Nine what? Lives? I have 'em too 😊

Points. Not the good kind

They reset on the 1st don't they?.. only 16 days.. you can do it.

The hard part to deal with is that because I've had numerous warnings, I automatically get three points for anything, and apparently that doesn't expire. Three points is a major warning where examples include hate speech, blatant personal attacks, or posting images containing nudity. So, for example, if you're on super secret double probation and you post an innocent picture that may be taken the wrong way and then get popped for mentioning someone's grammar within two weeks, you're banned. So even if my points reset, it will be nearly impossible to make it another year without getting 10 points or whatever the magic number may be, when you have someone reporting every little thing that could be possibly stretched into a violation. It is what it is. I'm not protesting any moderators, I'm just breaking down that if you have someone, like another member, that doesn't like you, it's not hard for them to get rid of you. Everything has to do with what gets flagged and reported by your peers. You see multiple violations on a regular basis, but if you or I don't report it, nobody cares or looks twice at it. That's just the way it is on a site like this. If someone doesn't like you, it's very easy for them to expedite your departure.

I'll probably get banned for explaining this, but again, I'm not knocking or attacking any moderators at all. I'm simply explaining how the rules, as they are written, give a lot of power to regular contributors.

That sucks Brother, I'm sorry it works that way...

They definitely need to change the reporting system...

If you are found to be over reporting, reporting Bs, or targeting any specific someone with your reporting... You yourself should be pointed or banned...

This place has taken a noticeable dive in the last year... Because of the way the reporting system works
