Basically the short version of the events was, in a social anxiety forum, I had a short public exchange with someone... Basically out of sheer curiosity, I asked what brought her to the forum. Let's call this person "Juanita"--not her real username but I want to be careful. I noticed Juanita's profile said she was a social worker for a living, and I was curious how they managed to do that work while having social anxiety. Juanita responded by saying "I don't feel I need to answer to anyone," which I felt was terse.
Rewind a bit: Before this happened, this same person was involved in a tiff with someone else, and Juanita then asked TWICE could a mod please remove her account. Instead, the other person got banned, and the mods did not fulfill Juanita's request. SO.. based on that, I thought asking to have your account removed cannot be done publicly, you have to PM the mods directly to do that. Or so I thought.
My response to Juanita's terse remark was:
"can a mod liek rmve accnt or sumting, dis person mean"
Anyone with half a brain could tell that was sarcastic right?
I went back to the forum today and it says I have been banned.. reason: Requested by user
Date lifted: Never
WTF?!?
I had friends on that forum and discussions ongoing, I certainly did not expect such a silly comment would get me perm-banned, and I expected that if the comment was seen as inflammatory, I would be given a temp-ban. Not over there apparently. F**kers. Sorry, I had to say it.
ME ANGRY
I know one person who has an email address of one of the mods, I've asked if they could help me out, but I doubt it will work.
I want to rejoin and preferably have the ban lifted.. is such a thing possible in your opinion? Anyone?
