Everything was going fine, but then that ol' devil showed up and Yeeeeeeeeehhhaaaaaawwwww! (some old movie I saw lately)

I am submitting a FOIA request. All PM messages from the beginning of time need to be released to the public.

You can see transcripts of all PMs where they are stored in room 101.

Well I haven't been slapped down yet so here goes.
I know a little about websites and I also have interest in datamining, politics, spin and of course guns.
Austin, who would have thought?


For a website content is king.
A Forum's life's blood is drawn from the quality of it's posts.
TGT's average daily post count is down over 40% from late January to mid May.


Since TGT is now a commercial operation I would think that's a problem.

Could be a lot of reasons for that. A big one being that weather is nicer now and people may be moving back out in to the real world again.

The site also goes through phases tied to political activity, gun related political activity (new or changing laws), troll waves, Hicksville meets, etc.


Aside from that, I'm sure the site owners track such information and as of now it hasn't been brought up. I'll assume it's not something being viewed as an internal issue at this time.

Anytime you have a concern or recommendation don't hesitate to PM.

That's my stance anyways.

Be aware, responding to PM's from some moderators can get you banned. No I'm not referring to YG.

 

[Mexican_Hippie]

Yeah, when you're completely out of line in the PM, absolutely.

Well, I'd be pissed, too, if you responded to every PM with dick pics.

Is there a rule against posting pm's. Because I don't think completely out of line even comes close anything I said I said. Since you claim it was I should be able to post the exchange to refute it right?

You're one post away from a perma ban.


You acted foolish and got your hand slapped. It's about to get slapped harder.

Now what? I can't mention I got banned? I can't respond to claims about what got me banned? I can't ask questions? I just can't post? Tell me the rules because "Don't do anything someone doesn't like" is a bit hard to follow.

 

[Younggun]

Not in this fashion.

Also, your out of posts now.

It's permanent this time.


He acted completely out of line in PMs with mods and wants to drag his shit out as soon as his ban ends. That's why he's gone now.


I believe PMs should remain private but his original ban was well deserved. Shoulda just moved on.

Funny, I was thinking that this wasn't going to end well, and that was knowing nothing about anything going on...not much difference between mods and dragons...

 

[Mreed911]

I'll just say that this doesn't seem right. Now we're enforcing that if a story is told, only one side gets told.

 

[Mreed911]

In the spirit of things happening in the shadows... a PM with a mod I'm now afraid to name, as they appear to be a "protected class."

The site owner recommended he have time off due to his PMs. MH did everything he could to be fair, bones refused to be reasonable.

I'm sorry you have such little faith in our ability to be fair (and I mean that), but I doubt the PMs will be made public.

Keeping everything in the shadows and banning someone who's not being profane, offensive or otherwise rude/egregious seems shady, is all.

Classy...
