Banned from soccer

    I applied for access to soccer and was banned for 3 months. I applied 2 days before I should of. 3 months is a little bit excessive.

    Have you discussed this with the mod via PM?

    As you are banned from the Soccer Access Request forum you can only see what the mod posted when logged out

    The thread is here

    The message left by the mod was
    Three bans in a month since registering, keep your nose clean and reapply again in 3 month

    Now access remains at the discretion of local mods. The CMod can consider whether the rationale for denying access for 3 months is reasonable, but this is nothing to do with the timing of your request (although there is a 1 month ban for failing to follow the process correctly)

    So a 3 month ban is considered sufficient that's absolutely ludacris. So I'm being punished on this even thought I took me bans on each other thread they are actually accumulated against me. That's double punishment.

    The Soccer forum is different from any other open forum on this site Mods need to approve access. That's because it became infested with troublemakers. Access has, as long as I can remember, been at discretion of the mods

    The mod could just have denied access and there would be nothing you could have done about it. They have given you a 3 month timescale

    Anyway, I can ask a CMod to look at this, but even if the ban is lifted that will not give you automatic access to the forum. You still need to convince a Soccer mod to approve it

    Do you want a CMod to review this?

    I would appreciate that.

    Hi LMHC,

    You joined the site on May 25th (1 month, 3 days ago) and in that time you've managed to accumulate 1 warning, 1 infraction and 3 bans. 2 of these bans are for ignoring mod instructions.

    Soccer mods have concerns that your history suggests you could be a problematic poster in the Soccer forum. I happen to agree with their concern.

    The mod in question has banned you from the Access Request forum for 3 months, this will ensure that you wait 3 months before trying to gain access again. When you reapply in 3 months time hopefully your record will be much improved compared to today.

    Ban upheld.

    2 of the bans we're because I didn't know what a threadban was I was new to the forum. It's a shame your stopping posters engaging.

    The CMod has upheld the ban. As I've already reviewed this, if you do wish to appeal to an Admin I can confirm I would uphold the ban on the basis outlined by the CMod

    Resolved
