Not sure about here, but sadly I remember from other forums that mods and admin can do stuff to members simply cause they feel like it, maybe they had a bad day and are grumpy or something

like one forum from several years ago, the staff there banned one member - their reason? she said no to becoming a mod - then when that member they decided to blame willowtigger and punish her - their reason for that? she was offline due to time zone differences, she loged on to the news of that member's departure and a crapload of nastiness from the staff

They are the reason I find it so hard to begin to trust staff on forums

so yeah, when dealing with me they need to follow their words with actions, but not in a traumatic way like harsh stuff

but yeah i'm making myself a trauma again remembering that place

what i'm trying to say is i have more reason than most to miss trust forum staff cause 99% of them on any forum are out to get me, the proof is how i been treated so many times by them

its one place out of several that did me more damage

willowtigger off topic now
