If Even Just One Honest Person Gets Wrongly Banned, Then Are Any Of Us Really Safe?
Wednesday, March 5th, 2008Regarding DigitalPoint.com forums:
If even just one honest person gets wrongly banned, then are any of us really safe?
• In the last month, I did use the proper procedures to report bad posts, at least twice.
• I admit making one single mistake, and then repeating the one single mistake ~7 times (within 5 or 10 minutes)
• For this I have been banned for 6 whole months.
Questions:
If enough other members care about the quality of DP, then why was the graphics and multi-media sub-forum over-run with ~50% spam (on the first page of new posts)?
If DP has enough good quality mods, then why was the graphics and multi-media sub-forum over-run with ~50% spam?
Since I admitted making one single mistake, and repeating the one single mistake ~7 times, is there any chance the mod who banned me for 6 whole months also made a mistake?
I’m not looking to ‘bend the rules’, it seems as though I received ~7 infractions for one single 5 minute period of attempting to help make DP better. Isn’t there any limit on infractions per hour for a related offense?
Shouldn’t there be?

Considering what I actually did and why:
I have put a lot of time and effort into my experience at DP, and should not have to wait six months to return. Please, either reconsider my current status, or make me wonder why I ever spent so much time here.
Thank you.
