Quote:Do not spam or shitpost.
Do not repost the same thread or reply to a thread with the intention of cluttering space or derailing a topic. Do not repeatedly pm members or staff for the same reason or for seeking help on a topic, there is likely an appropriate forum section to ask in. Do not post in important sections without proper form and reason. For example, do not post fake applications or ban requests with not format or proof. A shitposting section was created for joke threads that will not clutter the forums. These posts will be deleted, warned, and may lead to the ban of the account in serious situations.
Thanks for posting this, B0T.
My intention was never to clutter space on a thread or derail the topic. In fact, I think you'll find quite a few of my "shitposts" are actually on topic, albeit making a joke of said topic.
Also, this
"For example, do not post fake applications or ban requests with not format or proof."
Was this person's thread deleted and were they warned?

It might be that they were working for somebody else (like the case with a mod banning somebody because somebody else asked them too.) It just seems like this is attacking sarcasm for doing what he's told and following the rules. But that's just my take on it as somebody from the outside attempting to look in.
As a former staff member, I realize that the staff work with each other sometimes. For instance, a TTT Trusted has a Moderator ban somebody instead of making a ban request because it saves time. I understand this. It's also the job of the person handing the punishment out to make sure there is a good reason to be handing out a punishment.
I am not the only person to have noticed a problem with warns being handed out like candy. As he said above, Foxka has noticed this, and so have other community members that have chosen not to speak up as of right now.
Outside of the community, I have no problems with Sarcasm. I have talked with him multiple times and I'd say we are on good terms. I don't know where you're getting the notion that I was attacking him for doing his job, because I have not done that at all. I didn't even mention him in the first post. I realize the second one could be misconstrued that way and I apologize for not being more clear in what I was saying. The point I'm trying to get across in this unban request overall is that everybody needs to just chill. You don't need to delete and warn people for every joke being made that isn't in the shitposting section.
Sarcasm, dong, Titan, and Nicol are currently the only admins. Yes, Sarcasm has warned me the most. I cannot see how many times he's warned me overall, but 3 of my past 5 warns are from him. The other 2 are from dong and matt_st3 (Strongrule). Do I think Sarcasm is out to get me on purpose? No, not at all. I understand he's doing his job. It just seems like he's over-doing it.

Maybe I'm reading this wrong (and if so, then I'm sorry, please tell me) but yes, I've gotten quite a bit of warnings. That's not going to stop me from cracking jokes when I see the opportunity to get a few laughs. I believe the line between shitposting and not has been blurred a lot and things that are not shitposts but are still jokes are being seen as shitposts and are being deleted, which I don't think is fair.
edit: oh my god im so sorry for the text wall
