Have you ever had one overturned?




Have you also heard that it's hard to get a moderation overturned on this site? That it's heavily biased in favor of not overturning? Could be wrong. Have you ever had one overturned? How many?

Not that long ago, I was modded for disruptive because I responded to a pic someone has posted from their phone with quotes from an ad shown in the pic that was in another language. My post was just "<ad text non-English> indeed" which is technically disruptive but I argued anyway and it got overturned with an apology from the 2nd mod saying it shouldn't have been deleted.

I had a bunch of other overturns but they were ages ago

I contest every single one even when I know they're fair and I'll even make up bullshit arguments just to see how the mods respond to them.

why do you want to see how the mods respond to them? I never like to see the responses cause most of the time the responses are asinine.

I think there was only one I tried to overturn. I was on the Smash Bros. U board. I had made a moveset for Crazy Dave. And got modded for off topic posting.

I fought it saying Crazy Dave appeared on the DS. The mod told me the character didn't have a chance do he kept the moderation. Which really pissed me off, seeing some of the characters who made it in

I've only contested one I can remember for P4 spoilers... but they were either listed on the game case or the gfaqs description. Got it overturned.

I had a moderation undone (without my consent even) way back on the Animal Crossing Wild World boards, from asking for hacked items (it turned out to not really be against the ToS).

they are asinine, but I would never show any admission of guilt on this site. Fuck that bullshit. I used to, but that was back when it was run well.

Yes I posted a video of a woman falling into an escalator (she died btw) and it got me warned
But it wasn't against the TOS since there is no gore, it's like it's not wrong to post car crashes videos

This. I contested to lead mod with what I thought were good arguments to support my position (essentially that I was telling the truth in my post), but they did nothing.

In complete fairness I don't quite think this was my experience. In my case, I was modded because someone thought I posted spoilers for a game, and I'm pretty sure the mods who got my case had never played the game in question.

Now if either of them had played it, then the "talking in circles" thing is completely accurate, but I'm assuming they just didn't know enough and were trusting whoever marked me.

Yes. I think it was voting for the best kanye west song and I said "gay fish", and the moderator thought I was calling someone gay as an insult. (At the time I was active in the Lesbian scene in San Franciso so...).

They overturned it with a response like "oops my bad".

Wait that actually happened in those topics

Lol

Anyway I think there was one time I got modded for talking about the VC for "illegal activities" and I got that overturned. That was like 2007

No. I don't get modded often but when I do they are pretty extreme things. However, I also don't contest even ones that I think could be overturned. I fully expect the majority of the mods and such to be complete sheep that have drunk the koolaid.

I remember one.

I posted a topic about Ashley Olsen dying... thinking it was the celebrity, instead of a person in Florida. I got marked for trolling I think?(Spreading false info I imagine). I explained to the moderation that I made a mistake and wasn't trying to cause any trouble. Thankfully they agreed and took back the karma loss.


Still a little embarrassed I didn't double check the info on that one. I'm usually better than that.

I don't get moderated often and it's never a karma loss, so I usually just accept it.

I did get a "spoilers without warning" deletion overturned once for posting that Mallow isn't really a tadpole.

Recently I got modded for sarcastically insulting @MoogleKupo141 in response to someone misunderstanding his post, and even said in spoiler tags at the bottom "mods this is obviously a joke".

They didn't care.

yeah that was the joke

I was posting a "spoiler" that wasn't really a spoiler and got hit for it anyway

I forget what the context was though
