there was a time where one locked a witch roleplay because they thought it would turn into a Wiccan ritual lmao
but things that happened to me? well
I just said "this place is empty lol" on the last Monday of the old forums and got banned for it even though I had spent 3 months straight doing nothing but referencing a very nsfw opera that broke like all the forum rules
other Mod-related story (really long): so the spongebob layout guy, right? so I was in their cringey edgelord clan on a mission to take it over and get rid of the "no gays!!1!1!" rule on it like a fanclan woody collective. so I slowly took over the rp until I was basically the leader and head of it all. (spongebob had like 1 character and it was a total Mary Sue anyway lmao) I was expecting this person to be banned because they were like the most passive-aggressive crap but no, they went down in a blazing war with the mods personally emailing them because they got rid of their bible quote in their signature that was like "sinners burn in hell believe in jesus" or whatever. SO THE MODS JUST UP AND BANNED THEM. that was how they got banned, and watching it was honestly hilarious. I then took over the clan, got rid of the "no gay" rule (which by this point I had obviously broken anyway), and kept it running until it died out not long later. That was the only time I actually liked the mods

I was making an rp (which was going to be a group thing, btw) and as I was putting it together it got deleted because 'private threads aren't allowed' which I guess was because of the dnp in the title?? idk but I was so confused
mostly though nothing ever really happened that wasn't the usual

OOC My friend and I were clearly joking, even talking about how we should write a story about hacking, and the mods banned us both. When I emailed them about it, do you wanna know why we were banned? For talking about hacking Walmart. Like??? Okay first of all, that thread was very clearly a joke, second, it was mostly about Walmart, third, couldn't you have just given us a warning or something?

This is why I love this site way more, you can't do anything on the original without offending a mod. Seriously. These guys here actually care and gives us a chance.

I got banned for trying to help someone who was suicidal. Apparently it's an adult topic and I should have just let them die.

My Walking Dead rp got deleted 10 times, 10, before a mod finally explained zombie rps weren't allowed, as per ghost rules. Ghost rules were the stupidest thing ever. Like, I had no idea zombie rps weren't allowed because it wasn't actually in the rules. So a lot of work got deleted over and over again...
But other than that and being pretty biased on this site(some mods, not all), I haven't really had any problems.

Remember when only straight (and cis) people were allowed on wcf? I was openly ace and bi, I had pride colors in my signature, all of that. After a flame war (in which I was a very active participant) my signature got deleted but there were no consequences when I put it back.
Then I reported a thread that was in the wrong place and got banned for it.
Edit: the mods also flipped out at me when I emailed in Nov 2015 to ask if the "no gay" rule was gone. They were adamantly clear that they would NEVER EVER clarify a rule and I was NOT to ask them questions!!!
Edit 2: summer 2012 when Matt was deleting all of my art (which had blood warnings) for having minor blood while Elizabeth was in FAQs telling everyone there was no rule against blood in art.

Oh, there was also the time a mod deleted a picture in my siggie for it not being an original work of my own and stealing it from somewhere else. It was my original picture that I myself drew.

I made a thread that was supposed to be pure and encouraging. I think it was called "brag about yourself?" Because I'd noticed a trend in OTD that many forumers like to constantly put themselves down. So I challenged people to list things about themselves that they liked, were proud of, etc. When I logged back on later the thread had been deleted. Maybe some drama went down while I was offline, but I guess I'll never know.

I was banned once for correcting someone (I think it was about homosexual-like behavior in animals), and another time for putting a banner from Warriors Wish in my siggie.

I was suspended for continuous bumping. I had several one-shots in WFF, that I had posted and bumped within days or at least twelve hours of each other.

How has nobody mentioned getting banned for being LGBT? It happened in my friend group like once a month.
I also jokingly told my friend I would eat them once and then promptly got banned for "kit killing." Okay, then.

Looking back at all of this... what was wrong with the mods? Like seriously the things they did on here sound like mini dictators

Got banned for 'harassment' because some girl didn't like me talking to her 'mate' and i wouldn't leave his thread after she said some nasty things to me.
Got banned for saying the word edgy/being previous forum user edgy who I to this day have no knowledge of who they are and they were unwilling to lift the ban even after i brought it to their attention and they basically just all told me "Lol tough luck kid ¯\_(ツ)_/¯".
Got banned for 'copying without permission' because the name of my clan was the same as another persons clan & I'm sorry but FireClan is uncreative in the first place so.

how about that guy posting gore/**** and nothing happened for hours but if you said you were gay you got banned in 0.3 seconds Having your fancy text "LOVE IS LOVE" signature deleted every other hour because of the no religion and politics rule, but watching the Christian side of the WCF keep their crosses and Bible verses in with literally no sign of punishment.

I actually once saw someone get in trouble for having a bible verse in their signature. i cant remember if they got banned but i definitely remember their signature getting deleted for going against the rules Also didn't that one shrimp guy get banned for what he did? not to argue or anything. I just remember a few times.

- I got suspended for reporting several rule-breaking posts. After I got suspended, my Fanatic Challenge avatar disappeared and it was years before I got it back. - Some of my art got taken down because the mods claimed I had stolen it. - They deleted one of my Pokemon role plays because they were worried we'd share our Friend Codes.

I got posts edited for mentioning the names of sites, since apparently it was "linking" even though I didn't have the ".com" ending or anything. Despite me previously convincing JanaM to remove "warriorswish" from the censor (which she did do). And despite Joe S saying that it was okay to say "google this and click on the first result" as long as you weren't actually posting the URL. Ghost rules were the stupidest thing ever. To be fair that wasn't entirely their fault - technically most were basically already covered in the rules, even though they took them to an excessive extreme. To change anything, they had to go through HarperCollins' legal department, which if you were around when an Art Forum was very much needed, it takes a long time. Editing rules or subforums on a children's catbeardog site, which doesn't bring them any income, isn't exactly a high priority thing for their legal department.

The mods were all excessively touchy and inconsistent. I almost feel like they never actually communicated with each other about issues at all they just went yeah sure whatever and did as they pleased.
