Adverts Ban? - 10days up? - No action

NullZer0 · 2007-09-11 14:15:41

I think this is the right place to post. Please excuse me if it isn't! Anyway, I got a 10day ban from adverts on the 28th and I am still not back on. I have PM's the mod (Wizzard) twice and no reply. Whats the story here?

It's automatic and will unban you when the time is up.

Please use the report post/ad button/link in future to report a post

You are being banned for 10 days for thread spoiling
ding_dong will also receive a ban for abuse.

Please familiarise yourself with the rules in your time off

Thanks,
WizZ

Suppose I'm wrong?

From the 'It's up in 3 hours' post above I can deduct (using the bat cave computer) that at the time of that particular post you had been banned from 9 days and 21 hours. 3 hours after that you should be unbanned.

You didn't get a 10 day ban, you got a 14 days ban or you got a 336 hour ban.

Well I should have been notified? - or if not why not?
You can't have one rule for one and different rule for others.

I know Im not gonna win this one... but you know what I think anyway.

Just wait the two hours? Don't make an argument, you'll be told time and time again to wait 2 hours.

You weren't notified because it was a mistake unknown to the moderator.

I'd imagine that WizZard banned you for 10 days, and notified you of it. Then CuLT, not realising WizZard had already banned you, banned you for 14 days and didn't notify you (because you get notified if you try to access the site anyway).

If you're already banned for a certain amount of time, and another mod comes along and bans you for a different amount of time, the second ban ousts the first one.

Of course, I could be way off track, but this would be my guess.

Strange... haven't noticed any notification just a blank forum.
Nothing saying that I am banned.

WizZard requested the ban, I applied it (we have a two-tier review system for applying bans).

He requested two weeks and, I assume, told you ten days. He is not around presently to defend himself so I will give him the benefit of the doubt and assume you were accidentally misinformed.
