    Sorry to bring this up a second time but it appears my first post has died a bit.

    "Shut up and get out if your going to be munster hating throughout this game."

    The above comment earned me an infraction for "back seat modding".

    It was then decided since I had gone off topic on two occasions that would be banned for 7 days.

    No.1

    I replied to Des stating I did not think it was backseat modding (at this point I had not seen the infraction)

    No.2

    Granted I had missed a warning in the thread to stay on topic (directed at everyone) I feel this ban is harsh.

    The two occasions that I was off topic were in direct response to posts addressed at me. (The first even being before the warning)
    Also i would argue this kind of thread ( live match ) leads to lots of posts in a short amount of time. I admit I did not have my full attention on every post in the forum and missed a few things going on (mainly the warning and the infraction recieved.) These are the reasons I feel a 7 day ban was not warranted.

    Also I would put forward I have never as much as been infracted previously in this forum. My past record on this forum I feel should have been taken into account when the decision was being taken to ban me.

    I have contaced Des by PM and was unable to resolve this.
    I also contacted the Cmods for Sports and was unable to resolve this.

    No fallen off. Posts just have to be approved. I'll close this as a duplicate :)
