Warning received

    Hello moderators, I recently received a warning on a Nova Noise thread as I questioned why one user had repeatedly accused a Radio station of fixing a competition without any proof of same and of now accusing the latest winners of the competition of collusion and some form of dishonest behaviour.

    I received a warning from a moderator contributing to the thread but the post I received the warning for did not abuse the poster. As per guidelines, I asked said moderator directly what was wrong with the supposedly bad post but the issue was not resolved.

    I have since reported the thread for it's continued unfounded accusations against the station and the latest winners (who are personally known to me) who are being slandered but have not yet received a reply. A similar previous thread about this competition was closed after similar comments.

    Thanks in advance for your help in finding a resolution to the warning and perhaps the contents of that thread.

    Hi Iyverbird1. Can you post links to the posts in questions for review?

    Also who was the mod you've been engaged with?

    Thanks.

    This is a link to the thread
    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057642371&page=20
    Posts 293,295 and 296 are three of the particular posts that state/imply the contest was fixed or a fake. One of these posts was made by the moderator in question, Hullabaloo.
    My reply advising that the contest was not a fix was deleted while the unfounded and untrue posts remained.

    Hello again and apologies for the delay completing this review. There seems to be quite a lot going on in the forum even beyond the thread.

    In this instance I'm going to uphold the mod decision as it was prudent to nip things in the bud.

    However there are some learnings from the wider issue that I'll take back to the team for review.
