    You are entitled to from an opinion. My concern was your "opinion" was being presented as "fact". I therefore challenged you as I thought that was an unfair and biased way to present your own views (or "opinion" as you like to call it), as my experience (which arguably involves dealing with more disputes than anyone else on this site) is different. I therefore chose to offer my own experiences to counter what it appeared to me to have been presented as a fact

    So what you're going to attempt to tell us all is that you've been across all cases of bans/cards and ensuing DRP threads and there is zero evidence of what I outlined?

    I don't believe that at all, sorry. I've personally had years old infractions/bans used against me in fact.

    I was also a moderator of Legal Discussion for a number of years and can see the deterioration in moderation quality and general attitude across the site generally.

    I now see, unfortunately, that this thread is proof of nothing less than the site admins saying:

    1) We don't care about your concerns;
    2) We don't care about your suggestions;
    3) We don't care about our users.

    All whilst taking a tone that is, frankly, unwarranted and undeserved.

    Now that is actually not my opinion, that is fact based on the way this thread has gone.

    But not too many, otherwise you'll be targetted.

    To be devils advocate here in a sense, I can agree with how some individuals are treated in DRP, there does appear to be an inconsistency there yes, at least in my opinion absolutely.

    However I have been sitebanned and racked up numerous infractions and I personally have never had them used against me, by any moderator, CMod or admin, including Beasty, who has personally bestowed me with a whack of the ban hammer.

    The problem is the difficulty in reading a tone over text, which I can see there being a problem with tat may lead to the feeling of disdain being thrown towards those in DRP. It all depends on how we as individuals interpret the moderators/CMods/admins posting style and I think once you’ve interacted with them (not in the DRP) you get a sense for how they post, if you get me?

    My experience is obviously not the same as others but there’s reasons for that and we should all be in agreement that these reasons exist and we need to work on addressing them.
