I'd make a fantastic mod
To be fair, you replied to stuff and flaunted what made everybody else angry all the time. You should have had the common sense to just post what you liked and be like Lil B and not give a hoot what others thought. Instead, you repeatedly replied to other people antagonizing you, thus extending the drama yourself. Because of this influx of posts that had nothing to do with the thread's original topic, you were banned, seeing as how you were the one continuing the drama. I understand that this is pretty much blaming the victim, but you really could have be a lot more graceful in the way you handled this. Instead, you consistently argued with people that you should have given no fucks about. You may have never been "seeking to cause conflict with anyone" but you went out of your way to extend conflict when it did arise, thus derailing the thread for everyone else that just wanted to post, on numerous occasions.
It's called provocative for a reason. It will provoke a response, in this case derailment of an art thread with more drama. Which is exactly what happened due to your actions.I also make this post to further highlight the hypocritical attitude toward me in the thread. ... I make a reply to Denizen to deal with it already... I also posted provocative Squigly art...
This in itself is continuing the discussion, and is most likely the reason you got banned.
Look I'm gonna agree with warped right now. Though i might not know the full story this should be good advice to anyone. And trust me I know thread/forum hate on this site.To be fair, you replied to stuff and flaunted what made everybody else angry all the time.

In the end, not everyone on an online forum is going to agree about everything. They're called forums for a reason. You need to consider this, and realize that no matter where you go in life, someone exists that does not agree or is hostile to the opinion you have. You have to do what you will with that, and deal with it accordingly. You had Cell's approval to post, and if anything, if other people kept on giving you shit about it without you responding to them every time just about, they probably would have gotten infractions and you wouldn't be banned.
this is most certainly not helping your case. i do not think cellsai would appreciate being told how to do his job.I was recently unjustly banned from the General Fanart Thread by @Cellsai, and I demand to be unbanned immediately.
there is no reason for you to treat others in the same manner, and just because they are rude does not make your actions right.In summary, I've been picked on, shittalked about, had my reputation ruined, and now have been banned, all while NEVER seeking to cause conflict with ANYONE; the only times I have EVER negatively addressed anyone is when they've antagonized me first. There is NO reason I should have to be treated like this. UNBAN.
denizen got a temp ban at that time for his actions.
- Several people (particularly @Denizen) begin insulting and condemning me and my post due to it being underage/Squigly content
there was pic dumping threads all over the place before, there was no complaint either. Still got removed.despite the fact that both underage AND provocative Squigly content had been posted before with no complaint
You can't do something and say you're not doing it at the same time. That's not how it works.I post more provocative Squigly art, while stating upfront that I do not intend to turn the thread into "the NSFW Squigly thread".
quoting the same post from cellsai your link leads to :
Looks like you didn't.
You can't choose what your reputation is. Others do.
Just a detail : the first reason we spoiler things in the art thread is to avoid making the page gigantic. Nothing related to the issue at hand, just wanted to precise this. I know, most people don't do it. They should.prompts me to speak back up with this post
fumako just got warned. Should he have been temp ban? Dunno.
Considering a lot of your replies during the various underage arguments consisted in posting more NSFW squigly pics, I wouldn't be surprised some people considered your last post as a "fuck you and deal with it" reply. I took it that way, at least.one final warning to drop all discussion on this subject under penalty of warning/ban, and (THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT), I do just that and don't bring it up again in my next post
Every trolling post I see in the page this link leads to has a "user got warned for that post" banner.
and has instead chosen to leave them up whilst editing/deleting my own attempts to explain myself
The attacking posts were left on the thread to warn others, as this way people can see what gets you warned.
You can also use the report button instead. Not before or after replying to them. INSTEAD. Would probably make the mods more inclined to help you.
Then you're doing something horribly wrong, because there are quite a few people who think that's your main goal in this forum.
was about to say something about that. Instead I'll just think it very loud.
the reason people do not complain about NSFW about underage characters such as peacock or filia is because nobody has made a "peacock appreciation thread" or a "filia appreciation thread" and praised them as if the love for these characters should be a cult or consistently posted pictures of their ass and tits. deny this all you want, but this is generally what is witnessed by most forum members.
I honestly don't quite understand what you mean here. Can you explain that again?Uh, "No Fun Allowed" rule?
People seem to flaunt that rule around like it's nothing even though Cellsai had said it many times in the art thread and that also happens to Number 13 too on the Off-topic thread. This isn't a nudge to any of the mods and is purely a question since the clear and complete rule has never been stated about "No Fun Allowed" and only those three words are being used many times.
In previous discussions where we do have 'fun' or is considered to be having fun you or other mods in this case said that we're not allowed to, not in a particular way too, it's just "(A few lines of words to describe the problem) and then skip to the ambiguous No Fun Allowed rule". I don't quite understand what it means by that.
'No Fun Allowed' is not an actual rule. It's just something that people usually say when us mods step in to stop an off-topic discussion or do some other moderator action. It's basically people complaining that we're spoiling all their fun.In previous discussions where we do have 'fun' or is considered to be having fun you or other mods in this case said that we're not allowed to, not in a particular way too, it's just "(A few lines of words to describe the problem) and then skip to the ambiguous No Fun Allowed rule". I don't quite understand what it means by that.
Sorry if this problem doesn't occur anymore in discussions, but this one rule kept bugging me and I need to ask it away as soon as possible.
I tried to be reasonable in here. I defended the posting of sexy Squigly posts in here because it's everyone's right to do that as per the forum rules. @LockjawsSaga has repeatedly rubbed this ruling in the face of others and generally made a nuisance of himself in this thread while under the guise of just posting Squigly art and I've had enough, so he will now be banned from this topic.
I know everyone likes to throw around the "No Fun Allowed" sign when I show up in threads, but I try to use moderator actions as rarely as I can. I really hate having to resort to banning people, even from just specific threads like this but I've just had enough in here.
Ah, okay. Thanks for the reassurance.
I have never once posted anything that could be even slightly considered NSFW in neither the current Squigly thread nor the previous one. Check it for yourselves and see. I even say in the opening post to keep pictures PG. The lies being told about me are outrageous.
SEXUALLY provocative. There is no reason my posts should've "provoked" ANY kind of response to begin with when no lewd/nsfw art posted before me ever did.
Fucking REALLY. You're saying out of my ENTIRE post history, the only thing I've ever posted about is Squigly's butt. Again, this shit is outrageous.
That's not my fucking point. My point is that I was the only one who's ever been singled out on this, even when there are people here who actively draw Skullgirls porn.
Did you not see where I specifically said "I ask for moderator intervention and am offered none"? Learn to fucking read.
Nice coming from you, considering you're the one who actually APPROVED of my initial Squigly post. If you'd never said anything I would've taken it that no one was interested and none of this shit would've ever happened.
Uh no, I changed it to that before this even happened. Pay attention next time.
One of the main points of this thread is so that people who are unhappy with moderation rulings can voice their complaints and have them discussed, which is what LockJaws is doing. Please don't be a jerk, Hidgerknight.@Cellsai Remember when you said that we need to stop taking this conversation back up again?
I guess Lockjaws didn't listen.
Don't talk like I'm not here.@Cellsai Remember when you said that we need to stop taking this conversation back up again?
I guess Lockjaws didn't listen.
Again, you're saying that all I have EVER done is post/talk about Squigly in a sexual manner, which couldn't be further from the truth. Was I just invisible to you people before posting in the fanart thread or something?Lock, why do you feel the need to talk constantly about Squigly and why in that way. Why do you bring these things in public. Why do you want people in a public forum to know.
It's pretty clear that you make your posts for only your own pleasure, because everyone else either doesn't care or doesn't find it appropriate. You can use your personal folders or random image sites to spam Squigly's butt, but this is a place of public discussion. You don't seem to want to obtain any sort of discussion.
My point stands. You're saying that the majority of what I post is sexual content of Squigly, and I'm saying that is complete horseshit.i'm guessing your reading grades were poor or below average in gradeschool.
strange, since you accused dragonos of not being able to read. if you'd like to discuss hypocrisy, we can revisit that post you made demanding to be unbanned, and i can reiterate what i said all over again.
in a different manner.
so that maybe.
you'll understand.
I have not twisted ANYTHING, that is exactly what you are saying. If that isn't the case, I don't need to learn how to read, YOU need to learn how to better phrase your statements.

lol
Are you fucking kidding me?
Yeah
When's Bellallama admin yo
I have never once posted anything that could be even slightly considered NSFW in neither the current Squigly thread nor the previous one...
SEXUALLY provocative. There is no reason my posts should've "provoked" ANY kind of response to begin with when no lewd/nsfw art posted before me ... Tell me again how I'M supposed to be the villain here?
Don't you dare "tone police" me. I have absolutely NO obligation to be "nice" to anyone when they rampantly attack me. I'm pissed, and rightfully so.
@Muro, @StairwaytoDolphinCreature and @Denizen made the thread unstable when they caused conflict and drama by saying I was posting "disgusting corpse butt" (which according to the mods is perfectly okay, yet nothing I'd said was). As I've repeatedly said, I did NOT start any of this, yet people are treating me like this is MY fault. How is this at all fair?
Make all the claims you want, I'm NOT just going to sit by idly as people character assassinate me. You're goddamn right I'm going to fight it.
5-7-5, correct? it's been a bit since i've done one of these.
I should answer this since I'm the mod for that area and caught this despite that other conversation happening here...Too many misunderstandings that I have made >_<
Well, I guess I'll make it up to that with another question regarding the state of the Offtopic subforum since I don't exactly want to be a part of the problem.
Okay, so, Media dumps. Are we still allowed to post them on old threads that require you to post pictures of 'X' or videos of 'Y'? Or no?
A good example is this thread. Even though it's inactive I would like to ask first if I am still allowed to post car crash sounds in any way shape or form or not.
I'm honestly gonna have to play the devil's advocate and sorta side with Lockjaws here. I may not know anyone here well, but outside the Fanart thread, I hardly see any issues. Yes, I've seen the Squigly appreciation thread, it really isn't that big a thing, IMO, and Lockjaws has done quite a bit for the fan game community on here. However, I do have to agree that the biggest issue here is the responses to others. I didn't even see a problem with the pcitures posted, I guess the issue was with the rampent off-topic discussions chains that amounted from the Squigly art. Based on everything, I can see why Lockjaws was banned from it, however it wouldn't be a problem if they were to rein in some of the replying to conversations that should die at the start (like the underage arguement.)
