If anyone was wondering what an Admin's day is like...
PM: The mod on XXXX is a basher/pumper and is deleting any post that doesn't help their agenda! This is not fair and they should be removed immediately!
Admin sends canned PM on how to request a review.
PM: They are controlling the conversation! They only want the good/bad stuff on the board! It says right in the rules "it is not the Moderators’ role to dictate bullish or bearish sentiment, command the "tone" of the content be along any particular investment sentiment, or favor one investment sentiment"
Admin: Here's the rest of that quote and notice the bold: "...it is not the Moderators’ role to dictate bullish or bearish sentiment, command the "tone" of the content be along any particular investment sentiment, or favor one investment sentiment over another when removing or restoring messages. (Please note the bold as this is a vital part of the sentence)."
Again, if you feel you've had a message deleted in error, do this.
PM: This is BS - it's not just my posts. ALL the positive/negative posts today were deleted! There was NO reason to delete ANY of the posts they removed today! There was NOTHING wrong with ANY of them.
Admin (checks recent deletions on board in question): Having checked recent deletions, the majority were removed because they were about other Users = off topic.
PM: BS - YOU are in on this TOO! There was NOTHING wrong with those posts. You should be ASHAMED of yourself siding with the basher/pumper! No wonder iHub has lost so many lawsuits!
Admin: Sends canned PM detailing with examples how to avoid talking about other Users in your posts.
Sends canned PM detailing how iHub has never lost any relevant lawsuit.
PM: You don't know who you're dealing with! This is illegal! You can't do this.
Admin: Sends canned PM explaining they can contact any agency if they believe illegal activity is occurring.
PM: WHY DO YOU KEEP SENDING ME COPY/PASTE PMs? ARE YOU EVEN A REAL PERSON?
Admin:
2 days later
PM: NOW that pumper/basher Mod has BANNED me from the board! This is why everyone is leaving this site to go to (insert any other social media site)!
Admin: Sends canned response explaining restriction and when it will be lifted.
PM: Pretty soon you won't have a job because no one will even be here! I don't care about your stupid site - I wouldn't post here again if you paid me!
Admin:
PM: I thought you said my restriction was for 2 weeks - I can still only post one post per day.
And, the cycle begins again...
