I have said, twice, and clearly: no more spam, and no out of forum links. I'm not sure why people think I don't mean what I say.
This thread has persisted FAR past the point we would normally just close it for relentless spam and rule violations, per Vhab's instructions. I doubt his leniency is going to last much longer.

Really now Anarrina .. cant you u just tell Vhab and whoever is there responsable ... to tell us something ??? I mean .. for some parts of the world ... is late night .. saturday ... tomorrow we go to work ... should we go to bed earlier tonight ??? Or there is any chance to play a little more tonight ???
I am sad there are a lot of people trying to get this topic closed, while there are some usefull posts in this thread and there can also be discussed in a normal manner.
Stop annoying the ARK's who can't do anything about the problems there are with the server. They can't help it, so don't blame it on them by annoying them!
il be happy with a free t-shirt <3 just saying
so the fix is banning frustrated peeps from forum and locking all threads related to servers problems ?
so now it's pay and stfu ?
this is seriously taking the piss now, been nearly 4h already :/ any update on whats actually going on or why this stuff is happening the past days? since yesterday we had a downtime to fix this
They havent banned any one frustrated. Only people posting non forum links. Which is due to people posting unopropriate (bad spelling) links. which is understandable
The server (or whatever) is borked! They are looking into it... (Untill further notice, I'm assuming the office cat is fine)
Now as to the 'heavy handed' moderation you're complaining about, think about it first...
How many people are posting here, today, right now? How many posts are being made?
With all the flaming going on at the moment (because we're pissed that our favourate game is down when we should be happily ignoring the pots in the sink and shouting at the kids to shut up because they've just got us killed by messing around), think how many posts Anna has to moderate!
IF she's being heavy handed, the reason is simple, she hasn't got the time to ***** foot around us all and pander to our individual griefs.
She HAS to make snap decisions on what is going down in REAL TIME.
So, if you want less snap decisions, cause less problems/infractions...
And before you ask me what I know about it, I moderate for AOU, Budabot, and another five forums that have nothing to do with AO, and I also ADMIN another three...

The person she was talking about was spamming muli-topics and he just posted porn in this thread :P so yes she has reason to be upset, ARK isn't "FUNCOM", "FUNCOM" is not removing your posts. ARK's are, if it wasn't for their volunteer work we'd be so over run its not even funny. And before you pick on arks for their free service they give you, how about you apply if you want petitions answered faster.
that post wasnt aimed at you. read it again. it says same thing u did basically
This is the last time I am going to explain this:
Questioning moderation in public is against the forum rules, and will receive infractions. If you have an issue, you may contact me via private messages.
This is a thread about the server downtime, not videos of hamsters, porn (another forum violation), or for "chatting and BSing". All else is off topic.
Attacking each other, Funcom, or moderators is not tolerated. You agree to follow instructions by using these forums, accept the consequences of that decision, please.
There are multiple places it is appropriate to "chat and BS" on these forums, Reet Retreat being one, LoRK being another (as long as its not spam). Go do it there, not here.
Multiple threads on the same topic are not useful, and will be removed. Reposting moderated material is against the rules, and will result in infractions.
