Call To Power 2 Cradle 3+ mod in progress: https://apolyton.net/forum/other-games/call-to-power-2/ctp2-creation/9437883-making-cradle-3-fully-compatible-with-the-apolyton-edition
for the third time, I DID put him on ignore, but by that point he was in a secondary fight with the mods.
Way, way too late, though. Look, I don't want to come across as unduly critical - were I in your position, I may have made the same mistake that (I believe) you did. In fact, it's highly probable. Asher is good at what he does.
That's great. It's just something that probably should've happened sooner.
Maybe not the only thing that should have happened sooner.

B. Where I see the PM problem with the Mods is (and please take this constructively!) is the tone that is used in PMs. I believe that you can be firm without name calling or being confrontational. A simple statement of the rule broken, the penalty, and what is needed to be back. There is no reason for ongoing discussion unless the offending poster actually has a point to discuss. A nice out of jail {debt paid to society kind of thng) at release would be a good touch. Firm and Civil moderation will run no one off.

I'm sure that it only takes a bit of common sense to figure out that a forum does have rules.
CG's rules are in a simple sentence:
"In short, almost anything is welcome here except personal attacks on members or their families, deliberately and persistently posting in such a way as to reduce others' enjoyment of the site, posting anything that will get Counterglow kicked off the server or anything that will expose Counterglow to criminal or civil action in any jurisdiction."
The only bit I have ever seen get moderation for is "posting anything that will get Counterglow kicked off the server or anything that will expose Counterglow to criminal or civil action in any jurisdiction".

It means the administration is very open minded, and if you do something to get yourself kicked you definitely deserved it and no further explanation is really necessary.

yeah, PIF, OTOH, has 23 rules, and on the OT, has additional rules including
"Banned and Restricted Topics
1. Israel - Palestine Threads, or anything remotely linked to Arab-Jews relationship. (!!!)
2. Abortion or anything related.(!!!)
3. Advocating the murder, or celebration thereof of any individual, ethnic/religious/social group, etc.
4. Pure Spam Threads.
5. Psycho/sick related crimes such as rape, deliberate child abuse etc.
6. Threads discussing the legalization of drugs.(!!!!)
7. Posting Pics of people in states of undress, underwear or eroticism not appropriate for the home or office space.
8. Threads about the potential suicide of posters.
9. Threads regarding 9/11 Conspiracy Theories(!!!!!)
And yes, they enforce them, from what I can gather.
One reason I dont post there, is that they sticky their Post of the Month contest, which, when abbreviated, creates confusion for me.

Precisely.
Which is why it's hard to know whether to laugh or cry at this apparent outrage by some over the mods' continued attempts to get Asher back in line with a somewhat civilised posting behaviour to his name.
Unmoderated, he will start to hurt others in short order. That is, in part, what the "repeat offender" label refers to in his case. People should be able to deduce as much if they've paid any attention at all to what he's been posting inbetween bannings.
Btw, this is something that really should see increased moderator action.
I'm frankly surprised that b etor is still here.
She was taunted, abused, called a whore and what not by some posters. I'm not talking about the silly "FBI agent" jokes. She was really called a whore, or told that she's a nimphomaniac.
That thread got absolutely zilch moderator response, as far as I recall.
you will never be rid of me
you recall correctly. actually... no wait, I was the one who got in trouble for trolling.
