Can we or I know what was that good reason? Because Tiger's are free, so no paid mods, this can't be the reason. I don't think it had anything copyrighted or was inappropiate. He was an old memeber and to just dissapear seems strange.

We just see content removed without any explanations and just seems weird. How can we trust that we won't get banned or topics removed if the reasons are always kept secret? that means that moderators can do whatever they want, full power, no details. And that seems wrong in this day and age.

If X did something wrong, ok, temp/full ban or whatever. But without public reasons just seems shady.

edit: i rememebr when it was a ban for somebody for some nazzi signs i think in a mod. Then it was explained. I wish we could get details for content/mods removal. that's all. keep the topic for a week, edit first post and write the reason.

One of the reasons why ban/removal reasons aren't published is that when a modder switches to paid mods we don't want to advertise that fact by loudly announcing it.

We can't announce all other reasons, because it's then obvious that if we don't say why it because of paid mods.

I can understand not advertising paid mods, but the entire lack of transparency seems wrong and something should be done (probably SCS can change this). To see the people and the content dissapear is not ok. Every day people try to help eachother here and then... puff. Gone. Not ok.

What about that, if not an exact reason can be given, which is understandable, what about referring to what forum rules section was broken, this does not give an exact reason, e.g. when we look especially section 2 of the rules but atleast makes it a bit more transparent.
I am not giving any sort of support, requests or Q&A through private messages, such messages will be ignored. Please use the appropriate topics, they are there for a reason.

At the end of the day, if it's a rule break, that is between the moderators and the individual.

We don't discuss reasons for actions taken against other members and their posts/topics, if the individual wishes to let it be know that is their prerogative, not ours.

How can the individual make the reason public if he's banned?

Just noticed the option to display a post from a member who is on one’s foe list has disappeared. Is this on purpose? While it may look inconsequential at first sight, I still want to look at such posts at times without having to remove them from the foe list, read the post and then add them back.

Yeah not at the cost of a potential increase in the blood pressure. What we have right now is better :P
