[QUOTE="Blueoptic, post: 310155, member: 48434"] [CENTER][B]Private Section - Help, Support & Reasonings[/B] The Help & Support section as I see it, has no actual influence in getting "help" from that specific area. It is poor, and unorganized. I would like to propose why I see that it has no strength, and what can be added to make the section valid for what its intended to be. [/CENTER] I made a recent support thread profound to why I was wrongfully banned from the Shoutbox. For what I had read, from the members who replied; saying there was a Global Rules list. But for none of which I posted that had any influence to my punishment. I was banned for posting a "Pop-up link" that was directed to the theme "Halloween" as we know of it as; Spooky, Scary, Funny, NON HARMFUL. As is, the link I posted wasn't even anything to be scared of, but intended only if someone were to have volume on, as the screen flashed a face concealing "Jeff the Killer." My intent was to have the Shoutbox members reactions. Ex; "Haha good one, that was a spooky scare, you sure got me there!" Happy Halloween, or not.. I was banned without any consent of "Notification, Warning, Message," anything. I don't even know who did it. I completely disagree on the fact that any Moderator, has the access to ban anywhom without argument. No reason, I see that as easy abusive power. For what I was told, I'm suppose to redirect my problems to "any" staff member. Canadian Said: [IMG]http://i57.tinypic.com/2udxd9g.png[/IMG] In my response I said: What do you think of myself being banned for what I shared here in the "Help and Support" section?

How to fix the "Help and Support" Section [LIST=1] [*]Validate how help and support can be reached, with numerous options; type of help (Personal account information, Players, staff, Mutes, Bans etc) [*]Make 2 sections dealing with Public/Private Support; The public; member responses/staff Vs The private; staff response only.
