IS this the appropriate place to inquire about a deleted/infracted post?

[opebo]

Ok, here's my post, and I can't figure out what part of it is supposed to be 'inappropriate'.  I got 7 out of 10 infraction points for this old post (it wasn't infracted for nearly am month), and it is totally unclear what is the problem.  Why don't you controllers explain?

Have to admit quite a bit now that I think of it.

Good man.

It really doesn't matter what specific things you may or may not agree whim him on, he agrees that's ok to anally rape drugged pre-teens while they cry and tell you to stop.  I'm not going to say everyone that is friendly with him is just as bad, but it certainly puts their judgement into question.

Poor ole dead0man is a bit worked up about the bum-bum in the hippy-days.  It is hard to see how this is relevant to the thread.

But I would note that for one who seems to cry a lot about 'moral' issues, daed0man does tend to use the offensive word 'whore' a lot.  If we're going to have a police state, I'd like to see him infracted for the use of this term, which after all is misogynistic. 

Is it the use of the word 'whore'?  Because I was precisely complaining about the fact that deadman is using this offensive word a lot.  Should I have only reported his use of the word?  Please clarify, as I don't know how to obey you.

Was it the term 'bum bum'?  How is that infractable?  It is a mild euphemism - would I have been ok to say 'the sexual intercourse' or 'the sexual acts' of  the hippy days?  Or was it the term 'hippy'? 

Was it the phrase 'anally rape'?  Because in that case I was only quoting dead0man...

Or was it that I stated that deadman's post was 'misogynistic'?  After all I suppose that is a criticism.  Should we never mention another members faults or errors and only report them? 

Again, please clarify, as I don't know how to participate in an obedient fashion.

The appropriate place to do this is via PM to the infracting moderator and/or Nym.  If they don't respond, then come here and post it for the forum to see.

opebo's writing style here reminds me of his hero's letter to Obama:

http://blogs.aljazeera.net/live/africa/libya-live-blog-march-19

I have all the people of Libya with me, and I'm prepared to die and we have all the men, children and women with me. Nothing more. Al Qaeda is an armed organisation, passing through Algeria, Mauritania and Mali. What would you do if you found them controlling American cities with the power of weapons? What would you do, so I can follow your example."

over the last month or two overt (or even hyperbolic, let us grant) criticisms of the Moderation situation (such as your 'police state') have become increasingly dangerous to make.

for instance, opebo, this post received 5/10 points, despite not being anything close to offensive, a personal attack, etc.




the lesson learned is, any criticism of the infraction system itself, and expression of an opinion that the personal accrual of infraction points is not a by-definition negative thing, is now dangerous to post.  pretty crazy stuff when you even look at where we were at with this stuff six months ago.

Rape isn't funny.

But it was dead0man talking about rape - I never mentioned it, Al.

Anyway, sorry about the non-PM, I have no idea who is the authority responsible for what I say on that particular board.  Is there some identifier telling one who is the official responsible for one's punishment in a particular case?

Perhaps there was confusion as to who said what.  I suspect it was unintentional, but from my reading over the thread and post, you seem to have edited one of dead0man's posts and put your text in a quote of his.
