re: oops...prisonchaplain just got banned from another lds site

[prisonchaplain]

Do chat rooms run filters on particular words? I was at another site's chat room, talked about butter beer (Harry Potter fame), and suddenly was "banned" without warning.

[Vort]

Let that be a lesson to you filthy heathens. Never talk about anything stronger than root beer{{BANNED}}

[Quin]

Tsk. Tsk.

Naughty.

Write "I will not talk about beer" 50 times with my pen, here. Or until you've learned your lesson.

[prisonchaplain]

Oh, I've learned my lesson alright...I'm still banned! No warning, no email...just the left foot of disfellowship. Wah!

:::cough::: anyone got the juice to get me back in?

[pam]

I got banned from a other lds site because I used the word drug. I was talking about medications but I guess we weren't allowed to use the word drug.

[Guest]

There's another LDS site?

[pam]

There's another LDS site?

Hard to believe huh?

[jerome1232]

Wow, and some accuse this venue of being heavy handed on the moderation.

Now I think we must be slacking.

[prisonchaplain]

Maybe that's my answer!

BTW, I promise that it was not lds.org...

[rameumptom]

Pam, had you kept me as moderator, I would have ensured the slackers and sinners were all kicked off. I would even kick myself off this site, because any site that would take me as a member is not a place any good person should be! Why, there would only be you, PC and Dravin left on the site, and I'm sure that would be very satisfying....

PC, clearly God only wants you infesting one Mormon site, so you do not contaminate too many Mormons before they can be inoculated.

[prisonchaplain]

Thanks Ram...I think.

[apexviper]

I saw someone on the ldschat site get a warning for saying "heck".

[Guest]

Yikes! Who are these Mormons???

[beefche]

I saw someone on the ldschat site get a warning for saying "heck".

That's because they didn't put "oh my" before it.

What other LDS sites are there???

I've been to LDS Chat and there are a few friendly folks in there but there are a couple regulars that are a bit rude. Unfortunately, the times that I've been in there, I have seen how said regulars are in cahoots with many of the Mods and get away with treating others unkindly.

[rameumptom]

Thanks Ram...I think.

You are welcome. We try to be very accomodating here. Now, if you could stand over in that corner and try not to cough on me....

Yep. Happens a lot there. The mods tend to be 1-sides there.

Actually it is the chat site. I double-checked the TOS, and it seems I should have at least been warned if I was doing something wrong. My guess is still that the word "beer," set off an automatic ban. It's just weird though...I wasn't really even interacting with any particular person...it's still in affect though. I guess it might be permanent.

So...you now have as a mod one who has been banned from another LDS site. Just goes to show how progressive and accommodating LDS.net really is!

PC, under the rules there it says that if you feel like you've been treatly unfairly you can contact the head moderator (gives an email address).

M.

[prisonchaplain]

I missed that part--just sent in an inquiry. We'll see what comes of it. Hopefully we'll have a graceful ending--though lds.net might miss this new renegade image I'm bringing. :-)

Hmmmm - it would appear that from what is being said - the the scriptures (standard works) would also be banned.

From past experiences you actually do get flagged when you quote scripture with certain words.

[prisonchaplain]

Maybe i was banned for mispelling. I'm guessing "butterbeer" would have been fine. :-)
