This is the thread we use to talk things over with people who have received a suspension notice. A lot of the time the notice goes out just so we can explain how seriously we take certain things, not because we want the person to feel bad and go away.
If you're suspended, give What to Do If You Are Suspended a read, then post here to begin your appeal. We try to respond to appeals in order via batch posts every few days. If a moderator has responded to your appeal, you will receive a notification in your private messages, even if you're suspended from PMs.
The Forum Rules
apply here.
Don'ts
- Don't be rude. Rule 1 applies here, too.
- Don't try to negotiate your suspension outside of this thread, such as by sending Private Messages to moderators or posting elsewhere. Such activity may be thumped or otherwise removed, and may warrant an additional suspension block if it keeps happening. All communications have to take place within this thread.
- Don't respond to other suspended users. This is a place for you to discuss your suspension, not others'.
- Don't post multiple times about your appeal if it hasn't been a few days since your last reply from us, since it makes it more difficult to compose responses. If you've posted, we're likely looking at it, and kindly request you to be more patient.
- Don't make another account to try and get around your suspension. This is called ban evasion and will get you bounced. (Again, read What to Do If You Are Suspended if you don't know what these words mean.)

I used to be terrified of Resetti, I thought he knew about me. Also I'm pretty sure that's what the people who made the game WANTED kids to think.

Ooookay. You are way too unstable to be allowed to edit further. I'm going to remove your remaining privileges for your own safety.

May I ask how to prove I'll take more care regarding my grammar and sentence structure in future edits?

It was never about your spelling, or grammar, though of course we want that to be up to par as well. You were edit warring on Characters.Final Fantasy XIV Allies. Your suspension release depends on this: how will you respond to disagreements over a page in the future?

Treat it as water under the bridge. It's pointless to try and argue something trivial if it leaves me in limbo. Option B, take it to the PMs or Discussion pages.

Lifted. Thanks for coming in.
Hello. This is my second suspension, so clearly, I am doing something wrong. May I please have an explanation? Afterwards, I am going to keep myself from editing until I fix what you are talking about. Thank you.
That's what you said last time too and yet you still have issues with Example Indentation.
"Yup. That tasted purple."
Let's see... yep. I need to study that a lot more deeply. I'm not sure I should be unsuspended yet, after all, I completely failed to learn after the first time, so I will work on that a lot more, and this time, I'm going to actually try, because I don't want to be suspended again.
It appears that I had been banned from editing, but my last edit had frankly been quiet some time ago, and so I must apologise, but I dont even remember what the slight that got me banned could have been. I assure you though that breaking the wiki rules wasnt my intention.

~Gorthaff: Your English spelling and grammar aren't up to the standards we require on the wiki.

Sounds about correct. I really shouldnt write from my phone. I cant even hit the keys properley.

I thought arguing was legal if you had an valid point?

You explicitly ignored a mod post, twice in the autism thread, and then tried to import that drama in the League of Legends thread. Does that strike you as valid or appropriate behavior?

And why I can't edit my post to explain that the reason my IP address on my account is subject to change a few digits because I use my 3DS and PC on this site?

What does your IP address have to do with the reason for your suspension?

About that, I was on my 3DS, was in the middle of texting an post as to why I'm averse to getting the CPS involved...And then the battery died on me. When I got done charging it up a sometime later, my drafted post was deleted. Since it wasn't the first time this happened, and I rarely miss anything important when it does, I just posted it...And went back to sleep after it was sent. When I found out it was deleted, I publicly asked why, cue more censorship. I PM'd someone else about what was going on. No response, so I concluded that they must've been offline. No responses, being forced into an losing argument about what qualifies as child abuse, and an cryptic post that I ignored out of me being my usual lethargic self. I felt that I'm in deep shit for exceeding my monthly allotment of arguments, so I warned the regulars of the last thread that I've been hanging out in that they could expect an visit for my "trolling" and it seems to have dug my grave deeper?
Would it kill the moderation to provide some private feedback about what I was doing wrong?

Multiple IP addresses + banned paranoid heretic who doesn't gives up easily= ban evasion?

What in the world does "heretic" even mean in this context? Are you so "3edgy5me" that three IP addresses constitutes an attempt at ban evasion? Because if so, you're terrible at it. No, our problem with you is that you won't stop talking about stuff you were told to stop talking about, and that includes taking it to other topics where it is even more irrelevant than in the original one. And you send PMs accusing us of censorship. I think you should look that word up.

Completely unrelated spiel about the origins of me calling myself an heretic: So around 2 and a half years ago, I advocated sniping with this instead of being the team's meatshield. I advertised myself as an second line sniper while using my team as an meatshield as displayed in this video since I felt that the E 75's armor was slightly inferior to the other Tier 9 heavies. Although, I will admit that this is an rarity when you compared it to the my average matches usually goes. Yes, I know that the game can be an e-peen measuring contest at times, but I'm obviously not into it.
TL;CE: I decided to call myself an heretic for going against the metagame. Since my definition of an heretic is someone who goes against the mainstream belief. For any questions about context, ask in the World of Tanks thread.
Re: About my trio I Ps. I figured that one of you was going to ask me about this, so I decided to seize the initiative and explain the 2 that I've been recently using. To avoid the accusations of attempting to ban evade.
About the importing/exporting drama thing (or whatever you want to call it), I tend to focus on the worst possible scenario; which involved someone following the breadcrumbs and grilling me about what's with the semi-regular arguments in that thread. So I figured that it'll probably fair to explain why the moderation might pay that thread an visit. But then it just turned into the usual anti-allenmark00 argument, so I figured that I was fine.
About the censorship issue. As I said before, I was on my 3DS, trying to post an response to the CPS debate. My battery died on me as I was typing it out. I let it charged for an few hours, and when reopened the browser, it was on the "insert post" page, but it didn't save what I was doing. Instead of just going back to the thread, I figured that I wasn't missing much in two hours, so I followed through. I see that my post got censored, I decided to ask about what was going on. Cue another gagged mouth. So PM'd one the mods who was involved about it. Since nearly every other forum that I've been on usually provides some sort of warnings in the form of private messages and I was curious as to what did I missed..
I'm paraphrasing the response as, "Dude, you ignored an public warning, what did you expect?"
I meant to say that my second thump was an form of negative censorship since I felt that I was being silenced for asking why, while explaining my upbringing. But I don't think straight when I'm sleep-deprived and I was frustrated at the time, so I admit that I probably sounded like an asshole. But at least I didn't go berserk and started P Ming every mod on here, right?
And to me, censorship is an ruling authority removing stuff from public view for an variety of reasons ranging from religious and social values to hiding incriminating evidence that can be used against them. Note that I'm not accusing anyone in this post.
So is there anything else, that we can talk about?

Hi, this is N Newt 84. I've been blocked for about a month now, due to some controversy with the article on The Igor trope. Look, I understand that I may've come across as a bit stingy in removing the Timonand Pumbaa example, but I've realised that my white knight/feminazi behaviour was just stupid, and I'll try not to do it again in the future. Still, I do feel kinda bad for girls, knowing they have to put up with being reminded of their "minority" status, but since this isn't my site, I shouldn't have control over what is and isn't acceptable here. So, from now on, if I ever try to make edits which might not fly well with the TV Tropes staff, I'll go over it on the article's discussion page first.

This is Pikachu 4 Prezident speaking. I've come here to address the issue of my suspension. I'm not blind to the fact that I've been banned for my flippant attitude on the discussions page dedicated to the YMMV page on Ghostbusters 2016. This is mostly due to the fact that I wasn't exactly in the best of moods, I wasn't completely aware of the rules TV Tropes has laid down (though I haven't made an attempt to edit the page, obviously), etc. I'd like to be given the chance to appeal and maybe apologize to the people I've wronged on that fourm, if it's possible. In any case, I do apologize for being a little bit too forceful in my opinions and I'm hoping I can get back to editing without further incident.
I'll release your suspension; we wanted to make sure the message was delivered.
