I can't, in case you've forgotten you've blocked me from doing so. But when you find something inappropriate that I posted, please tell me what it was so I don't break the rules again (your lewd joke that I quoted doesn't count, though I see that you've now deleted any reference to it ever happening). That's the whole problem here, you guys have decided to lay down the law without bothering to tell anyone what the law is or who exactly is laying it down.
My post that was edited was not inappropriate and violated no forum rules. However, a mod did edit it and choose to misrepresent their words as mine in order to cover their tracks after doing some other monkeying with the thread to erase opinions they didn't like. I can't be any more specific than that because I can't see any of it because 1) it was edited, and 2) I don't have access to the forum in question any more. I'm raising this as a general principle, and I'm asking for an answer. Should mods be able to edit posts that are not in violation of forum rules and thereby misrepresent words they have written as users' words, and if not, what will the penalty be?

I'll tell you that after you tell me what the rules are.
Spoiler for those playing along at home: There are no rules, the mods just make it up as they go along.

Ya, this wasn't a "problem" until it was handled very poorly.
Also.. nice job on the mod flood, my internet foo is strong, I can run D and play mod flood sidetracking while continuing to contribute to the real stuff and see all the ridiculous deletions and edits. Nice try.
Users are advertising dollars the users make up the community, the users essentially pay the bills indirectly? Am I right?
this is usually the case.

Hello. Its been a month since i was banned with all the other users of the SSFG forum. From what i understood, we would be able to return after a month. I never complained about the ban, but i believe i didnt do anything to warrant it. So I've now waited the required month. Now i ask: can I bee unbanned? I've got some bike issues I'd like to ask the group and get help with.
This h00ters identity is not intended to be a sockpuppet. I once created it to troubleshoot my actual acct i_luv_hooters. I had to use it to post today because I cannot do anything (even PM) with my original acct. I've never used this identity to post in the regular forums and I won't. I just need help here.
I'd like to log on and use the forums freely again now. Its been 1 month. I have been a supporter of at least 2 sponsors: Bike Island and Bikes Direct many times. I am also a positive person here. I don't know what I did, but I never complained about it. Thank you.

Send me a PM letting me know which ID you want to use, and I will get it all fixed up.

This is I_luv_hooters. I got Brian's permission to change my name. I received 2 complaints that my name was sexist or mysoginist. In real life I am neither. I just want other admins not to think this is a sock puppet. There is no Hooters posting anymore. Thanks.
