I banned you and locked your thread because of the constant bumping of the thread due to your giveaway. You should not be offering people incentives to post in your thread. Stuff like that typically goes in games and rounds, but I would like to keep those threads contained in that section.

So in all fairness:
1. I limited the bonuses / posting to 50 entries of which 13 people posted over a period of 3 days.
2. I posted 13 bonuses / posts about said entries over a period of three days.

Exactly where is the line?
I am happy to comply with the rules, IF I KNOW WHAT THEY ARE...

EDIT:  If you thought the thread was misplaced, why not move it?  I personally think its in the right spot as Games & Rounds is a more permanent feature of that category as opposed to a temporary feature.

I think if you looked at my posting history (of PonZ), you would probably scratch your head... and say.. "Why did this poor bastard get banned?"


As SaltySpitoon said, it is possible that some of the posts in your thread were from accounts that were controlled by you. Just because PonZ made "good" posts, does not mean that shit posts from newbie shills will be excused.

So there is no way to screen these shill posts with technology?  I know I personally never made a shill post.  
So an Admin can suspect shilling and just drop the ban hammer on a hunch? So our admins operate by the science of "feeling" ??

Edit:  I am sure I could write a script that predicted within 95% accuracy what was a self-posted-shill and what wasn't.  So If I can do why hasn't the forum???

Did you also happen to get banned as well? I don't think it is very common for you to get a notification if your "spam" thread were to get locked (nor do I even think it would even be very common for a thread to get locked in the first place because you post/bump it too much).

Do you happen to be related to _JCaferJr_, or whatever his main account is? He probably caused you and your thread to get attention because he was evading his ban by posting in the thread that was locked.


My PonZ username cant PM for 5 days??? and my Thread is locked for 5 days.  

I know who he is, but not associated.  He's like a ponzi nut.
I'm amazed that party A can get party B locked up.  That could be used against as a weapon.


I don't think JCafeJr got your account banned, he probably just attracted attention to your thread. I really did not look at your thread very closely but I didn't see many/any bumps. As mentioned above a lot of newbie accounts with a lot of shit posts were posting in your thread so it is possible that BadBear looked into it and determined that they are likely alts of you in order to covertly bump your thread.

Out of curiosity, how do you know that your thread is locked for 5 days? I know there is a message at the top of your account when you are banned for a certain time period, however I was under the impression that when a thread is locked by a moderator it can only be unlocked by a moderator.


That just says that your account is banned for 5 days. It does not say anything about your thread being locked for that long. Unless you received some notification saying that your thread will be unlocked after a certain time then I would assume the thread will not unlock after your ban expires (although I may be wrong on this)

It also doesn't say which moderator did it.
It doesn't say why he/she did it.

I'm amazed!  I've been on here for 2 years... and never had an issue... I never even knew we had dictators and tyrants who could do what ever they wanted... isn't our communtiy about:  openess, transparency and democracy?  

EDIT:  Im not opposed to moderators...God we need them!  But they should NOT be able to ban without an explanation or identification.

So if someone a moderator thinks I SPAMMED, which I didn't, don't you think I should at least get an email telling me why??  Or some kind of explanation???

I have never spammed and rarely post out of my own thread.  

WTH???

i think d admin is just retarded...they leave most blatant scam thread open...and lock good ponzi like 7dayponzi.com

you can contact PonZ through the website...
everything still works fine on the site and still pays out
but apparently the Ban of 7day is because of SPAM...
Its supposed to last 5 days.
