7 Day Ban Appeal

[LFC_Bitcoin_ban]

Can somebody else PM mprep & direct him to this thread.

I can’t send any more PM’s on this shitty alt. Mention as many of us as possible who were banned.


Edit - It’s 1 PM allowed per hour. I’ll message him in 30 mins.

Just got this PM -

I should be able to PM mprep now. I’ll speak on behalf of those affected in this thread.

I have just invited him here.

imo, the rule should be changed or overwritten. As you said, it was on Games and Round, it's not your fault. A moderator should check the previous history of that thread if possible before going such mass ban.
It would be better if the appeal is accepted and unban everyone.

I have sent him a private message a few minutes ago, too. Just couldnt post earlier due to that 360 seconds restriction.

PM’d him, a very detailed & lengthy message highlighting the actual forum rules & mentioning all you guys who have been banned with your forum ID’s (profile links).

Man - this feels like some "underground" activities going on, lol.  Just received msg that user "JSRAW" has also been banned and he d of course also like his ban to be "reconsidered".

Together we are strong guys...  Maybe...

Most giveaway threads are no longer allowed in the Alternate cryptocurrencies sections.......Similar threads are already restricted to Games and Rounds in the non-altcoin sections.....

The thread was in Games & Rounds.

It wasn’t in the Alt Sub.

On-forum altcoin giveaways aren't allowed on any board. Games and Rounds allows thousands of posts in a thread for a very small amount of Bitcoin, but it has to pay in Bitcoin.

This is a mess. I see a lot of good users are ban because of this. I was in the same position few months ago but difference was that I was not participating but made a post for some other reason however I was banned too. Later mprep unbanned me.

Regarding the rules, I think this rule should not be applied such a way. I see a lot of users were talking about trashing it when such thread appears and this is the right thing to do imho. I am lucky that I did not see the topic at all or I would join since it's was from bitcasino. With bitcasino.io and sportsbet.io I have good relation and I never miss anything that come from them.

Point is I would do the same mistake even after I was banned not very long ago. This rule just do not click in the mind. Also it's very hard to identify which is a giveaway, at-least for me.

The number of victims/mistakes proves that, this is a confusing rule. Just trash such kind of topics so that general users do not get affected.

Later mprep unbanned me.

Let’s hope he sees sense & unbans us then.

WTF else am I supposed to do during a pandemic when we’re all self isolating

[efialtis_banned]

mprep is offline since 10:42, ~2.5 hrs - I guess he banned us and went off, lets hope he doesnt take the weekend offline aaaaaaaaand, lets hope he s having a big heart for us.

Feel bad for you brother. I hope everyone gets unbanned and I am pretty sure whoever had this rule in mind they did not make the post. Every single one was unaware about it so they responded in whatever the thread was.

Well honestly speaking there are indeed nothing else to do while you have self quarantined yourself. This forum is a very good platform to spend hours after hours just by making posts in WO or in other sections.

The forum is going to be quiet for a while
See http://loyce.club/archive/topics/523/5234241.html, I recognize many of the usernames.

I agree, and I think a modification of that specific rule is needed to prevent further more confusion. even I thought, joining an alt-coin give away on games and round is allowed.

I’m going to create an uprising

Damn, the forum is really taking this quarantine thing seriously.

Really, its dumb to temp ban the participants of a giveaway thread in Games & Rounds, or anywhere for that matter. The mod should just delete the thread and temp ban the thread creator.

It seems like a very strange move on your sig campaign's part to ask members to do something like this. Was it a polite request or was there some implied pressure? I'd refuse to do it simply because I don't want my unread replies bit polluted.

Knowing jeremypwr it was probably just a polite notification that there was a contest was going on.

Maybe we should give cryptotalk a try. NOT  

Seriously, I wont participate in such a giveaway again, haha. You never know when you are breaking the rules!  

Edit: Realizing now that we are in forced qarantine (this thread!), we are spamming here, lol...

[OutOfMemory]

It would have been a good idea to warn said members before banning them.
But maybe this giveaway thing is a very sensitive topic for the mod(s).
Hard to tell, when no exchange of communication with the mod in charge is possible...
See you guys in a week, you know where, you know who you are

It's like Corona, self-quarantine from an unintended exposure

[suchmoon]

While I do think mass bans are a bit too harsh for this, particularly for a first offense...

• I'm getting a feeling that some here think the ban is unfair because of who was banned (well known users). That shouldn't matter. If anything, being forum veterans you should be expected to lead by example as far as following rules and shit.
• I find it quite ironic that some die-hard bitcoiners got banned for shitcoining.

I hope y'all get unbanned but if not - take the opportunity to go outside, I'm hearing good things about it. It's just 7 days. Will be over in no time (in 7 days to be more precise).

- take the opportunity to go outside

Lol that's just mean!

[LFC_Bitcoin_ban]

Thanks suchmoon!


Also I just noticed this ‘giveaway/competition’ thread ran for over a month. It was also in Games & Rounds but nobody got banned.

Where’s the consistency?
