All of 'em, really but it was the AI forum this time. Basically, I read a spoiler (or what I thought was) about the song that Brooke was going to sing and so I spoiler-barred the song. I was given a warning for spoiler-barring something that wasn't a spoiler and "making up my own rules." I wrote the mod (ASSHOLE BAYLISS!) and expressed my confusion (in a polite way). He wrote back saying that "I broke the rules, I admitted I did. End of story." I wrote back and said that as far as I knew I hadn't broken a rule, I was spoiler-barring a spoiler to protect spoiler-phobes and actually, you know, follow the rules. I ended the response (all of this in email by the way) saying that I could not fathom why I got a warning for trying to follow the rules and couldn't understand how I could have broken the rules when there was no rule that said: Don't put spoiler bars around something that you think is a spoiler on the off-chance that it might turn out to not be a spoiler.
When I checked the board later, I had no mailbox, so I clicked my name and found a message that in seven years, spoiler-barring songs had never been done, so my bad and I was banned for causing drama.
I'm still completely outraged over this. I know I shouldn't care, but I can't help it. It's the same thing that's happened to my two other accounts. I get fucking warned and banned for things that are not IN THE FUCKING RULES!!!!!!!!!!! It's so stupid because they actually have very good, reasonable rules, but the fucking, power-tripping asswipes who mod the place warn and ban you based on NON-RULES. It makes no fucking sense!!! On what planet does it make sense to get in trouble for breaking a rule that's not fucking in existence!?!?!?!?!! I mean, it's so insanely stupid, unfair and wrong. To get warned/banned for doing something that absolutely NOTHING in the rules say you can't do. How can you know you're doing something wrong when it's NOT IN THE FUCKING RULES?!?!?!?!??!
See?!?! See why I finally just had to block the fucking site so that I can stay away!?!?!?!?
GOD!!!!!!!!!!! I. FUCKING. HATE. FUCKING. TELEVISION. WITHOUT. FUCKING. PITY!
FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
