He isn't talking about his specific moderation, just how the moderation worked in general.xate wrote: ↑26 September 2022, 09:29Please remember that the Forums are not the proper place to discuss specific moderations and appeals.Gooorn wrote: ↑25 September 2022, 22:02 The Moderation page (first message after moderation) should be more clear and informative.
In my case it was more confusing with mixed english and hungarian sentences. I got -3 karma penalty but (as i could not play) i thought i was banned. My appeal escalated quickly and i got 60 days penalty with even more confusing message with empty date-strings so i didn't even know when my penalty begins and when ends.
PS. Instead of "accept and agree moderation" thick-box, a simple "accept" would be better both for our ego and your patience.
I think it's widely agreed upon that the moderation page is not very good. If you don't know why you're being moderated, then how can you change your behaviour?
If people's follow up emails and further discussion about a moderation are going to be ignored. Then shouldn't it be clearer that the case is closed and BGA have nothing more to say on the subject? It seems like a lot of wasted time from all parties.
BGG have a similar stance on talking about moderations in the forum. But they have created a specific forum where users can continue complaining, others may chime in, but it's known that BGG will in no way respond. It lets people vent a bit, and maybe learn something from others.

You only have to look through the subject titles to understand that there is a whole lot of, what the heck happened here? mis-understandings.
