Really, "you would have to be there" to get a proper perspective on it. The amount of spam I used to deal with here as a mod (I have no idea exactly how bad it is now) was enough to make me even more unstable than I am normally. At one time only one out of maybe 5 or 6 posts wasn't some spammer breaking the rules or simply copying someone elses upload to his filehost. The job these mods do....for free mind you.....is basically mindboggling.
Of course I didn't want to talk down the work of mods here in general. I know they do a great job and invest a lot of their free time. I have shown my appreciation for this work in this section of the forum already. In the sections of the forum where I am active the most, I rarely see spam. But I think that's mostly due to the good work the mods/admins are doing and I also have read that in other parts of Akiba a lot of spam and irregular posts get posted.
With my post I just was referring to this special case of "one mistake". (more below)
Keep in mind as well that you don't know the particular situation between this uploader and the staff either nor or you likely to.
I laughed at one little mistake
I draw your attention to the thread title, unfortunately his other thread banned again was deleted under same action, and you will find it is not just 1 mistake, I maybe wrong, but I think there was at least 10, and his other account I have forgotten, how many warnings had been issued
Ok, I was just judging by what I read here. I don't know the whole situation, that's true. My bad. If he has done 10 or more posts on several occasions than the whole thing looks more justified.
He said all the time that it was just one post where he made that "mistake". And you seemed to agree on that, because you didn't correct him by saying: "No, you did that at least 10 times." That's why I thought it really was just ONE mistake. After reading all the posts I also wasn't thinking of the title "ban again" anymore.....I was just focused on the posts.
Furthermore a few weeks ago I read in this section about another case where I had the same thoughts. All of Cybershiro's posts were gone just because of ONE link that looked like spam. I have seen many of his posts and he always was sticking to the rules and being a nice guy. I think I even remember the link he posted that got him in trouble (it was linking to another site with infos about an Idol that someone asked for). So I was kinda "angry" about seeing all the posts of a seemingly nice guy getting deleted just because of that single link. So I almost wanted to make my suggestion post back then in this thread:
https://www.akiba-online.com/threads/my-posts-are-gone.1540289/
But I was holding back because I saw that you were restoring a few of his posts and he was ok with it after all. So i kept it to myself. But now by reading this thread here my "old thoughts" about this matter came back and I had to post my suggestion.
So I hope you now can see why I first thought it was the right idea to post this right here - it was kind of a misunderstanding+not knowing enough about this case here.
