The rules: https://www.duelingbook.com/rules
What it says in the rules: Don't make long, spammy posts.
One of the long spammy posts you made was:
Beside John the baptist, Josephus mentions Mokey Mokey one hotly-contested passage of his antiquities called "The Testimonium Mokey Mokianum"
"About this time there lived Mokey Mokey, a wise Mokey, if indead one ought to call him a Mokey. For he was one who performed suprising deeds and was a teacher of such people as accept the truth gladly. He won over many Heathens. He was the Mokey. And when, upon the accusation of the principal of men among us, Pilate had condemned him to the GY"
What the rules also say: Don't post super short, pointless statuses.
The super short pointless statuses of yours were:
Smell ya later.
1 Like = 1 Day off DB
and:
Mokey Mokey.
What the rules also say: Don't post just for the sake of posting.
Don't make posts for the sole purpose of pushing down other posts.
Each of the remaining posts violated one or both of these rules.
If you were just giving out dono codes, why make a spam post asking people to reply to you for it? Why not just put the dono code directly in the post itself and let the first person who comes along claim the dono without having to continue the spam chain? Rewarding spam with dono codes is still promoting spam.and you can see in the gif you posted, those "low effort posts" were made months apart
So? They still amounted to low-effort low-quality spam.
last i checked you still arent a judge, or any of the people i requested explain why i was banned, and you also dont get to decide what posts are "too long" "too short" or "pointless" that last one especially. Tl'dr: Not a judge: Didnt ask you.
Then explain how a post that's literally just "
Smell ya later," one that makes no sense which is "
No one man should have all that Flower," and one that's literally just "
Mokey Mokey," aren't pointless/spam.
Also, just because I'm not a judge doesn't mean I can't criticize your actions and figure out why you got the punishment you got.
Also, you didn't answer my question:
If you were just giving out dono codes, why make a post asking people to reply to you for it? Why not just put the dono code directly in the post itself and let the first person who comes along claim the dono without having to continue the spam chain?Volstgalph wrote:greg503 wrote:One thing these posts have is an actual purpose: To inform people of some custom scripts that could improve their DB experience. Yours meanwhile, were "pleasy reply, like, and funnily enough 'am I muted???'" Spoilers: if you find yourself asking that, you probably are/should be muted.
wrong person m8.
What's "
wrong person" supposed to mean here? He answered your argument and explained how my posts were actually made with a purpose, didn't he?
Also, if any of my main menu posts did violate the rules like Apocralyph's did, I'm sure I'd be shadowbanned myself by now (or at least issued a warning), but I'm not.
