Got banned from [email protected] for pointing out that it was a big reach to say that wind power is included in the term “solar energy”. The mod referenced a temp ban from two years ago? Tried to say I’ve got a “history” of trolling and harassment, as well that I “doxxed” user DMs which also happened two years ago. I even, at the time, talked with the mod involved and reposted that comment without the DM screenshots. Like I don’t have an entirely squeaky clean modlog but it’s only a single page over two years? What the fluff? Like it’s a two week ban and I could hardly care but jeeze this feels like overreach.

    They banned me out of the blue, even though I’d been on their instance for a while without breaking any rules. The reason they gave me was a variation of “you are Universal Monk.” That alone makes me think they’ve lost their way.

    Add that to OP’s situation and other things I’ve come across before, (though I’ll admit I don’t have the receipts right now), and it really seems like they’ve gone off course. Just my opinion, of course.

      They clarified their position in the comment below

      The comment reported in this post has been restored

      though I’ll admit I don’t have the receipts right now

      For someone complaining that they use “you are Universal Monk" to ban you, that seems a bit ironic to make such statements without anything to back it up.

        As for me not having receipts right now, I wasn’t trying to prove anything. Just saying that it seems I have read things about slpnk not being as cool as it used to be. I mean, we are here talking about them in this comm because of it.

        Others in this thread are saying that OP’s situation was PTB as well, and based on the upvotes of my comments, I’m not the only one who thinks the slrpnk vibe seems to have changed lately.

        I’m not a mod or admin who banned anyone in this thread, so no reason for me to have any receipts. I was just giving my personal opinion.

        I’m glad OP’s comment was restored.

          Making this kind of statements without receipts tends to be called out, as it’s very easy to just claim anything about anyone.

            How? I said I think that slrpnk has lost it’s way. That was my personal opinion.

            Want a quick receipt? This very thread. Most people agreed with OP and felt it was PTB against a slrpnk mod.

                I’m glad the ban got reverted. But it wasn’t reversed until it was posted here. I don’t have to give receipts on my personal opinions since I didn’t start the thread.

                Let’s move on to other things since the ban was reversed.

                  You could edit your top comment following the evolution of the situation. That way people who read this thread in the future will have a more accurate idea of slrpnk.net

                    I won’t be editing it, because I’m still of the same personal opinion that I offered. I can have my own personal opinion, without receipts, even if you don’t agree with my opinions.

                    I didn’t start the thread, I’m not a subject of OP’s complaint, and again, the mere fact that OP had to come here in the first place, backs up my personal opinion.

                    You don’t agree. Ok, cool. I haven’t changed my mind. Let’s move on.
