Not saying I agree but it is pretty funny that a guy makes 20-30 threads in a night all with the word N@@ger in them and they stay up for hours but someone mentions another site and gone quick.



That idiot waits until the night time when most of the mods are asleep and only CT is around to deal with things. During the day, things get caught quite a lot faster.

But it doesn't really matter what the reason was...the banning winners conspiracy is just easier for the masses to believe.

totally not true, he was box way before that, then he ask ppl to follow him on twittter, just look the thread time..

But here's a timeline for you...

1. Someone started talking about twitter.
2. His thread was moved to the box and HE was still free to post.
3. People started freaking out and crying that he was banned/boxed.
4. HE decided to mention twitter.
5. HE was boxed.
6. Cue the conspiracies.

Look at number 2 , once his thread move to box, I saw his title was rehab, even tho he can still post , but only in penalty box. So at that time , what you want him to do ? I saw the the thread this morning, I found it at 11:30am in penalty box, and he was already box then. And the thread he ask ppl to follow him was after 12pm.

Just my opinion, #2  was premature. At no time did I see him violate any guidelines. That would warrant that thread being boxed. And then subsequently ALL of his threads shortly thereafter being boxed. Given this information, I can clearly see how conspiracies could run rampant. #4 could warrant these actions but not before #2 was implemented. Just my 2 cents.

His thread was in the PB before he was in cuffs.  That I know for a fact.

Hello Covers Users,

Very simple explanation and logic for everyone.

1. No one gets boxed or banned for winning or losing. Win or lose it doesn't affect us one bit, nor do we care, or monitor your records.

2. If you violate the Covers Guidelines you may be boxed or banned.

Simple.

CT,

I call bullshit to your attempt to justify your unjust action.

His action which ultimately lead him to the "penalty box" was a direct reaction to your premature punishment. I know my response will not eliminate your unfair practice. We all get it covers is a business, and you are here to make money.

What I fine odd is that you are quick to ban/punish a user who did not make any major violation. But yet you allow another user to imitate him (same username) without swift action.


I also recall your "un-swift" action, when another member created multiple threads promoting racial slurs and degrading people.

It's hard to explain to all the kids out there the difference between boxing a thread vs. boxing a user..... and none of them understand the difference between banned/boxed, especially when they all think it's a conspiracy because someone was doing well.

Fair, so if I post another website in your daily thread should it be boxed?  What if after me someone else did it daily and your thread got boxed?  That seem fair?

He didn't do anything to get thread boxed, plain and simple.  You guys feed the if you are winning thread gets boxed.

Weak excuse about it being over night that other troll didn't get removed.

Why punish the OP for some other clown mentioning another site?

So to clarify:

If someone mentions twitter in your thread, your thread gets moved to the penalty box?

Give it a rest guys. The mod that moved the thread did so because they felt it was starting down a slippery slope that we've seen a thousand times before. (And if you think "a thousand" is exaggerating, guess again).

Bottom line is that it doesn't matter that his thread got boxed. It's a moot point. He could have just as easily started a new thread. Unfortunately, he decided to go ahead and break a cardinal rule around here. So him starting a new thread in the main forums is also moot.

Explain to me how it's weak? All mods sleep because they have their actual jobs to get to in the morning. CT is then in charge of monitoring the entire site.

But feel free to contact Covers and throw your hat in the ring for working the boards from 1-7 AM.

Why so quick to box this thread?  Just cause it was during that time of  day?But give it a rest on the fact the OP did nothing wrong and thread got boxed.  No way I could keep the standards the mods here do. 

Would your thread be boxed for exact same thing?  So quick?  At same time of day?  No chance.
