#DoSomething
I have been a member at OS since 2007. However, I have accumulated about 150 total posts. I tend to simply ghost on those forums or visit for sliders, rosters, etc. I never visited OS as much as MM, DSM, DSS, VSN or VSNDaily. After several months of ghosting, I decided to get involved in some MLB 2K11 discussion.

First, earlier in the week my thread was closed because I asked if there were any other PS3 players who were going to be playing 2K11. Thread was closed for, not trolling, but possibly starting a "fan war."

Today, I'm perusing the impressions thread and agree with one of the posters regarding the overall gameplay and some of the small glitches. I'm clearing responding to his impression and saying that some of the things he looks for in a game are the same qualities I take into account. Then, someone asks about FA/contract signing numbers in franchise. A previous poster provided this info earlier in the thread. I respond by saying:

"Someone posted this earlier and said the number for Pujols and Fielder were..."

And I went on to post the numbers that another poster had provided.

I get a PM from a mod saying the following:

Dear RyanLeaf16,

You have received a warning at Operation Sports Forums.

Reason:
-------
not an impression

the impressions thread is for impressions, not discussion

HUH!?!?!? The whole thread is a discussion involving those with the game and those who have questions.

So I responded with the following:

RyanLeaf16 said:
Please don't take this as a tongue-in-cheek response, but, I am completely confused about the way the boards are moderated. It seems that each mod has his/her own definition of what is, and is not, on topic.

I think there needs to be some more clarity as to what goes on the forums. I have had a thread locked earlier this week just asking if there are any PS3 players on the web. Now, I have a response to a impression removed b/c it does not specifically reference a impression. I thought the point of the impressions thread was for those with the game to provide insight and for all forum members to have an open dialogue regarding the game as long as it stays on topic? I believe my response was a perfectly valid response to an impression provided by a member. Also, my other response regarding a question another user posed seems to have been deleted - when my answer was in regards to his question which was posted earlier by someone who provided an impression regarding FA signings and contract numbers after a simmed season.

As I said before, I don't intend to sound flip about the situation or question your decision-making. I'm just not clear as to a clear definition of what is and is not on-topic. I think we could find a large number of posts similar to mine that were permitted and have not been removed. Could you please provide further explanation besides providing a link to TOS.

Regards,
RL16

I'm fully expecting a suspention, insta-ban or no response. Either way, this little experience reminds me why I simply ghost on their forums and barely post. The rules are not clear and the mods interpret/enforce the rules how they see fit. I love open communities like VSNDaily that aren't so heavily moderated.


Love ya VSN!
 
I got perma-banned from OS because I gave a mod a suggestion and he assume it was trolling. I had no opportunity to protest it.

OS has never been about the posters. It's about protecting their interests and relationships with EA, Take-Two, and any other publisher that tosses them goodies.
 
I got banned from OS because I was banned for a week like years ago.

Don't use the email address associated with the account, so I made a new one like last year. Then was banned for breaking their rules by "going around a ban" despite it not existing any longer.

They are fucking toolbags. Their entire site is a scam because their "member" numbers include viewing guests, which is all BS considering many guests are just bots.

Furthermore, the entire forum is a collection of the dumbest fucking human beings on the planet. Every one of them repeats the same fucking comments over and over "GUYS LOOK ITS SO SIMPLE. THERES NO COMPETITION SO MADDEN CAN TAKE IT EASY AND JUST TAKE YOUR MONEY. I DONT KNOW WHY IM NOT CEO OF EA SPORTS!"

The fucking logic of the majority of those retards is actually fucking comedy to read. I didn't know people could be so fucking thick, but they get a raging boner every time a EA employee posts there, despite is being just an attempt to keep them excited.

Dumbest fucking member base on the planet, site is a scam and overall a waste of fucking time.
 
Nothing will ever to the good days of MM but that sed I have been @ OS since 2003 and have 115 posts...I've been at VSN mostly only during baseball season since its inception and have 611 posts!
 
lol they wouldn't even allow me to sign up just to get banned.

I tried using my old username and it just said this username is invalid or something. I was only going to troll them and see how long I could last till I got banned anyway but didn't want to do it without the ol leaffan name attached to it.

I must of really pissed Bigwill off when he was off playing basketball with his buddies or something.

I got that today too. I saw your name on there as well. Gotta love it.
 
Like someone said, I just use them for rosters and I'm outta there.....I originally signed up at OS like back in 02 and have a grand total of maybe 150 posts....VSN dudes are definitely too rad for them and God forbid you express your opinion to get spanked by all the e-daddies over there
 
I post but not often. Posted a bug today using the format they provided, but copied somebody elses post and edited it. Well, the questions were to be bold and the answer not, but I did it backward and a mod came on to point that out.

I used to like Pared over there, we used to talk a bit about sliders and such be since being 'modded', he turned into one of 'them'. I think they have a template they use for responding!


IMPRESSIONS ONLY

STAY ON TOPIC

CLOSED!

Fuckers..


I like the site for what I need and I spend most my time reading but the mods need to be killed because they are all highly trained assholes .
