You mods tick me off sometimes

I got in trouble for just posting a link. Apparently that's bad.

So one mod tells me:
If you are looking for people to review your video (in your case, a song), I would recommend posting it in the Community Cafe, with a good title and a little description, not just the link.

Hope this clarifies some things.

So I'm thinking, SWEEET. I can still post my lmms song! :)

Nope.

I get my thread locked and a lecture about linking people to my "products". http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1853130

I'm not gonna say ★■◆● to these assholes. I'm just gonna ★■◆● in this thread and cool off and just not post any more music, because I didn't realize IT WAS CONSIDERED SPAM!!! WHY DIDN'T SOMEONE TELL ME!? I DIDN'T REALIZE PEOPLE FELT THIS WAY ABOUT MUSIC!! AND WHY DID MOD A TELL ME IT WAS OK???? UBUNTU MODS BETTER HOPE I DON"T RULE THE WORLD SOME DAY! YOU'ALL ARE TH FIRST TO GO!

I'm ★■◆●ing mad right now.


edit: of course this post goes up with out challenge: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1852710

Ranting about forum moderators in a moderated forum? Really now... ;) :P

Granted; locking a thread because it has a youtube video (that wasn't a rickroll or some other troll) is pretty stupid obnoxious. :P

Interesting topic that reminds me of a few moderators I'd like to see moderated...

There is a model debit machine that starts off like this:

Code: Select all

$XX.XX
PURCHASE?
some people stare at it, not knowing what to do because it doesn't say what to do - which is the problem with your first post you linked Isaac - you are not asking for any feedback. You could be simply wanting more views for your video rather than feedback the way you worded it.

Ok, that actually make sense to me. But I did want advice on using the popular linux muisc writing application. I suppose if I ever post something again on Ubuntu forums it will start with a long story about how i wrote what and how. Version numbers etc... It's kinda silly, but if that's what they want. Oh well.

yeah. I should just post a link to the ubuntu site. I bet they ban me for being a smart ass.

Best plan would be to lay low for a while.

It really isn't worth a fight.

Yeah, snoopy. In the past I've tested mod's patients on the descent forums. Even banned. Over there, I don't even try to get in trouble and they lock/remove my threads all the time. I was even suspended a week for being sarcastic.

In my experience, the DBB is a bit of an enigma. Most people are there for a reason and don't want to be bothered with things that don't relate closely enough.
