That's what an appeal to admin is.
Are appeals to admin even a thing anymore? I don't recall seeing the option since the latest overhaul.

Yeah, y'all need to lighten up on that one in cases where it's very clearly a joke and completely harmless (as opposed to serious-but-offensive opinions being played off as jokes once the trouble hits).

The only moderation on my history being an example of this. (Context for non-mods: In a not-remotely-serious topic, one user posted something starting with "I don't think", and I quoted only those three words with no further text and got modded for it. >_> And upheld too.)

We don't really have the freedom to do that. I'd honestly be okay with leaving things like that alone but rules are rules.

Wait, really? That's even more ridiculous. If anything it should be the opposite - if it really is a ToU violation, the vote should be pretty close to unanimous.

Knowing GameFaqs, I would be surprised if the mods even bothered to vote at all and the automatic result with nonvoting is that it is upheld.

Not only that, theyve also been very reluctant to say how many mods are actually voting in these polls. It could be 3 or it could be 20. Theres no way to even know how fair of a poll you got. Its entirely possible the only people who voted in it are Error, Raptor, and the guy who modded you. We have no way of knowing. The entire system is absurdly stacked against us.

Dey are never transparent, its a huge issue tbh

Da random locked topics are a problem as well, especially since dey can't unlock/reopen dem

You seem to be misunderstanding Allen's post on the subject.
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/6-gamefaqs-announcements/77748152

It's not "You need 2/3rds majority for Overturn" it's "You need 2/3rds majority for EITHER Uphold or Overturn"

If 2/3rds vote Overturn then it overturns.
If 2/3rds vote Uphold then it upholds.
If the vote doesn't reach either majority then it goes to Lead / admin for review.

Others don't get to dictate what's normal and what isn't. It's something we decide for ourselves. That's why it's the most important thing to us.

Whats the deal with that?
It is a 26 years old website and it lacks basic and easy modding tools like unlocking a locked topic. It exist many examples of locked topics that were wrongly locked so they even know that they need this basic tool, so why are they not adding it?
It is not something that require rocket science we are talking about here like fixing a Bethesda game, it is a question about permissions and could be coded pretty fast.

I dont even remember the last time I got moderated, but I was keeping suspensions on my post history, so it was basically an auto suspension when I broke any rules. Not sure if I would have been banned because I have a contributor page, but who knows.
