The post is reposted and the moderation is no longer counted against you.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/help?id=51
When you dispute a moderation, it goes up for vote to the other staff moderators who did not delete your message. If they agree with your dispute, argument is successful, the moderation will be overturned, your lost karma will be restored (if applicable), and your post will be restored (if possible).

Ah. I figured that was the case. I just thought that was called "Overturned."

I got hit with a BS trolling moderation about a week ago, disputed it, and I guess the mods quietly reversed it without sending a notification or anything. I just so happened to see the new status when I checked for a response after hearing nothing for a couple of days.
Also, the post that got deleted didn't even get put back up but at least the moderation was removed :/

Moderations can actually be reversed? Wow. Didn't think that was possible.

Does it even happen?

Maybe if one of the mods' buddies is moderated by another mod that didn't know they were under protection and above the rules?

Otherwise, you get modded for the most absurd nonsense or obvious misunderstanding and it always sticks because it's just easier to let the pleb user wait out the warned status than it is to admit error.

It means the person who marked it AND the mod who modded it get the moderation.

For reasons unknowable, the terminology changed when the moderation system was overhauled for community boards a little while ago. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/6-gamefaqs-announcements/79710431

Reversed / Overturned are interchangeable and you'll find a lot of us still referring to it as Overturn because it's what we're used to.

We haven't had the ability to respond to moderations in a very long time. Since before I became a Mod, even. As for the post. It will only be reposted if it's possible to repost. Your moderation was likely in a thread that has since purged. As you said though, at least the moderation was removed. I imagine for most that's the important thing.

I've gotten a decent amount of moderations overturned. This is just the first I'm seeing it shown as "Reversed"

I guess I learned something new today.

The topic is likely purge now, but even when it was still up and it was established that the moderation got reversed, the post itself didn't get reverted. Eh, it's whatevs now.

Bragging about what? Getting a moderation overturned? Well, for some of you guys here, I guess that would be quite a noteworthy feat.

More often than you think. Most of the reversals are from fairly minor arguments that didn't need to be moderated and things nobody on the boards would have had any reason to notice in the first place.
