Just FYI @Mavric IDK why he messaged me, but I responded with the below.

Hello, 

I received warning points on my account. I did not say anything other than my opinion. I did not use foul language whatsoever. All I did was reply “not Mickey” and explained why under a thread titled “Who Should our Head Coach not be?” I should have the right to express my opinion on this board as long as I do so with respect. I feel that I have. Could you please consider removing this?


Hey Husker009,

Moderators and admins reserve the right to enforce guidelines and manage the board as they see fit, therefore I trust and support Mavric's judgement in issuing you the warning.

I will additionally say that while we generally support open dialogue, this is a message board and moderators/admins reserve the right to make judgements about the content and conduct from individual posters and how those are impacting the overall board. If a moderator/admin warns a poster as a result of that poster's content or conduct, then that is their determination to make.

The limitations of the warning are not indefinite. As Mavric mentioned, should your posting strategy improve then the moderator approval limitation will be removed. Until then, mods/admins will be reviewing the posts before they become public.

Thanks,

Enhance

He PMed me as well.

He's underselling the post in his PM to you.  He's edited it now but it was some sort of grandiose, over-the-top talk about building statues. 

Thanks for your response to him.  I've responded to him as well.  We'll see what happens.

 
This guy is a bit of a loose cannon. He has sent me approximately 10 DM's, alleging you're calling him names, his evidence being that you criticized his posts and suggested that "this was his MO." He showed me the other things you sent and NONE of them are name calling or anything ridiculous like he's suggesting.

Anyways, I reiterated that I support your findings and told him I had nothing more to say.

 
I hate to burn everyone's eyes and make your heads hurt but here is our conversation via PM:

009:

Hello, 

I respectfully disagree with the warning points you attributed to my account. You may not agree with my opinion, but I did not use foul language at all in any of my 190+ posts. I have listened to other’s replies to me and have have respected their opinion. People on this board love to trash me, but they want to ban someone who disagrees with them. That seems awfully hypocritical to me. I ask you to please consider removing this. I will be happy to talk through the issues with you and see what you want me to not do. I will stay more neutral in my stances moving forward. 

Mav:

Why did you edit the post that I tied this warning to?

009:

Several minutes ago. I apologize if I have generalized anyone. I will stay neutral on my stances going forward.

009:

I thought that since there was warning points, the post must be seen as offensive. I tried to delete it, but there wasn’t an option, so I just left a letter there.

Mav:

Things like this:








009:

How is that offensive? 

009:

There’s literally a laughing reaction under one of those posts. Not everything has to be taken seriously.

Mav:

Where have I ever said anything about being offensive?

You seem to have dreamed that up yourself.

Mav:

Comments like this:



then when you're called it it walked back to this:





Mav:

You claim "Kansas is a decent team" then turn around and trash everything Leipold hasn't done and how bad of a job he is doing.

You are all over the place making brash claims and you can't even keep them all straight and keep contradicting yourself.

Mav:

This is not conversational.  This is mocking anyone who would dare disagree with you.





009:

What does that do to warrant warning points? I am confused. None of those posts were off-topic. I’ve already won the day once and I’ve only been on here a little over a month, so there are obviously people who don’t think I’m a pain. Like I said, I will stay more neutral on my positions if the points are removed.

Mav:

You are getting rep points because they are all worth +1.  Even when people are laughing at you - which is often used to express your statement is laughable - you get a positive rep point.  So you could literally win the day by being so obnoxious that people are laughing at you.

I've never said you have to be more neutral.  What I've said is you need to be more conversational, not mocking people who disagree with you as I've illustrated above.

Mav:

Like this:



and this



and this





Mav:

That is less that 10% of the way through one thread.

I think I'll stop now.

009:

Notice there are positive reactions to most of those comments you have highlighted. 

009:

So you’re essentially calling me weird and then proceed to dig through all of my past posts?

Mav:

You keep arguing against things I haven't said and avoiding what I have said.  

That seems to be your MO.

009:

I get mocked all the time and you don’t care.

Mav:

You expect to not get mocked when you say Mickey couldn't get hired as a janitor?

009:

Most of the posts I have made have been about the coaching search. Glad to know you support censored free speech. I have been using messages boards forever and this is the first I have heard of a warning being added because I was contradicting myself. About 75% of the people on this board have done that before. 

Mav:

Since you continue to ignore what I say, I don't see any point in continuing this conversation.

 
And now he starts another PM thread, for some reason:

009:

Mavric,

My conduct has not been impressive in the admin’s eyes on here and that falls on me. I need to think twice before I post stuff from here on out. I promise if you give me a second chance, I will contribute to a healthy dialogue on this board. This is the first incident I have had, so I am asking for some grace here. My posts will be more serious and less satirical from here on out. Im new on this board so I do not know entirely what is or is not acceptable. Please give me a second chance to grow.

Sincerely, Husker 009

Mav:

You've never had that chance taken away.  You can still post whatever.  For now, they will need to be approved.  I already approved your Barry Switzer post.

If your approach changes to a more conversational tone, the need for posts to be approved will be removed.

 
He reached out to me as well. Not going to respond unless you want me to. 

BigRedMax,

I was given a warning point on my account tonight and the reasoning given to me was because I “contradicted myself.” Does this not sound a bit absurd to you? I have been using message boards forever and have never heard of warning points being given out for contradicting myself. Please consider helping get this point off.
