That was the challenge i gave to the mod who emailed me all cocky about the stradden post challenging me to talk to stradden direct when i already have. I challenged them to put that poll and if the results were that everyone thinks this board was unbiased i would call stradden himself and apoligize and never post here again LOL. That mods response and locking of the thread pretty much says it all...Guess we all have to wait for operation stradden freedom

Righteo, thats a bit confusing. Are you saying that thread was made by a mod? And by saying "that" mod multiple times while referring to different people it sounds like it was me who emailed you when it wasn't.
I've got a brilliant idea. Lets make a poll in the SWG Vet forum asking if they think the forums are unbiased... It doesn't take a genius to realize thats a stupid idea. We all know everyone trys to stay away from that forum except for people such as yourself pretty much. How about making a poll in the General forum about that? Im pretty sure we'd get a much more accurate answer and I'd put money on it not being in your favor.
Edit: There was no report. You are trolling the forums and making personal attacks. I just so happen to read the forums.
*Notice: The views expressed in this post are solely those of the author... got sick of holding backspace.

lol, I wonder if the MMORPG staff is laughing at all this.

Ok let me just point out a few facts firstly. That is an automated email which is sent out from our warning/ban system. The email you sent as a reply was never read by anyone nor will any emails to that address.
As for going on "the attack" and banning you, well what can I say? You broke the rules of conduct on multiple occasions. I should also point out that creating multiple accounts, especially to avoid temp bans will result in perma and IP bans.
Also as Im sure this is a subtle "attack" at me "Now if you need this simplified even more ill do it since u have a such hard time understanding anything". I think people can read your post and see why it was confusing. Also the other mod who did give you that warning seems to agree "Posting unintelligible rubbish" "because you have to say something that makes enough sense for us to understand it to get banned"
Quite frankly Im sick of all this talk of "double standards" and how we love the Pro-NGE crowd and so on. You are all the same to us except some of you who seem to be the most vocal these days (probably because everyone else is actually playing the game) feel the need to troll the forums and break the rules of conduct. I'm actually going to talk to Jon about the possibility of having a poll asking if people think MMORPG.com is biased or not just to prove you guys wrong.

Here's a brilliant idea. Get over it
You've had what, two bans now?
The OP needs to GO AWAY.
You are not constructive. Nor are you helping those of us that are antiNGE and still posting here.
This is completely minor nitpicking but as one of the ex vets who used to post here on this part of the forum alot and now doesn't, the reason why has nothing to do with actuelly playing SWG.
He needs to at least give it a rest, even if some threads shouldn't have been locked or his ban unwarrented it's just coming across like a personal vendetta at this stage.
That joke is soooooooo '05 now...
Also, by "these days" do you mean the last 365+ days?
I just started a poll to see if people think that your poll will ever happen

Would you please care to explain that statement a little further before you insult every user of the Vet forum?
Otherwise it would appear that while MMORPG.com isnt biased, you personally are, as a moderator you may want to clarify your position on this.

Only if you think you are. I simply meant someone who posts Anti-SOE/NGE/SWG. And I didn't say everyone was. The point was in a forum such as that you will get a very one sided vote.

and why do you think that would be the case?
Im no fan of the NGE at all, but I personally dont think MMORPG.com is biased and would vote no. But it would appear by the above statement that you dislike the Vet forum and its users, is that the message you wish to put across?
Based on the threads and posts I read everyday. Nowhere in there have I said anything that suggests in my opinion I dislike the forums and people, it's the complete opposite. Perhaps you just want me to?

And no, I certainly dont want you to dislike the forums and its people, but with a comment like that it would be very understandable to think that you do.
Maybe you would like to retract that comment or expand on why 'everyone stays away from it' and why the people that do are all pretty much like the OP of this thread. Its very insulting to those that do use this forum in a polite and constructive (albeit dejcted and annoyed at the loss of their game) manner.
Let the mending begin.

Hey paratrooper, I don't think you guys are biased on the whole, and really don't want to get in the middle of a dicussion about whether someone was trolling or not, but a comment like the one you just made above supports his position. I'm sure you didn't mean it this way, but your comment comes off as people that no longer play SWG but post here, are trolls or are at least more likely to be trolls.
SOE used that sort of logic to justify ingorning its players on the official forums and certainly is unlikely to endear you to anyone here.
I humbly request that you edit your post to remove that comment. Thanks.
LOL

You've crossed a line here...
I HATE the NGE & SOE, but saying my posts are like the Op's or are unproductive is out of line. You represent MMORPG. We have EVERY right to be & post here, as stated by your boards OWN rules, to argue those points, and you saying otherwise is an insult to your users. This is the VET REFUGE, and a VAST majority of Vets agree with US.
Create a poll and see what happens, but until then, please stop insulting us.
I'll start my own SWG... with Black Jack... and Hookers!!!
In fact, forget the SWG!!!!
When you are a moderator at a commercial forum, there's a procedure you should follow before posting any opinion whatsoever about the population at your forum.
1. Count 50.
2. Don't post it.
It's always a bad idea. ALWAYS. A moderator is there to enforce terms of conduct, not editorialize. I understand the impulse to do it, but it's always regretted later. You want to communicate a problem you've got with an individual poster, that's what PM's are for ... don't get into a flamewar with the people you're tasked with providing a service for.
Generalizing about 'people like you' or dropping historically inflammatory comments like 'everyone else is actually playing' ... counterproductive and indicative of some serious need for re-training.
Lol, now see this is where it's odd.
I dislike the NGE and the current staff of SWG....
I never have a issue with Strad... so Im kinda lost in this one.
I do consider myself pretty vocal and forward with the state of the game...so I have to say, just use some sense and I think all of us will be fine.
Look, there is not one monkey out there that does not know that the current state of the game is bad... crap, this is almost a joke if that is the issue.
But what people should be doing is getting this team fired, the game sunseted and a new one made by some people that know what they are doing.

Paratrooper..You're not doing so well in my preliminary polls...
Of course, these exit polls have a tendency to be inaccurate.
