Reporting a moderator for a possible rule violation is a bannable offense

[Nobot]

Usually if you false report you get your reporting abilities taken away from you. Not a ban.
(By false report I mean report a post that isn't actually a rule broken)
Happened to me. I can't report anymore :(

Don't think it would qualify as a ban though...

IMO it seemed like a scraping the barrel style of a ban.
But to be fair, the report was also sort of a scraping the barrel style report.

I'd be inclined to agree with this thread if it had happened to anyone else but you and Ephialtes have such a bad history of hating each other that I'm surprised you didn't see this coming. Context is important here, I don't think any other user would have been banned for reporting Ephialtes there, and I don't think you would have been banned if there was another moderator that you had reported for doing the same thing.

If you got your report privileges taken away; then your reports are more likely to have been made out of a fit of rage. rather than actually trying to keep these forums clean. That rule applies to all forums ive used.

I'm not sure what side to pick but it all comes down to this.

If it was another moderator, Kalphiter would not have gotten banned because Ephialtes has a grudge on him.

Basically summed up what I would've said in the first place. You can't claim police brutality when at the end of the day you're as much of a richard as he is.

you'd think kalph would've learned that he's like the exact wrong person that shouldn't mess with ephi
saw it coming a mile away in that thread

[Ephialtes]

Surprise surprise, yes - it is easier for you to get banned when you follow me around the forums harassing me. You'd think "don't harass moderators with crybaby bullstuff" wouldn't have to be a rule but here I am dealing with the same brand of idiot that requires a warning label on a cup of coffee. Cows learn not to keep touching the electric fence quicker than this moron does.

kalph you grabbed up another bl key just so you can make this topic and not have to wait 3 days for the temp ban to be over?

-.-

[Tom Gunn]

The extent of your persistence is incredible OP.

Ephialtes is in the right here, like always. He's not wrong for banning Kalphiter² and then this account. He is a moderator, he does his job. Just stop trying to get Ephialtes in trouble, he is the most active moderator on this forum. He moves topics to proper boards, he provides an amazing privilege that can be lost if he hates you (which is reasonable, it is his service.) You just keep trying to make him seem wrong, sure, he did some bad things, doesn't everyone.

Stop touching the electrified fence to get Ephialtes banned/have his moderator abilities to get revoked. He is a good moderator.

I don't get it. I was just banned for publicly appealing a ban.

How is that even possible? What's going on?

[Raven¢roft]

I honestly don't care if it was Kalphiter or not. Ephialtes' corruption has really shown the past few days. I don't care if he's a forum moderator or not. His job is to enforce the rules, not break them then ban someone for reporting it. Same thing with the Lightbulbs ban. I saw it as an abuse of power. Unless Ephialtes knew that Lightbulbs had some sort of connection with spencer2015, billing address or IP address, he really had no right to ban the guy for defending himself. It seemed like he banned the guy based off assumptions though. My opinion doesn't really matter in this situation, but I just wanted to give my thoughts on Ephialtes actions as of late.
