Hello,

one of the J2O download administrators has banned me from reviewing downloads on J2O. The cause of this is this download: http://www.jazz2online.com/downloads/6967/perfect-battle-arena/

It is a birthday present Lithium has made for me, and I wanted to thank him by posting a review containing the text "Nice map! Thank you very much. :3". When I saw the ratings on other downloads being removed for not having downloaded the level (despite them having been beta testers of the map), I edited my review, telling the administrator in question not to 'ruin my birthday', and telling him to go away in a rather rude manner. I would like to apologize for the foul language I used in the edit, but the rating removal felt unjust to me.

Afterwards, my review was removed. A few minutes ago, I rewrote it, saying "One does not simply remove my reviews", followed by me personally attacking the download section moderator as 'butthurt', for which I would also like to apologize; I was simply upset about my review being removed. I again tried to reinstance the review, this time with the following wording:
I said: *one does not simply delete my review!* Now quit doing so all the time, there's nothing you can do to stop me from thanking Lithium for my birthday present! :o

original review:
Nice map!
Thank you very much. :3

But when I tried to submit it, I was instead greeted with an error saying that I am banned from posting reviews on J2O and that I should contact an administrator if I feel that something is wrong, which I am doing openly right now. I understand my actions were not right, and that cussing on J2O or personally attacking anyone, especially moderators and administrators, can and will result in harsh consequences. I have confused the morals used on jazzjackrabbit.net with the ones used on jazz2online.com while having been upset about a download dedicated to me having its ratings and my review removed, and I will try my best not to cuss at or attack anyone, and not to break any other rules on this site in the future.

Since I do not actively play JJ2 anymore, do not really use J2O much these days and planned to leave the entire JJ2 community for good soon anyway, there probably is not even a proper reason for me to appeal this ban, but I did not really want to leave too bad of an bad image of myself here before I quit.

Hey. Thanks for this thread. I planned on restoring your review priviledges tomorrow but I'll do them now instead. Like I said, I haven't noticed the description and made a (perhaps prejudiced) assumption. I tend to make mistakes, sorry. Seems like everything is back to normal now though!

Also:I understand my actions were not right, and that cussing on J2O or personally attacking anyone, especially moderators and administrators, can and will result in harsh consequences.Unlike any other website, J2O does not take insulting the staff more harshly than a regular user - we at J2O personally despise the "vindictive modhammer" stereotype!

Have a nice birthday. <img src="http://i46.tinypic.com/jkddvk.gif" />
