my .02 it's Ben's board. He has a list of people to whom he's granted mod powers. Apparently he trusts their judgement enough to give them certain liberties within his site. This includes the disciplinary powers of infractions. Should you disagree with an infraction or how it was applied, MY first move would have been to send a PM to ben and explain why you disagree with it. NOT to start a new public thread whining like a little bitch. Want to be treated like an adult? act like one. fonzie came on and gave his opinion, in defense of another mods decision. I've never gotten an infraction based on anything I've said in a PM, and esssentially that's what john did, sent you a PM calling you a fucktard, along with a 1 pt infraction (which you can get just for annoying a mod). and based on this thread alone, you're privy to a 3pter if one of the mods felt it was warranted.
