Just to give you guys a few laughs, just saying that I've been given a 3-day ban, and in case you've suddenly become curious, I'll say why.

It's a stupid reason actually. I was in the Clubs and Crews Forum and someone made a thread entitled something like 'bass players go here!'. The opening post consisted of something similar to 'bass players, are u a bass player then post here.

Now obviously, this post had no effort put into it, little punctuation, no rules, no guidelines and obviously, there's already a club for guitarists. I posted this:
"Aside from the fact that the opening post of this club clearly has no effort put into it at all, the Bass Guitar is a type of guitar so I would think that any Bass players deserve a spot in the already existing 'Guitarists' club.".

Then, completely out of nowhere, the next day I found a 3-day BBS ban staring me in the face when I was about to post in a thread in the Audio forum (picture posted below).

I didn't break any rules, as I think you might have noticed by now. I had a negative attitude since I was sleepy, and I was tired of seeing this useless clubs and people not using a search bar when it's right in front of them.

Sure, the one posting had only 2 posts, so I could have cut him a bit more slack, but there's a search bar right in front of him, and the Guitarists club was on the first page of the forum anyway.

I wasn't backseat modding. People do what I just did all the time. Take the Audio Forum for example: every day there's always a new self-advertisement thread, audio approval thread, Voice Acting thread, FL Studio question thread, WiP advice thread, zero-bombing complaint thread, lack of exposure complaint thread or a thread which was not about about audio creation, and people correct the person who posted one of said threads and link to the correct thread ALL THE TIME (hell, even I do it a lot of the time).

As far as I know, nobody from them have been banned because of this. I do the exact same thing in a different forum and get banned? What the heck? Backseat modding is pointing out what should be deleted, locked or generally doing stuff which it's the mods' job to do, and I did NOT do any of that. If I said 'this thread should be locked because there's an already existing Guitarists club', then sure, ban me, but I just stated a fact instead, and didn't do any backseat modding so I don't think I deserve the ban, in my opinion.

I was simply stating the facts: the person who made that club put no effort at all in his post, and so I said that, and there was an already existing club on his subject, so I said that too. I even linked him to it and told him WHY bass players should post in the Guitarists club. Yeah, I said it in a negative attitude, but as I said, I was tired, and that's not breaking any rules anyway so it doesn't matter.

It may seem like I'm over-reacting, but I'm not. Even if it was a 1-minute ban I'd react in the same way, because the fact that I was banned for a rule that I believe I didn't break still remains.

So yeah, I'm pissed.

EDIT: Malachy added an extra day. How nice.
