You know how often I had to clean up those unnamed mods' errors/stupidity? A couple of major things per week. Locking Drinkquisition, for example. You don't just lock a 4,000 page thread. You can clean it up, but unless it's a horrible mess you don't touch that. That's a major part of the community at that point and no moderator should touch it. Then the countless times I had to remove warning points and bans because their reasoning was just so petty. I'm really kinda glad the forum is gone, because it turned into a moderation nightmare over the past few years and this community doesn't deserve that. Can I be unblocked than? I did nothing. NOTHING. Even the thing said "No note" on it. Unfair it was indeed.

It's quite obvious at this point that they're just trolling most of us back. And that's fine. They're about to be without purpose in another two weeks so let them get their jollies in. I'm practically no longer even posting there anymore as it's so asshole tight that you can't even snake a strand of a decent thread (punny, huh?) through those forums. It's the no fun zone on lockdown. I'd rather bring the discussion here now. I look forward to watching this place grow and thrive.

Oh my goodness. You're actually here. You're kind of one of my heroes! I'm so sorry they did that to you! What complete jerkwads; you were the best of the best. You rescued us so many times! So many, you're legendary.

So, is there going to be some massive coordinated effort to spam a bunch of NSFW images when the final day comes? Like how EDI flooded Cerberus networks with several zettabytes of explicit images as one last hurrah? That'd give new meaning to the term,"Flash Mob"

Lol my parting thread for the mods is going to be a link to the site rules with a "Did you even read them?" Parting msg. They deleted my posts that adhered to the sites rules and then sent me a PM outlining the site rules that i was speaking of in my post and not breaking. Oh, and then there was the 4 warning points I got over an hour, each from a different mod but all for the same post. That's just petty.

How is it that I have gotten a message warning, a warning point, and another warning point, but no ban from the Biomods? What is this?
I am puzzled. Yet people are getting perma banned for BS reasons.
Ah well. Time to see if BioWaremod02 will send me on a date with the banhammer.

After some thought I think the following scenario is the simplest explanation of what's been going on.
EA Suit: We need to make budget cuts to all departments. Bioware is losing money. Find savings!
Bioware Suit: Ok, now to Community Relations. Reddit, tumblr and Twitter don't cost us anything, so no savings there. Everyone likes going to the cons. Smokin' hot babes at San Diego Comic Con, and who doesn't want that? So no cuts there. Our forums cost us money to run and to maintain. We can lose them and still make SDCC! Make it so. But don't underspend your budget! We want planned savings, not real savings.
CP: Yessir! We'll announce a shut down a month in advance, trigger a huge wave of postings and then we'll pay our outsourced mods the remaining budget to police them.
Bioware Suit: Good thinking CP! Keep that level of performance up and you may make the alternate list to Pax yet!
CP: Gee whiz, sir!

... If you knew your place of work would be closing it's doors for good in a week, will you just say 'fuck it' and not do your job? They wouldn't actually tell me until I turned up, then I'd be escorted off the premises within 30 minutes (it's happened before). ... I have all the admin keys, access to all the company's payment systems, customer data and servers; I wouldn't be stupid enough to do anything terrible but that's not exactly a risk they could take.

They hit me with so many of those, even after reading the rules multiple times, I still couldn't see how they came up with that conclusion. They just put it all in as "spam" at the end. Ooooo they got me so rustled at times.

That'd give new meaning to the term,"Flash Mob" Something tells me they won't give us the chance to. So I'd say we ought to go in early.
