When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

Some might consider what you did to be an attack on the forum as a whole, as you're effectively trying to undermine their credibility which undermines their effectiveness.

I would agree with that, though the sentiment is not unanimous among people who moderate.

I wouldn't call it an attack on credibility but rather a test of credibility. Let me add some more back story to this. The reason I decided to test the credibility of the admins/mods is because I complained that a particular poster was flaming me(I called it spamming in my complaint). Essentially that poster was stalking me and any time I posted He would reply with some insult and no other content. I was told that basically the posters actions were within the rules.

Apparently flaming a person is permitted because like I said, I was able to do it for a week without even a warning. I was honestly surprised at this result. I should have been sanctioned after the first day. It was only a week later after I revealed my reason that the ban hammer came down.

I read the rules on this site and you guys have a no flaming rule....which is something TTA needs to implement.

I seem to recall a similar experience there. I grew tired of it very quickly.

Your surname wouldn't be 'Jablomi', by any chance?

A lot of folks at TTA took offense to the surname so I didn't include it here. Those that had issues with it, I don't think they were really offended but rather used it as an excuse to be assholes.
