I've been in this site for several years and lately, it feels like they would warn you for anything if they could. Did they change or add mods? I don't have a clue.

It's still fun as hell, but whenever I see them issuing undeserved WPs to members, it makes me think they've gone trigger happy on the bans.

Like, I remember back in May, I got banned for no reason – no ATRL-o-matic message or anything – just a total ban for a month, just days after I got reinstated. The month before that, an ATRL-o-matic message said "bye!!1" to me and gave me 4 points to reach 10 WPs. The offending thread, post or message wasn't even referenced.

They even issue WPs on off-topic replies now. I happen to think off-topics make the thread so much fun because you just never know where the conversation would go -- many of them are even sig-worthy.

Take a look at this thread for instance - http://atrl.net/forums/showthread.php?t=1037807 - members actually got warned for saying 'Relatable. Love her.' How's that even a violation?

Voice your opinions, girls.

yeah sure, you got 10 wps for nothing, sounds legit

I never got close to being banned, so ehh.
There are some rules that I would change, though

It's not the mods.

I've come to learn certain stanbases are way more sensitive than others and will report you for breathing the wrong air to their fave.

However, I bet if I go through your post history I'll see exactly why you got banned. If you know you've been trolling don't act brand new.

I once got warned for posting a "."

Whilst there is some really nice mods I've seen some that take it a bit too seriously though..I'm not naming and shaming though.

good, i reported you but wasn't sure if it was warnable
