See, I made a post asking for proofs that the people airing grievances in the status bar would go to RP threads. No proofs were provided, and instead the post was removed. Quod Erat Demonstrandum :^)

Some offered to take on the running costs and hire programmers to update some of it while leaving the Guild the Guild.
There are other programmers on site who could do it and adding a bottom screen ad might just about cover most costs iirc.

Have anyone considered setting up a patreon, so people who still love this site have way to donate and keep it running?

No, what was removed was [citation needed], which wasn't a question, nor was it constructive. If you had asked the above instead, it wouldn't have been removed.

For those who havent been banned
What notification gets given? Do they get the post/status/action they were banned for or a rule that is cited or linked to?
Can other admins view these details if they get asked?
I see a lot of people complaining about friends bans etc but its hard to asses when I don't know if they should have been shown exactly what they have been banned for. If someone is saying they dont know what they got banned for and it was actually right there in an email or something that changes how I'd view that complaint.
Such a procedure/feature may save you the why was i banned PM (or at least some).

Nothing automated. You get banned and it removes your ability to post. You can login and read our PMs to you but you need an alt to respond to us or object the ban.
We've been begging for upgrades to the system for years.
<Snipped quote by Aqua Regis>
When I was banned, I hadn't received any PM. I went to an alternate account to message Ruby about it, and I was immediately banned afterward. It was only an hour or so later that I was told my ban would be lifted in 24 hrs. I was given no warning nor a timeframe in which I could view the PM and respond. Mind you, this was because I was joking around about a ban.
<Snipped quote by Ruby>
Shouldn't you give a timeframe, then, for the user to respond before banning them? That seems to be the only fair response.

Going by the vast majority of posts by the creator of the thread here I can't see how being constructive or being a question/answer is a prerequisite of staying up, given the vast majority are rude, one-liner deflections rather than actual answers. I also don't really see how it was neither a question nor constructive, but alright, I'll humour you now that the question is "properly asked". Where are the proofs?

That was during the status bar spam. That's a shitty situation when some people got dumb bans or weren't told or worse. We're a small group of volunteers and when things get like that the site mods will ban first and try to work it out after.
It's far from ideal and usually cleared up by reaching out to us.
