6. We are here to have fun.
You're a few posts in and you're still trying to light up the flames. Please stop, we don't need to stir the pot even more.
Your side of the story: In a peanut thread relating to a frequently active player's ban from the discord I noticed the banning admin in question was rather inactive. I found the juxtaposition interesting so I posted my observation in the thread. Another user replied to my post overtly trying derail the thread by egging others on to make fun of me. Comically, I discovered that the user replying was also similarly inactive so I posted an image similar to my initial post displaying as such.
Why you think you should be unbanned: My posts were in no way disrespectful or attempting to incite drama of any kind. It's merely my opinion that an admin's in-game activity is relevant to their judgement and effectiveness when moderating in the community as a whole. Even if Riggle might disagree, it's certainly an overreach to simply assume I'm acting in bad faith and nuke my posts because he failed to see the merit in my point.
Anything else we should know: Riggle, the admin who applied this warning, deleted all posts relating to it, including one where I elaborated further on what the significance of what I was pointing out meant to me. These interactions were productive save for the few other users attempting to turn the sentiment into a shit flinging contest because they disagreed.
