That's true but the rules for the forums aren't necessarily the same for the journals. It even says so in teh rules, which Peach has already put in her post.

I'm sorry to hear that Peach. I don't think I've had a porb with that though(mostly cause I never do because I think I'll get in trouble anyway). I don't think I even posted in an old thread anyhow. *pats* Sorry I can't be much help on this.

=^~_~^= ya well i did not really read that part thot that was the same all over ao lol gess ill just hafe to go back and read it again lol

Now it may be of surprise to some of you, but the A.O. Staff is actually human, and sometimes either late at night suffering from a lack of sleep, or after having a fight with a girlfriend, or after having been 'asked' to implement a complex new feature that was needed yesterday, we sometimes 'forget' when checking the 'new posts' to see if the thread is in the Anime Series Forum or Blog Forum section...

Now as far as journal enforcement goes, the rules definitions for journals are 'lax' by design, and probably not going to change. Journals are normally granted to AO members who have shown the ability to post responsible. However, the owner of the Journal is expected to monitor the posts made in his journal, and 'report' posts that require the staff attention. And since the Journals are still a part of the AO website, the staff maintain the rights to intervene in any journal to prevent issues that could involve legal liability for the site...

And of course, this Forum Rule always applies...

I didn't argue with any staff or bring it up to an administrator (yet), because I lack the knowledge to understand if I was treated fairly. My gut instinct is to say that I didn't deserve an infraction... but my guts been wrong in the past... sometimes I overlook information that had I known would have prevented me an infraction.

That is why I posted this in the Feedback and Questions first... I'd like to know whether or not there is something that clearly states how the journals differ form the rest of the forum (because they obviously do). And how much do they differ? What can I expected to be reported for or infracted for? I think These are good questions...


As always, I figure that if I am curious about this , the knowledge may be helpful to another member. (maybe they can prevent they're own infraction?)

if the only explanation available is... "That's just staffs choice"... then yeah... That's kinda faulty.

Quit your whining, a mistake was made, it was fixed.

What len ment about taking it to an administrator was "Don't cause drama on the open forums by starting a thread like this."
