I am a mod of a forum for Aussie wrestling and it is filled with 14-year-old nobs. Now some tool, who calls himself RVD, got banned for some reason. Someone suggested to me that it was because he posted a topic called 'Nothing' - which had no reason, no purpose and was about nothing AKA Spam.
Now I don’t have the power to ban people on this forum, but 4 others do. Now I couldn’t tell this guy why he was banned or for how long. I could only tell him to read the rules and that may tell him why.
Luckily for me, he stopped messaging me about this. But then 30 minutes later he starts up again. Messaging the same shit, without reading or comprehending what I was telling him.
Heres how the convo went.
His name has been removed to protect the innocent and stupid.

Chris E. says:
If you took two minutes to read the rules, they you would see that there are a range of different penalties depending on what you did wrong
