    Default CrackBerry moderators going a little overboard

    I recently got this message in my inbox:

    Dear ad19,

    You have received an infraction at BlackBerry Forums at CrackBerry.com.

    Reason: Inappropriate Language
    -------
    Please follow this guide: *READ THIS FIRST* - How to use the BlackBerry 10 App Announcements Forum
    -------

    This infraction is worth 5 point(s) and may result in restricted access until it expires. Serious infractions will never expire.

    Original Post:
    Textgram is now available
    Textgram has been released into app world. I know this is pretty popular on iOS and Android so it's nice to see it come to BB10. Although it is an Android port, it does run well.

    BlackBerry World - Textgram
    All the best,
    BlackBerry Forums at CrackBerry.com
    From what I can tell, I got this message because I didn't use the right format to post about Textagram being release in App World. Personally, I think this is ridiculous. How about a warning or just a simple message explaining they would like the format changed versus an 'infraction' for inappropriate language. If you want to foster a community environment, this is definitely not how to do it.

    I'm laughing so much at how silly that message sounds.

    The "Inappropriate language" line is usually used when you have sworn of insulted someone (I think), so from the text you have provided, I don't see any, but I'm not a mod, so can't be sure what they're getting at.

    No point getting upset about it until you understand it. It could have been sent to you in error. The mods here are (usually) quite helpfull if you ask for an explanation.

    I think you might be getting another infraction for posting this thread. Its against the rules to post this type of thread.

    Is the app called Textgram or Textagram? Maybe that's the inappropriate language, listing an app using 2 spellings?

    YES, I DO BELIEVE THAT I AM WORTH IT!

    PLEASE STOP WITH THE LONG POSTS! YOU'RE BORING US.

    Sent to you in private? The courteous thing is to reply in kind.

    If it was a mistake, it's understandable for volunteers who do as much as they do. When mistakes occur, they are quick to fix them. Contact the moderator.

    Sorry for the confusion on this 'infraction'. I've since conversed directly with the original user, and resolved this.

    Thanks

    I find it rather frustrating that one would go out of their way to create a thread on an issue that I resolved virtually within minutes and apologized for. Not only that, after creating said thread, the issue was resolved and they didn't even bother to comment here on the speed and time factor in which the issue was resolved.

    Honestly; priceless. I think things should work BOTH ways...

    Be bold. Be pantless. Then go take a nice long nap.
