Just saw that Jatkshatriya was banned for a day for asking a question to a certain Admin. What that member was asking was why another member was being warned for making a point. The admin had warned a member for making a certain point. Admin branded the point as being made ad nauseum and warned him. A gentle protest, infact a query was taken by the admin as a challenge to his powers and promptly a ban was issued agaist Jatkshatriya.
This, IMHO, is not a one off incident. The said admin participates in the debates and uses his admin privileges liberally to get his point across. One has to accept his point or get the warning. If you persist then you are banned. I have had quite close shaves with the admin. He frequently takes sarcastic digs at me to a degree of portraying me as an religiously intolerant. Of course, any sarcastic reply to such frequent batering will not be taken in the humourous spirit and results in warnings and bans. The Admin has objections even with the personal interactions with the members and comes across as hyper sensitive when he is the subject and extremely insensitive when somebody else is the subject.
I hope the forum takes some measure to curb such behaviour from the Admins or Mods. One has to remember that authority figures cannot treat the average members as dirt.
Hopefully, I wont be banned for making this thread. :angry_7:
