There is a clear protocol outlined on the forum as to how staff should behave with regards moderating on the forum, and it seems none of that was followed.

[quote="Studio Banter" post=1271904][quote]1. The user in this video asked the community for their thoughts, and TheXnator then locked the thread and banned the user. They did not ask me to make this report, but as they are in my gang, I was aware of the incident and asked if they were ok with me making this post, which they were. The user did not ask me to post this, it is entirely of my own volition.[/quote] The user was banned on the forums because he posted the deleted thread multiple times. Which I mean is understandable when moderating but "starting drama" is a funny reason when Xnator did the same weeks ago. The staff ethos is a joke nowadays.[/quote] What the user did was not against the rules. The user wanted to start a discussion about this incident.
