Hi-Rez Moderators Abuse their power?

Forum » General Discussion » Hi-Rez Moderators Abuse their power? 11 posts - page 1 of 2

I was a moderator on a website before so I know how banning works, Ip address, cookies, account, ect.

But today I logged into the main forum for smite and what do you know It said Permanently banned?
They didn't even give me a suspension or shorter ban first they just strait banned me forever and won't even let me view anything.

Its funny because I really think they ABUSE their power.

If you don't agree with what HI-REZ moderators views are then you get banned apparently.
I think thats why I got banned. It said for harassment but I DOUBT thats the reason.

First off all if they want to say harassment then I can counter that easy.
#1 Why was I the only one banned then? Others technically were HARASSING ME as well but theirs doesn't count only mine does because I have conflicting views? Nobody asked for me to be banned so I know a HI-REZ MODERATOR did this only for one reason.

And thats because he posted up something saying, MICROPHONES WILL HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON SMITE COMMUNITY. I disagreed with him and said it wouldn't I said that is why there is a mute option if you don't like what people have to say then mute them. I also stated how xbox has mics and they are doing just fine.

I think moderators just get mad when you don't agree with them. I also know its not over harassment because I got banned AFTER I REPLIED to that moderator, my post where I was arguing has been up for like A WHOLE DAY and I didn't get banned until I replied and disagreed with that moderator.

Funny they do not SHOW ME THE POST where I was harassing, I didn't even harass anyone all I did was ask questions go and check I asked as question that said.

I AM DEAD SERIOUS DO ANY OF YOU CRY? IF SO THEN YOU HAVE A REASON TO BE OFFENDED OVER WORDS

How is a question harassing or enough to get permanently banned?

I know Hi-Rez moderators are BIAS because WHY WAS I THE ONLY ONE TO GET BANNED?
I remember other people on the forum saying things refering to fighting and getting my *** beat but yet none of them get in trouble? I smell bias?

I also find it funny how it says for more information contact us but yet when you try to contact them it doesn't work HOW FUNNY!!!

I would like my ban lifted or at least lessened because they are bias and didn't even give fair punishments to others who did the same thing as me but want to target me out?

Its alright though because I'll just get on the forum some other way which I know how to if I want to, I would just rather have my own account lifted since I have like 200 post already on that account.

LESSON LEARNED Do not go against or challenge Hi-Rez, if your express your views NON PM to where everyone can see it apparently they just Permanently bann you then make sure you have no way of reaching them to ask them questions.

Okay I was banned from the forum that is one thing, if I log into smite and see they banned me from the game even though the forum has nothing to do with what I do in game I am going to be pissed especially after I spent so much money on the game.

I was a moderator before actually I think I still am if any of you want to see for proof. As a moderator myself I think Hi-Rez is crazy banning people over simple issues permanently, I would NEVER ban someone like they did to me, I only ban the crazy **** like links selling stuff or people trolling. Hi-Rez get your act together.

How do you know no one else was banned?

Hi-Rez seems to take harassment very seriously. I would just refrain from negative comments at all, and if you say something that someone challenges, then encourage their feedback rather than respond negatively.

Again, how do you know you were the only one? I doubt they will inform you with a list of all who were affected by the ban.

There's a way to setup tickets on the hi-rez site for support. I've done it before so I know it works.

Again, it's probably best to stay away from negative comments on a public forum. When you register on a forum, in most cases you're saying that you will respect their rules and they can ban or remove you anytime they feel necessary.

The forums is totally separate from the game. I doubt you are banned from the game, unless you were reported in-game for harassment too.

It's their forum and their rules, you have to respect that. I'm sure they had their reasons and I'm sure you were not the only one banned if multiple people were engaged in it. You should submit a ticket and try to get it resolved.

I will try the ticket I guess, I remember a long time ago I tried to do the ticket thing but it wasn't letting me log in to even see how to do that, maybe its not glitched.

Honestly I would not be mad if I only got banned for a few days or even a week or two but they permanently FOREVER OF ETERNITY BANNED ME? I probably gave some better advice in some of those post then anyone else, think they would have at least gave me a 1-2 week ban before going totally ape **** on me.

Yeah it's disappointing to log in and see a permanent ban, but I'm sure after a requesting help in a ticket they might can work it out with you.

Hello thetmalex,

Your account was reviewed based on reports we received regarding your in-game conduct. After reviewing the reports and verifying the claims, your account was suspended. We appreciate your understanding in this matter. Be aware that Hi-Rez does not ban solely based on user reports without other supporting evidence and we human review all bans.

In this case the suspension was applied for leaving matches.

Thank you.

Leaving a match is not the only reason for getting banned.

Your a leaver. The lowest form of life in MOBA'S. If I ran this place all leavers would be perma-banned after 3 leaves.

Highvolt, your statement is just on the verge of constipation. You would permaban anyone that leaves three times in their entire Smite game is more than enough to conclude that you're just nothing but a troll on the forums. Have fun though, wasting your time talking about the "Bottom Feeder Leavers" having something else to do that's interrupting their lives or disconnecting with a ****py Internet. Your stupidity of talking about people that have things to do or people that simply could not afford something better is more than enough of proof of your views on leavers. There's less people that actually leaves because they were on the point above raging. Those that rage mostly trash talks in chat.
