Default This site's biased

I recently received a 1-day suspension from this site for spamming/abuse, which I can only describe as biased, seeing as how I was making derogatory comments that were not any worse than members who have been on here much longer than I. Since, I was making infantile jokes and snide remarks, I apologize for anyone I offended, A Perfect Sonnet & Jibber. After reading some of your posts on here, I certainly wouldn't expect either of you to do the same. It's become transparent to me that the mods. must decide where to draw the line somewhere, understandably, however they choose to decide who to suspend not on the content of their posts, but more on who they like the most, and who has been here the longest. Crowquill, I can see from your comments in the political threads that you are against American Imperialism, and yet you are orchestrating on a site that sadly shows the same kind of elitism and favoritism of the U.S. government. I was reading the other day about how many members in here were already speculating as to the unfair treatment received by newer members, and I became all too aware of that when I received the suspension. I see that Jibber hasn't posted in here in a while, and if he/she was suspended, I respect that decision, however I also see that A Perfect Sonnet was not suspended, and found their comments to be every bit as insulting and derogatory, and certainly should be considered for suspension. Thx.

1. Doesn't belong here.
2. I don't see how my political views have anything to do with the way I mod.
3. I'll let Urban explain why you were banned since he did it cause I may miss something.

Alright, well Urban if u get a chance to read this, I respect your decision to suspend me and hopefully Jibber as well. However, I am curious as to why A Perfect Sonnet gets a free pass to spew as much hatred and badmouthing as he/she possibly can on this site w/ no repercussions?

I'd like examples of his hatred/badmouthing, I saw plenty of intelligent arguments from him such this

---------------------------Ground level

Basically when your camera mic is 20 feet away from an 800 watt ampeg bass stack displacing the air like crazy, and a 200 watt Marshall stacking beating it with high end frequencies, especially in a small bar where the acoustics aren't very good to begin with, you aren't going to hear much of anything but fuzz and distortion. Even in the video

etc etc
When yours were just stuff like this

Well, I've already given up hope that you guys will show any kind of equitable treatment to new members and old members alike. Is A Perfect Sonnet a friend of yours by any chance Crowquill? Just for anyone who wanted to take an objective look at my discussion:

I'm also amazed at how you clicked the link and went straight back to your moronic thinking

PS. God, you are both idiots.
This very last comment, hilariously enough was from the exact post that you quoted, funny how you decided to leave that part out. It also bears a lot of resemblance to the very comment that got me suspended:

gosh, jibber, u are such a loser

Crowquill, why are you still on here, it's so obvious that the truth hurts, and that's why you're still trying to defend the fact that 'blah blah blah blah toolguy's a moron,' I have actually resorted to way less namecalling in this thread than you or pretty much anyone else, except I did call a few people conformist who were extremely conformist. So honestly tell me that I'm 'stupid and immature' Those are great words to use, however they don't work, since I'm being a lot more rational than you are right now.

You're being more rational? You're not making one post worth reading, you're going off on your own logic and the reason i've called you names is because you've justified being called them. You are a complete moron, and i'm not talking just because of the things you say. You're twenty six and you havn't the vaguest clue about punctuation, grammar or spelling.
