I'm not surprised at all that my post got deleted UPDATED

Nephalim, you cannot continue hiding behind your powers to delete other people's posts, m8. You need to understand that you hold the position of a staff member, not for your own benefit, but for the benefit of the Freelancer community. I am posting a transcript of my topic that was recently deleted, because I think that the community might be interested in what I have to say.
[align=center]***[/align]
The server need's to hear my story: I was banned tonight by a staff member called Nephalim with the LAMEST EXPLANATION and WITHOUT EVIDENCE (link's here: http://www.voidserver.com/modules.php?n ... 233#171233). The guy actually told me that I was being banned because I killed people, people who attacked me first, and for your information m8, this ain't no preschool kindergarten, YOU KILL PEOPLE ON THIS SERVER DON'T YA?!
In doing so I didn't break one single rule, but nevertheless I got a system chat message telling me to see him in 7. Well easy there cowboy, don't you want to hear my side of the story?! It didn't even came to your mind to green me and ask an explanation, no you had to do it your way, not by the book, but because of the sheer fact that you had the "power" to do so.
Oh, and the evidence?
What evidence? There is NO evidence because no rule was broken. Banning me for engaging in a group pvp with players who attacked me first, and who could have left the place of pvp at any time? I didn't chase anyone, I was in the 4k radius of planet Demosthenes ALL THE TIME.
Admins and other staff members, please don't misinterpret this post, it is aimed DIRECTLY at Nephalim and his sheriff-like behavior on this server. Also, I'm asking you to unban me and to take under serious consideration Nephalim's position on this server. The question is: Are you going to be objective? I am aware that he is a member of the staff for quite some time, but please listen to your conscience, at least for once.
PLASTIKK
P.S. The other player that was banned [T]N[T] was flying a drake, and posed no threat to any other players. He was shooting my lvl9 brigadine shield for 30 full seconds while I was typing in game, and my shield didn't even fall to 2/3 of it's full capacity. He was also banned by an unprofessional, unobjective and biased staff member - Nephalim.

Agleed.
[quote="Mirax";p="171249"]Please take this up with Nephalim. This does not need to be flamed on the forums. Also, all the server guards here work hard to keep the community running, so even if you feel you have been faulted, respect them for their dedication. And despite your line about your post not being an attack on the administration, you still come off as highly critical and hostile..[/quote]
I respect and thank the admins and everyone that made it possible to play freelancer on this server, but you can be sure that there will be no apologies from my side to Nephalim. I have had a pm conversation with him, but nothing was resolved because the man's ego is bigger than the room I'm writing you from. So you're saying that if someone got wrongfully accused and sentenced that he should respect that decision? Nah, m8 I ain't no spineless amoeba to just drop it.
In my perception, a lot of things in this forum are forced the me "dealt over PM" which is just another term for "sweeping it under the mat". This explains why when you see a post like this one you immediately label it as "flame" and yell out lout to lock it/bin it/burn it.
[quote="Inf1n1ty";p="171253"]I also read that your last post was deleted, meaning you have gone to far and a bann is right in its place.
If you have a problem with it or you feel that you are wrongfuly banned than PM Neph and explane the situation. This sort of openly 'flame' post will only make you unpopulair and it makes you look stupit. Also, you are new and are that being said means that you have recently read the "Server Rules" so you should still know everything.
All has been said here so please let this topic die of old age of lock this.[/quote]
You see, THIS is the exact mentality that has been going out on the forums recently. Sweep it under the mat so no one sees it and starts having "deviant" thoughts. And why does this post make me stupid? The only thi,ng I can be judged upon are my arguments and they are sound. Once again, I was never afraid to raise a voice either in the virtual as in the real life, because I could not stand the injustice made either to my family, my mates, or myself.
[quote="eagleone";p="171258"]WOW!! is that the story you want to stick with. i was on when this happened. i am not going into details i will leave that to the admin but man some friendly advice would be to delete that post and just say sorry i screwed up wont happen again. you would get back a lot faster that way.
sorry neph but i wont let someone tell lies about one of my m8 and let the server think they are telling the truth.
oh and dude neph did not delete your post he might be able to lock a post but i am about 99% sure he cant delete it. the forums are moderated by other voids an admin. so if it was deleted then that means that others are not buying your story either. again i would just delete it, and not dig the hole deeper.
just some friedly advice, that i am sure you wont take.[/quote]
Your argument have been noted down. I also have a friendly advice of my own to you my friend: I presume that everyone on this forum are intellectuals, so that's what I'm going to do in your case as well my friend. You should see a distinctive pattern is the last couple of posts. There is a element of "keeping it down and quiet" in almost all replies I've got so far. Well don't you think that maybe there is something wrong with the community? I know that all whistle blowers get attacked and intimidated in the short-run, but it does get paid off in the long-run.
[quote="NuclearWinter";p="171259"]LMFAO u lie
I know u lie, cause when i did something like this on my Pirate -Killing navy guys and freelancers without warn- Neph asked me why am i kill em without R tag, I explained him, but he still wanted me to stop killing around, but he only ASKED me not banned me.
Neph is a good guy, dont mess around with something like this. PM him after 7 days and the problem is over or u might wana ask him in a long PM the reason of ur bann,I am sure he will explain if u didnt understood first lol[/quote]
Well nuke, the least I could say is that I'm a little disappointed in you. You say that "you know I lie" well m8, knowledge is a tricky subject. A famous Greek philosopher argued that you can never have true knowledge about a subject. The only thing you could have would be good opinions, at best. Now you're telling me that you DO know what happened although you weren't even on the server at the time of the accident. Ignoratio Elenchi at its finest. (This is a fallacy, if you want to google it. This is not a latin swear word, believe me.)
[quote="Travesty";p="171260"]Plastik you've not been here long so I'd advise you to step away from the kb for a time and think.
The forum is not the place to air out your personal grievances. As Vector said, take this to PMs with Neph.[/quote]
What premises did led you to conclude that "I have not been here long", and that I've got some "personal grievances" to lay in front of you? If you want a proper discussion please present your arguments in a correct way, my friend.
[quote="LIMAN";p="171265"]I didnt attacked you,but you attacked me with no reason so ...you lie.[/quote]
Although I was very tempted to skip this reply because of its lack in maturity, I couldn't post this reply without including you in it. It just wouldn't be fair toward the others now would it? Your power of logical reasoning is astonishing. I suspect that even Plato himself wouldn't be able to draw out a sound conclusion out of your perfectly coined riddle.
Now let's be serious, if you want a bigger post count, by all means don't be afraid to state it in your posts. I am sure no one will have problems with that.
[quote="NuclearWinter";p="171276"]I think this is only a stupid topic by an angry 15 yrs old kid who think that if he has a hair on his b@lls he own the world....well u dont!!! Never heared about something like this in the past but here more then 2 yrs ago so what now?
We gona belive a n00b or what? #-o

Nuke, if you want to tell me something please do it in proper English writing. Although you sound like a very amusing person, I doubt that many educated people will take your posts as serious ones. One last thing, my b@lls are my private business, and I can hardly see a connection between them and this freelancer forum.
