I wonder how many hobbyists have to continue taking one for the team before CGC begins listening to the customer base that actually has a noggin.

Its only been 2 years

I’m not sure they know they’re taking one for the team…if anything, the ones who would make the biggest impact and stop submitting books continue to send books in to be damaged….as long as they get the label they want, it’s all good. Book could be a 1.0 but if the label says 9.8, it’s fine by them.

Nobody has used the "B" word yet. I thought about it but adopted a wait and see attitude. I'm surprised as well, maybe the censor is on vacation this week?

I guess banana is the key word that triggers their Draconian response.

I think they are realizing that hardly anyone views their boards anymore. How much damage can a thread do if only a dozen people are following?

Someone recently started a thread "This place is dead", asking where everyone went. They wiped that out, too.

Wonder if a picture of a banana would trigger it?

I used the term banana hammock which may have triggered the moderation review and my banana profile pic was also listed as a reason to get a wrist slap. The profile pic had been there for several months. My banana pic has since been removed by someone who isn't me.

I guess they're unaware that there are dozens of other forums and other forms of social media that are littered with their major problem that is now pushing well over 2 years.

But let's make sure we get rid of "here come the naners". That'll show em.

It's like scolding the guy who drops a bubble gum wrapper in the town dump.

Maybe hiring a short term contract engineer for a few months to determine the source and resolution to the problem; instead of banana moderators you wouldn't be deleting threads and posts. Imagine that... dopes.

Just remember folks ... it's within specifications.

We have definitely figured out at this point that pictures of bananas and videos with dancing bananas will get you reprimanded, I think the experiment was successful.

The punishment doesn't even make sense. How did you get a 20 day moderation review and I got an indefinite? Anything banana-related grinds their gears. I've also refused to acknowledge their fruity little warning.

You seemed more like a rough and tumble type of character with charismatic leadership potential. The cgc didn't want to take any chances.

Has anyone tried “hiding” bananas in other threads? Rather than posting them in the obvious thread?

Oh no!!! I'm not falling for the "hide my banana" game....again....

I was going to change my avatar to the following image, but instead just sent their CS instructions to disable and delete my account.
