Unlike someone I wasn't talking about Taliban's "wise" treatment of women.

A former moderator on the forum, WMK, was promoted to an admin, and with his new position decided to create a "story index". Which would be just a list of authors in alphabetical order. So I pointed out how useless it is, and how it could be implemented in a better way that would make it actually useful. But he just got stuck with one of my points where I proposed that not only stories are allowed to be included and kept objecting to that, totally ignoring any of my other points. So I did the only thing I could do to bring attention to them, which is to repeat them again and again in hope one day he'll bother to read them. At some point when I brought up my thread where I kept the list of my stories as an example of how it should be organized, WMK told me that it's technically against the rules and they have a dedicated thread where authors can keep their lists of stories all in one place. That's when I lost it: so you DO already have a story index, so what the hell is with making a new unconnected one, instead of improving on the existing one? Once again this point was totally ignored. Although surprisingly at some point he even agreed with one of the other points and then I asked for the nth time - what about all the other points? And he went: "I didn't see them among all the toxicity, maybe you should stop hijacking the thread and just start with your good points and then don't write anything else". Fine, I repeated my points yet again, this time even ordering them like 1) 2) 3), and that's where I got banned for a week for "hijacking the thread in spite of being told to stop" and was told to "think about my behavior". Additionally my signature picture was removed for guro, even though it was there for the whole time I was on lolicit and was fine.

By the way, even back when he was only a moderator there was this case where I noticed there was no codified rule to use English (there is now), so I pointed it out, and I wrote it in Russian because I thought it would be a funny way to get the point across. Instead of a laugh what I got was a threat of ban from WMK for "continually insisting on speaking Russian" and an explanation that "written rules don't matter, the actual rules exist in the staff's head, and you must obey them even if you have no way of knowing them". When I pointed out that in fact I never insisted on speaking Russian (I was simply pointing out the missing rule) he replied with "I don't care about your facts, I have an opinion and I'm sticking to it, any further argument will result in ban". What a fucked up system of justice they have there.

Anyway, when I returned after the week of ban mentioned before, I discovered that the entry I submitted for the render contest just before the ban was rejected. I kept proposing this topic - sci-fi - for the whole year or however long I was on lolicit, so when it was finally selected having my work rejected did hurt. And the reasoning? Apparently a naked loli on the Moon isn't sci-fi, because there's nothing in the render to indicate that it's science that lets her survive the vacuum and not, say, magic. There were even talks of classifying it as guro because "obviously" she's gonna die in a minute (even though nothing on the picture indicates her being uncomfortable with her situation, quite the opposite in fact, as she made herself cozy and is having tea). Pissed off, I pointed out that if the same rule was applied to other works, none should be accepted, because there's nothing in science that couldn't also be explained by magic. Any alien could be a magical monster, any hologram could be a magical projection, any robot could be a metal golem, etc. And that's when I was permanently banned for "being a dick".
