Hi There,
I have a question - why do all my Threads have tags that state "PokerPrince Fail"
This was obviously done by a moderator - can you look into this for me.
Why, would someone do that - I have posted some great deals on this site and have had over 160 Thanks for 33 posts
Can you please clarify why this kind of lunacy would take place?
Cheers.
ps. I tried PM a moderator, but apparently they have PM's blocked -- sorry for stating this on a public forum.
I thought I was helping out the RFD community.
Just need to know why this kind of behaviour would take place.

So after 33 posts and 160 thanks you still can't figure out where to post "off topic" questions?

Because half your deals posted are fake/scams.
You've earned a rep around here for posting crappy deals.

Prat, I posted 1 freebie - which I thought was legit, little did I know it wasn't.
I'm sorry...do I need to be called a scammer for 1 bad post, which I had no way of knowing???
Just thought I was helping the community - but didn't know a label would be involved for 1 bad post?...Geez.

Just to be clear OP, Mods are not adding that tag to your posts... Other users are.

All sorts of censorship on this site...but a troll can do whatever they want? -- interesting business model.

You used to be able to hover over them and it would show who added it.

Dear PokerPrince,
That is incorrect and everyone must abide by the forum rules as per below. I understand you tried to PM a Mod but perhaps using the report button is better alternate since it will go to all of us thus making things more efficient. As per your question as to why would somebody do that -- we do not know, but it wasn't us, but if you can report the thread then it will help us keeping the forums clean.
Cheers :D
Abuse of the thread tagging system is not allowed. If you have a concern with any thread/post/tags please use the report button.
- Please use tags that describe the thread, not your personal opinion of the thread content
- Users posting vulgar or otherwise inappropriate tags will be subject to infraction points or bans from the site

please be advised it's not right to have this thread in hot deal forum. Maybe you just earned it by breaking every rule here?

Thank you for the clarification. This makes me feel better - if I report a thread, wouldn't I report it against me?
As moderators, can you view who posted that slanderous tags to all my threads? -- Obviously, that person/member does not respect this site nor it's contributors.

When you use the report button, you can leave a small message for us to explain your issue. Reporting your own post does not mean you are asking for trouble, it simply means you are requesting a mod intervention. That being said you dont need to be a mod to edit tags, you as a user can also delete/remove the tags, just as other users can edit or add them.
If you see a tag that is irrelevant to the subject, or constitutes a personal attack please remove it, if other users persist on making a mockery out of you, we know who they are and corrective action will be taken against those users.
Thanks
