Question

can someone please explain to me why i got kicked out of a subject? i wasnt doing anything wrong (giving out answers or anything) guaranteed i was trying to explain that this site was for people to help and not just give answers when i could have said it a little nicer, but i dont think that was any reason for me to get kicked...

Answer 1

Were you giving out direct answers.

Answer 2

nope

Answer 3

What exactly were you doing.

Answer 4

Were you kicked out of it or suspended.

Answer 5

@kah.x

Answer 6

kicked

Answer 7

i mean i could just hit okay and go back in but i want to know why i got more or less kicked out

Answer 8

for no apparent reason

Answer 9

Maybe you were being rude. What exactly did you say before being kicked.

Answer 10

im not gonna lie, i did say a few choice words that i am not proud of to someone just looking for direct answers when he knew how to solve the problem himself and was just being lazy, but i mean does he have the power to kick me or did a mod do it or what

Answer 11

he wasnt a mod or have any other title

Answer 12

A mod has the power to do it. Was there any mods on the post.

Answer 13

no

Answer 14

Give me the link to the post.

Answer 15

Never mind.

Answer 16

It could expose the user.

Answer 17

And I am not planning to expose the user.

Answer 18

Only a mod can kick a person out of hte subject...

Answer 19

But I doubt the mods would really use that.

Answer 20

Were you warned or kicked because you said you pressed an ok button.

Answer 21

i mean, i said some pretty harsh things too that i know i shouldnt have said, but i guess i dont understand why i got kicked when i was helping other people and basically telling him to stop being lazy and do his own work when he knows how. he was saying some pretty rude things there too and he wasnt kicked

Answer 22

i was warned once for "spamming" which is absurd because i was only replying once every time he said something. and then a little later i got kicked out of the subject

Answer 23

I was suspended for an hour

Answer 24

i was warned for spamming too

Answer 25

The mods are able to kick you out of a subject due to behavior in the chats as well

Answer 26

@confluxepic looks like you found it lol

Answer 27

ya I know now

Answer 28

im never in the chat things, they just annoy me honestly

Answer 29

confluxepic, remember me? EmmaMInk

Answer 30

Say you were spamming, being rude, or being inappropriate in the Math chat. The mods can kick you out of the math subject so you are not in that chat

Answer 31

I wrote you a testimonial!

Answer 32

I was asking for bf and others were hitting on me

Answer 33

@sammixboo but i wasnt spamming, i wasnt even in the chat

Answer 34

I am going to look through your questions answered to see if I see anything wrong :) Be right back

Answer 35

What subject were you kicked from?

Answer 36

math

Answer 37

You were giving out some direct answers, in math, such as on the posts below

And some more posts

Answer 38

@kah.x
First off all you spammed someone other's question using innapropriate language. Then you were issued a warning. Instead of holding down you continued to spam the post in similar manner.

Answer 39

the second one i explained, the third one i said i had just entered it into a calculator like you would in math class, the last one you cant really explain, and the first one i also explained

Answer 40

@Abhisar was i using some innapropriate words? yes. was i spamming? no. i was having a conversation (ok, maybe an argument) but how is that spamming??

Answer 41

This was one of your many replies

On Fri Nov 21 21:57:54 UTC 2014, user reported this reply:
SO WHY COULDNT YOU HAVE DONE THAT IN THE FIRST PLACE INSTEAD OF BEING A LAZY A*S AND TRYING TO GET SOMEONE ELSE TO DO YOUR DAMN WORK FOR THEM

Answer 42

The CoC states

Don't spam! Common forms of spam include:
Posting a question multiple times within a short period of time.
Posting a question that is off topic for a particular group (i.e. posting a physics question in the Mathematics group).
Posting a reply that is not relevant to the topic of discussion within that question.
Posting questions that are not, in fact, questions (for example, starting a question in the Mathematics group to wish someone "Happy Birthday").
Sending the same chat message repeatedly.
Filing false abuse reports on a user repeatedly.

Answer 43

@Abhisar why yes that was one of my replies. if youre trying to embaress me for my choice of words, its not going to work. i already said i know i shouldnt have said those but how does that equal spamming??

Answer 44

if i got kicked because of "spamming" when i never did, then im not sure i like the mods abusing their power

Answer 45

It says

Posting a reply that is not relevant to the topic of discussion within that question.

I believe that arguments (from what I heard_ is NOT relevant to the topic of discussion within that question

Answer 46

that reply was very relevant to other replies, maybe not the question but it was a reply to another reply

Answer 47

@kah.x You started posting irrelevant arguments on other's question. That place is not for engaging in a random argument. Posting replies that are not relevant to the question is qualified as spamming. You think your reply look like mathematics ?

Second, you used foul language for which you got warned. You should have stopped there but you continued to post similar replies. Your replies got reported by the question asker himself.

I could have suspended you then for multiple offence but i decided to just kick you. I did that to bring things under control.

Look at code of conduct of openstudy

Answer 48

Mods are not you enemies, they are to help you only. If i have not intervened then you may have got community ban due to multiple user reports.

Answer 49

http://openstudy.com/code-of-conduct

Answer 50

i know what the code of conduct is, im not stupid. just because im not a mod doesnt make me any less than you or give you the right to talk down to me. i know i was using the wrong type of language, but just because he goes crying and i dont means that i get kicked when hes the one asking for direct answers that he knows how to solve himself? its absurd that my trying to explain the use of this site like you are trying to do to me right now is considered spamming because i used some foul language. i got frustrated with him and i said some things i shouldnt have. but why does that mean you need to abuse your power and kick me because you dont like how i phrase things. i could have reported him too, he was using the same language as i was and saying just as much crap as i was, but i didnt decide to cry about it. if you want to kick me for trying to tell him the purpose of this site and HIM getting whiny about it so i got mad, go right ahead. if thats how you guys handle things around here then im not sure i really like this site anyways. whats so wrong with, i dont know, messaging someone telling them to calm down instead of just kicking them from the site? oh thats right, youre a mod so you get to do whatever you want, right? yeah, no thanks. thats an abuse of power and you know it. ive spent enough of my life around crap like that, i dont need it on a site where i help other people and get kicked because of a few harsh words. just because i dont have a fancy sticker next to my name, doesnt mean i deserve to get treated like a piece of garbage for a few choice words. but hey, if thats how you want to run things around here, fine. im done helping if i just get stabbed in the back by the people that run this site because they get to do whatever they want and treat everyone else like theyre below them. i dont understand how YOU can be okay with that, because thats a lot worse than a few swear words.

Answer 51

ive read the code of conduct before, but i just read it again. no "sexual inuendo or hitting on people"? thats exactly what he was doing when i told him to knock it off but i dont see him getting in trouble. we both went against the code of conduct, and yet IM the one that gets punished. real fair, real fair

Answer 52

You can just avoid that user from now on...

Answer 53

@kah.x You do not know what punishments he got because he didn't make a post telling everyone about it...

Answer 54

All those who used foul language got warned and kicked. Kicking is nothing else but temporarily removing you from a group. You can always join back to the group.

Answer 55

@TheSmartOne its not about the user, its about mods taking advantage of their power because my names not in purple

Answer 56

yes kicking only lasts for like 5 seconds...

Answer 57

People who have a higher SS are expected to act better... Because they have been here longer.

Answer 58

i wasnt making a post about him, i was simply asking someone to explain. i wanted to know why i got overly punished for something, i didnt make this thread to complain

Answer 59

Yes but you don't know what punishments he got...

Answer 60

You havn't been punished yet. Warning is not a punishment.

Answer 61

suspension and banning are punishments..

Answer 62

but getting kicked is

Answer 63

Same applies with kicking. It is just removing you to break the heat of conversation.

Answer 64

You can rejoin the group wheneva you want.

Answer 65

Also mods and ambis are held to a very high level... If they break any rules they are kicked out and maybe banned from os.

Answer 66

im not an ambi or anything tho. and my ss isnt even that high

Answer 67

If a person with a 12 SS gives direct answer nothing will happen to him. But if a 90 SS person does, he will get suspended by a mod without a second thought...

Answer 68

You can raise it by your hard work, which you commit to do.

Answer 69

It is because the 90 SS person already nows the rules of SS..

Answer 70

lol I used 90 because that is the SS I am nearest to.. xD

Answer 71

ok, i didnt understand that kicking was a way to just settle things down, i thought that i was getting mistreated. however, i do think that if you kick someone you should be sending a message to them to explain or it should say something in the little box that comes up. sorry i went after you, i was misinformed about the meaning of getting kicked. i usually dont swear at people, but this dude just set me off. ill try to keep my cool next time lol

Answer 72

and now i feel like my dog after she peed on the floor... i guess ill just walk away now with my tail inbetween my legs

Answer 73

Have a great day... :)

Answer 74

That's okay :) If someone ever makes you mad here or is trying to start something just walk away and ignore them

Answer 75

It's ok, at the end any mod does not have any personal issues with any user. he is just trying to make the community better for your use only :)

Answer 76

@sammixboo i mean, i know i should, but when someones trying to take advantage of this site it just kind of urks me because there are people on here that legitimately need help and he didnt, just trying to make other people do the work for him

Answer 77

Yeah I understand :)

Answer 78

If you don't like a user because of the way the user is treating you then block the user.

If you get suspended or kicked and you think it's unfair then email abuse@openstudy.com.

You probably know this already but it is helpful to be reminded.
