come post the dumb reasons you've been warned on the neoboards :D lol

For me,
Someone asked on the boards how to find stuck pets. So i just say "look up on google stuck neopets' and it should be the first link" <-something along those lines. I come back a few days later, logging into the account saying I've received an official warning. I didn't specify a site name at all, I was just helping someone find stuck pets and adopt them. w.t.f.

    To them, you did specify a site. You said "google".

    Google is a site not an action lol.
    Even if you are telling someone to "google" something.
    In so many words you are telling them to go to google.com and search something.
    Posting anything offsite is a big no no

    When I have to tell people something like that I just say: do a web search. (as everyone uses google anyways), so I don't name any particular site and get in trouble for it.
    I've been warned for making fun of TNT a while back (something about how the NC component for the Negg Festival was stupid), and of course I found that warning stupid.

    A lot of people just say "Poogle" instead of Google.
    Seems to be effective.

    I got silenced for using the word cannibal. I thought that was pretty lame since it's not filtered, and there are zombie colored pets.

    Likewise, except I was talking about how the AC is obviously rigged.

    I actually got frozen before for "Suspicious Activity" even though I did nothing out of the ordinary. (This was before I started ABing)

    Not really on the Neoboards but once this guy was spamming me. I said reported to him because I reported him. I got a warning because I said reported. For profanity.

    I got silenced for making a topic title this...."Buy my trades, or I might have to hurt you!." I got silenced for threatening people.

    I never use Neoboards for this reason. They seem to take offense at the silliest of things. Things I would never have dreamt of become gross insults on that site. It's just bizarre.

    I sometimes wonder if these practices don't produce a very mild reflection of how it might feel to live in North Korea.

    I got suspended for 48 hours because I put a TCG in my trades and said "not for sale". Apparently this is against the rules. But I thought it was a silly reason to get suspended for.

    I sent the TNT a ticket that one of my accounts had been hacked because the password was changed and i hadn't logged into it for (x) amount of days and I hadn't changed the password. I think they froze the account 'just to be safe' and I've sent in 2 tickets, wanting it back, so........It had my favorite color pet on it toooooo T____T

    I got warned once for listing an item as "nfs" on the TP; and once just recently for trying to give away a free item to a random poster on the Help Chat. It shouldn't be against the rules to give away items; and to top it off, the warning said I was asking for items, and used the term "begging". I haven't begged for items in the last decade of using this site.

    I wish TNT would just not let you say Damn so you won't get warned. I know guild and Neomail it will block profanity but they should block you from saying Damn if you are going to get warned.

    I was shitting on TNT through the form of a neomail, managed to get it sent to someone else without tripping off any filters. Needless to say I was warned for using insults shortly after that.

    Gestapo TNT probably has itself secretly auto flagged so they can read neomails and posts directly.
