Hello.

Does anyone know how I report moderation abuse - the abuse of position or role of moderator?

Thanks.

I tried that once and failed to find anyone. I eventually wrote a snail mail, but I suspect it went into the trash somewhere. The only solution I know is to live with it, or go elsewhere.

I assume you are speaking of this forum.

From the FAQ section:
Judgments by the Moderators can be discussed with the Moderators via private messaging but not on the board itself. If you display any disrespect, contention, or hostility towards a Moderator, Administrator or Catholic Answers your account will be suspended. Decisions of the Moderators may be appealed to the Administrator.
 
The first thing to do, obviously, would be to send a PM to the mods, asking them (politely) to reconsider their decision. Did you try that?

It’s @ camoderator, without the space.
 
Not sure what you mean by “abuse.” Maybe you could define that for us.
 
He probably shouldn’t discuss whatever issue he has with the mod on the forum. That’s technically verboten under the TOS.

He should likely
  1. Contact camoderator directly to discuss
  2. If that doesn’t suffice he can contact the administrator as directed
 
Thanks for that.
I was just going to leave and not bother, but decided that it’s such a problem that I’d raise it before going.
Feels like a sin of omission, almost, if I don’t.
 
Well, it might be too late for that. But I didn’t mean specifically. I meant does it have to do with something being flagged or Something else.

But I agree with you Bear, this thread should probably not have even been started.
 
Thanks.
All I received was a system message - nothing direct from a moderator that could be challenged or responded to.
 
Probably, but they should be aware of the TOS and rules. If people read them, they are very clear about it.
 
I wouldn’t dream of doing that.

Your recommendations are precisely what I’ll follow.

PS: Mr Bear and yourself are still in my rosary every day. Hope all’s well with you.
 
Why not? I haven’t mentioned any specifics. It’s an admin question and nothing other.
 
Thank you. I appreciate your prayers and your level-headed approach.
I will pray for you too.
I believe that @redbetta might be able to shed some light on your query. Perhaps you could message her to avoid violating any forum TOS.
 
Well, I’m not sure if others would or not. But having violated none of the TOS, or any rule or guideline I think it’s important to draw attention to the moderators.
 
Click on your avatar (the blue U), then click on the blue rectangle marked “Message.”

I don’t know what you mean by “abuse of the role”, but I suggest you bear in mind the possibility that the mods have acted correctly. Whatever it is you wish to complain about, it may have been something the computer did automatically, without any human intervention.
