8. There will be a limit of one account per physical body. If you need help with your account, please do not create another, just contact an administrator for aid.


You know you’ve been around the otherkin online community too long when the above statement’s need to specify a “per physical body” comes across as normal during the first read threw.

Lol... and you know that this isn't the first forum to have such a rule by any stretch of the imagination :D.

Just wanted to say that I have read and understand the rules.

And yes, I internally chuckled a bit at #8. :3

Okay. So, to clarify, since it is not anywhere in here, apparently if you are banned you are not allowed to come back to attempt to make amends for something you realize you did wrong? Since in the past I have been misconstrued on countless occasions, I feel the need to clarify that I am *not* questioning the Moderator's choices and actions, I am checking so I know for the future and I can know just what to avoid.

Also, it doesn't say in the rules that it is a scientific forum. This also confuses me... as I was told in a post that it was.

Also, Spanky says "Why did you delete my contact info but keep the rest of the information there? Am I a leper now, to be watched from afar but not communicated with?"

if you are banned and want back in, you can email the mods (admin@otherkinphenomena.org). you can not make a new account (rule 8).

contact info has been removed because spanky couldn't do it anymore if she ever decides she doesn't wish to have it posted here.

Understood the rest of it, but this makes me confused. The way it's phrased is confusing..

if spanky wanted to remove her contact info, she couldn't do it because she is banned. that is why we removed it for her.

Spanky says:

Why would I want to remove it? I put it there for a reason, so people wondering about reavers could contact me. Now they can't. Way to effectively halt the flow of knowledge and information. Again, wonderful job moderating you guys are doing, keep up the great work. :D

/end Spanky

I was going to say it too, but she summed it up nicely.
