Hello.
I am not sure why I was banned from the scooby addicts website. My friend and I had just wanted to start an innocent crossover RP with two of our favorite animated series, Scooby Doo and Evangelion. I thought I had read over the rules - we made everything very PG and tried to stay as true to the Scooby characters as possible.
I’m sorry if I had offended anyone, but I thought just outright banning my IP address w out any kind of warning was kind of harsh.
I think a warning would have been better? I still want my Scooby fix, but I want to learn from my mistake. Please tell me what I did wrong. And how I can do better.
Thank you,
CaptainKatsuragi

Hi. I did mistake your post for spam, but there were two other accounts that were created (that were either you or your friend) that had usernames with less than appropriate language in them (“th*t” and “b*tch”). One of the accounts also had an avatar of someone with their middle finger up. You may not be aware, but this is a kid-friendly forum, and we’d appreciate if that type of vulgar language wasn’t posted on the forum in such an ostentatious manner. Also, it wasn’t really clear what you were doing, you just started posting your stuff without really any context, and it was also in the role play section (maybe you intended it for the fan fiction section?), so it appeared to be spam. One of the other accounts added on to what the Captain account first posted, also without any context, so it made it look even more like spam. I’ll unban the Captain account, but please stick to posting under one account. This is now the fourth account you’ve created in less than 24 hours.
I apologize as it could have been handled better on our end as admins, but we have had issues with spammers on here before and it appeared that you were posting spam. Please stick to one account and make sure your username is using “PG language” as you said in your post. Thank you.

Hi Doo, thank you so much for explaining. I was very confused before as you can see. Sorry for making so many accounts, but I am not behind all of them. Computerth0t is actually a friend of mine. They didn't realize that this was a kid-friendly page, and they do apologize. We just kept getting banned so we wanted to find out why, hence the new accounts. I will stick to this one from now on and be as appropriate as possible.
May we start our thread in the fanfiction thread then? We were trying to do the kind of RP where we continue the story not as a particular character, but just as the narrator of the story, free to write from any perspective. We can also just do strictly Scooby if crossovers are unwelcome as well.
Thank you, CaptainKatsuragi.

Hi CaptainKatsuragi,
I apologize that we started off on the wrong foot. We've had some spammers in the past that have chosen names with vulgar language, so I guess I had just assumed that combined with the out-of-context role play posts from multiple people were spam. That was an oversight on my part, and in hindsight it's probably a good lesson not to assume things. Feel free to do whatever you like in the fanfiction thread, and crossovers are just fine. You don't need approval from me or any of the other admins as long as what you're doing is appropriate for all audiences. Feel free to tell your friend they can create another account or just use the extra MyPetPenPen account that you created earlier, or whatever works easiest. I'm sorry for the big mix-up, and welcome to the forum!
