    How is it that GS can accuse someone of posting a disruptive post, delete it, and not tell you what you did to disrupt? I post negative reviews for games I don't like, and positive reviews for games that I do like. So you are telling me that GS will remove your negative reviews if they don't agree with the review? Way to go GS. Way to go. Bravo! I would like for them to at least show me the post and tell me what was so disruptive.

    Here are more details about your moderation..

    I believe the disruptive part was how many times you repeated that last sentence. We don't allow things like that.

    Repeated what last sentence? Show me the post! I could sit here and tell you how much you repeated a sentence and tell you how disruptive it was, but would you take my word for it? Of course not!

    By the way, I followed the "here are more details on your moderation", but it is a dead link. I get the "error" page.

    I would be more than happy to apologize for an invalid post, but don't take down the post and say I was inappropriate and then not show me why! You have done that in the past for valid negative reviews I have posted. I think you all might just want to promote some games more than others, and negative views, to you, are just unwarrented. I think that is the reason that games like Borderlands 2 get such high reviews when they shouldn't based on other review sites.

    Hmm, you reached a dead link? There are other ways to get there.

    Option One:

    1.On the top right hand corner of the page, click on your username.
    2.On the left of your profile page, look for a link called "Control Panel". Click on it.
    3. Look for a link called "My moderation History" and click on the details link in yellow on the side of each entry.

    Option Two:

    1. Navigate your way to the homepage of the forums.
    2.Look on the right hand side for a link called "My Moderation History. Click on the details link in yellow on the side of the entry.

    You should find the review which was modded, and the punishment which was only a warning, which is not even a technical punishment, just a note telling you to avoid that behavior in the future.

    You repeated the line "The game is just really pathetic." many times in the review, which is what led up to the moderation.
