Age changed incorrectly: Need an Admininistrator

[Countess Bathory]

Hello, I have two problems with my profile, one is minor, and the other is a larger issue (my age).

About a week and a half ago, I was very angry, got into an argument with another user (who I have since apologized to, and become friends with) during which I egregiously broke the chat rules against posting pornography. I earned a one-week ban for this, and, though I'm not sure, I believe my age was changed from 12 to 112 as a further illustration of my immature behavior.

Obviously, this is an issue for several reasons, the most notable being that getDare's policy against underage solicitation. For this reason, I have avoided PMing users that don't already know me, for fear of earning a permanent ban.

Secondly, I have a minor problem with my profile, which I'm not even sure if it's an issue or not. My profile says that I am still banned, even though my ban expired last week, and I've been able to fully interact with the getDare community since then. I'm not sure if "banned" is the correct word or not, but it does imply that I'm not able to respond to other users. This creates problems for other innocent users who would like to interact with me, as they may have the impression that I'm no longer active on the site.

Summary:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Problems:

1. My profile says that my age is 12
2. My profile says I am banned, when I am not (it was a week ban)

Solutions to Problem 1, in the order I would prefer them:

1. Change my birthyear to 1560, the year that the historical Elizabeth Bathory was born
2. Change my birthyear to 1904, the year it was before I was banned
3. Change my birthyear to 1993, the year in which I was actually born

Solution to Problem 2:
Whatever you feel is appropriate; I acted inexcusably to earn my week ban, and I can absolutely assure you that I won't breach getdare rules again (which I have re-read several times during and since my week ban). With that said, my incorrect ban status affects other users as someone wanting to contact me for dares/tasks, etc. will think that that kind of effort is futile. Perhaps changing it to "On probation" would be a good solution?

Again, I apologize for the behavior that got me banned in the first place; I wouldn't have either of these problems if it weren't for my behavior. Thank you very much for your time and help. Sincerely,

Countess Bathory

Just so you know, to remove the 'ban' status. You simply had to make a post in a forum that counts posts like the one you just did. Second, you shouldn't have gotten yourself banned, but glad you understood and learned from it. Third, I think it should be to your actual year you were born.

The ban tag stays on a profile until you make a post in a forum that counts (so not in person above or lounge games, for example) which means that now that you've made this thread, the tag is gone. Problem 2, solved.

As for the first one, I personally have no clue why your age says 12 and Rachie is the only person that has the ability to make those changes as far as I know so you'll be best off messaging her for the change to 1993.

PS, you weren't banned for the porn posting, it was more for the several reports on different occasions of telling others to kill themselves and to do other violent things.

Thanks; I don't remember telling anyone to kill themselves in a serious context; though I remember talking about telling others to do that on another site. I don't need proof; unfortunately, that's not the kind of thing I'd remember well, and I certainly wouldn't put it past myself. I'm morally stunted to say the least...but I am trying to grow, if only slowly.

Definitely the violence, though; I've realized the importance of consent now. I'll tone it down; or play off site if play gets extreme (but either way I'm not going to push as much as I have).

Thanks for everything

I just noticed this is still not fixed in 2018

Please don't necropost on getDare: it adds no substantial material to the conversation. Before you post on an old (dead) thread, check the date of the thread poster's last activity.
