JensenS of Themat forums was recently banned as well as a lot of other guys, so JensenS created a new wrestling forum. Here's the link if anyone is interested: http://wrestlingtalk2.proboards47.com/index.cgi I know Mike, The Swayz, and I have all joined.

Why was someone banned from themat.com? I thought they were pretty lenient in what was allowed. If I come over there will they be mean to me?

I'm not completely sure of what happened. There were some posts deleted that didn't really need to be deleted and some people started calling out the moderators. I guess the moderators didn't like that to much so they started banning people.

Simple, there are some new administrators at the mat which have gone overboard banning people, some like JensenS without reason because he asked a question of the moderators.

He and several others have since been reinstated to participation on the mat as a result of the "mistakes" made. There were some that were banned, that imo deserved being banned, many others however where mistakes were made like JensenS, thus the reason for reinstatement, and at least in this situation an apology.

Many of those are rather upset at the actions and the way they were handled. It should be clear, that not even the moderators were aware of the actions or the reasons; in fact, up to this point the moderators have not been given guidelines or reasons for the bannings, and/or reinstatements.

As a side note, there are actually several national wrestling forums that have been around, JensenS is just the most recent picking up members as a result of the actions at The Mat.

As I have mentioned on the mat, and now here, please understand that there is a difference between moderators and administrators on a forum. Moderators at the mat, unless they are an administrator with USA Wrestling have no control over banning an individual. It is much like here, they can make recommendations, edit and delete posts, they can not ban an individual. Please do not categorize the moderators in this fiasco that occurred at the mat.

(nothing personal Curtis, but needed to give clarification)
