My username is “szf7912” – why has my IP been blocked and disabled? ?
Time, Username, Action, Original User Group/New User Group, Validity Period, Reason: 11-2-13 22:05 – szf7912: Prohibited access for Grade 3 students at Haichuan Primary School / Access forbidden. 11-2-16: No gratitude nor rating given for the assistance provided by others. A little punishment! Please follow the forum rules. The lifting period has arrived
Oh, if I don’t rate others, my account might get banned. I still have no idea how to rate people though
I support the moderator’s approach; people should learn to be grateful
Reply to 2# Cleaner: Could you provide more specific details? I searched for his post and didn’t find any requests for assistance or rewards; moreover, there are too many posts of this type here. Why is it necessary to require this person to do it?
In my opinion, all members should do this: actively rate those posts they find good—posts from which they’ve gained knowledge and broadened their horizons. This is a traditional Chinese virtue of reciprocity; it’s also a way to acknowledge and express gratitude to others. Moreover, it’s a right that every member has. In particular, for posts we ourselves have made, we should actively give ratings to express our gratitude to fellow users for their thoughtful replies! Of course, individual watering posts are exceptions (and they are very rare). Support this practice: impose a moderate punishment by not allowing ratings on replies to one’s own posts!
The suspension of this member was carried out by a moderator from the Process Engineering section; this moderator favors the idea that those who post requests for help should pay attention to their own posts and rate those who offer assistance, as it is something that everyone of us should do based on basic moral principles. However, the moderator’s action of imposing bans was a bit excessive. On that day, after I noticed that he had taken such actions against several members, I promptly communicated with him and asked him to stop using that form of punishment. Considering that most members do not have a thorough understanding of the rules and regulations, it is recommended that for such issues, a \"+1 or -1 point penalty\" be applied as a reminder; the most severe punishment suggested is a \"warning\". Once again, I urge everyone to check their posts in a timely manner – it is a virtue to rate others!

It’s true that we should be grateful for others’ positive responses to our posts, but the absence of ratings does not mean we aren’t grateful. Moreover, replies are not necessarily answers to questions. After all, the forum is just a virtual space; without ratings, there’s no reason to raise it to a moral level. Additionally, the forum rules only state, “5. … Please indicate at the end of the post that the issue has been resolved, and don’t forget to say thank you as well – this will help create a more harmonious atmosphere among members.” This isn’t something every member is required to do. As managers of the forum, moderators should not punish inactive members in order to make the forum more active. Doing so is no different from the misuse of public power by many current rulers in China. I hope that the forum’s administrators will impose appropriate penalties on such moderators based on the principles of equality and freedom, and provide compensation to szf7912, as, according to the forum’s rules, szf7912 hasn’t done anything wrong.
Reply to 9# yumiaodl1983: Thank you for your support in developing Haichuan’s forum, as well as for your supervision of our management and your valuable suggestions. The mute penalty for szf7912 has been lifted, and I have also “educated” the moderator in charge of managing this. szf7912 I will provide a compensation of 50 points in wealth in a dedicated post. Whether in virtual forums or in real society, persuasion and education should be the most fundamental approach; using violence to counter violence is not acceptable.
