How do I report moderators who have not applied the rules correctly? There must be some review process here.

Send a PM or email to Alex, the owner.  Just make absolutely certain that you have all of your facts straight, because Alex can and will check them out himself.

Keep in mind that your alleged solicitors will likely have no license to practice in the United States, where both the owner and server are located.

Good luck with that. Not getting the tummy rub you felt entitled to isn't going to be grounds for a legal case but I'm sure a lawyer will be happy to take your money.

Why would you want to report them? Are they doing anything illegal?

If you don't agree with them or if you feel one of them is abusing their mod privileges, feel free to contact Alex about it and show him some evidence, screen shots, urls to where it happened.

Pure speculation on my part; but, judging by the language of his posts, maybe his only mode of communication utilizes insults, intimidation, and threats.

The threatening of international legal action by what I'm sure is a crack team of the best lawyers money can buy over some vague and probably imagined slight on the internet.

In 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them....maybe you can hire The WP Mod Team.

It's not the first time someone has threatened legal action against WP, and I doubt it will be the last.

The mods don't care, and I doubt Alex does either.

Throwing a tantrum because you refuse to follow the rules of an internet discussion forum you voluntarily joined rarely makes for a compelling legal case.

Thanks for doing what you do. That goes for all the mods, you guys and gals are wonderful people and we appreciate what you all do for us. It's unfortunate about the nonsense you all have to deal with. Thanks again. :heart:

Alex has virtually no involvement, anymore, on this website.
There are volumes of posts about not getting a reply from him.
You know this.
Why did you make that suggestion? :scratch:

The OP needs to discuss this with a more sympathetic moderator.
I would PM to get a less "Political" reply. :wink:
