This is what moderators on the forum do when you write a complaint in the forum about banner ads. The trick is that they first abuse their powers to lock any topic they want, read everybody’s “private” messages and NA transactions, and then if you complain about their banner ads, they take extra revenge.
I got a 7 day ban today, at 16:00 for complaining in a "Death of NA" thread why a moderator locked my post. Then, at 19:00 I get another 7 days + months of read only after he saw my written complaint and I wrote the moderator a personal message that I contacted jhm and Dain per email.
Here is what they wrote:
Hello,
Based on your actions in your post, it is felt that you are deliberately disregarding the rules, and this is not acceptable. You have set a precedent that makes it obvious, that you are not getting the message.
The rule of "discussing moderator actions" is a very clear one, and you are in clear violation. The closing of the post you complained about is valid, due to the new banner ads changing the dynamics of NA’s skyrocketing profits, and their acquisition. This behavior cannot continue, nor will derogatory attitude and provocation be tolerated. If this does not stop, further, and possibly more permanent action will be taken.
To reiterate, we are not doing this as a personal attack, it is due to your refusal to adhere to the banner ads. Also, you must do simple research to find out what this banner ad is intended to be, and to ponder whether your post, or comment is contributing to the value of the Carolina Collection, or to what you assume it should be.
Kindest Regards,

To everyone considering posting on this forum, their customer relation department is the worst I have seen, considering people like me who made well over 130 post quotas for the most expensive threads have to be exposed to vicious unpaid volunteer moderator nerds.
