Probably the best admin in NA.  Also, he tells the best jokes ever.  If you are bored, I suggest going into IRC and hearing one of this jokes.

Sorry if I focus on holding objectives and damaging enemy players instead of kill whoring and hitting my teammates. I think 1,000+ score shows I was being useful. As a level 26 shielder I got into the middle of the enemy, hit as many people as I could before I died. Unfortunately it's harder to finish the job with 6 power strike.

I was muted for the following statement:

wanting to have spook unbanned is not relevant to the thread entitled Unban SpookPalace? 

Nonsense.

Funny how that this topic is meant for in game decisions and doesn't correlate to Moderator decisions yet you still post here hmm....

This is the admin feedback board described in sticky as: "This board is for admin feedback. You can post feedback about any admin on any server but do not create multiple threads for the same admin."

I don't see anything anywhere to indicate that we can't comment about forum moderating here.  Where should I have directed this instead?

You were muted for posting something in breach of the unban forum rules after I'd already given two warnings about doing so in the thread.

Here are those rules, just in case you're as willfully ignorant as you seem to be making yourself out to be:

This section is for ban/unban requests, everything else will be considered spam and sanctioned accordingly.
Only posts allowed are on-topic posts by the people asking for a ban/unban, admins and witnesses that can provide relevant information regarding the individual case.

• Do not post here if you don't have something directly case-related to say. No lobbying, general discussion whether a rule is fair, how admin is nub, etc. Take those things elsewhere, keep this area clear.
• Before posting anything at all, please consider reading the Official Server Rules first.
• General rules discussion must be taken elsewhere (General Discussion).
• When making a ban case, having screenshots or video recordings along with a coherant arguement will help.
• If you are permanently banned we will not unban you before you make a unban request. Make a post, if you don't know why you are banned, ask. If you don't make an unban request, you will NOT be unbanned. (If we don't know that you understand why you are banned, we have no reason to unban you.) If you know why you are banned, you will earn a lot of goodwill by telling us why the action was wrong, and promise to not do it again.
• Please remain calm and coherant when posting here, even if you think someone made a mistake. This will allow us to resolve your case quickly!
• If your request was denied, do not post another thread about the same request.
• Failure to abide by the Forum Rules in this section, Unban requests: how to by chadz, Ban requests: how to by cmpxchg8b, or the rules and guidelines outlined in this post may result in a warning or mute. Failure to read all of the above will not be considered a valid excuse for avoiding punishment.
  

And here are the two warnings you patently ignored:

If people are going to continue the unhelpful and immaterial chanting I am going to start issuing mutes.

if you guys simply must discuss the ins-and-outs of this situation, post in this thread on the spam board. Stop making irrelevant posts here!

[OssumPawesome]

People make posts in ban/unban forum related to how they feel about the player in question or the ban generally all the time - as it is related to the ban.  I've never seen anyone had action taken against them besides me for this.  I refer you to these threads:

http://forum.meleegaming.com/na-%28official%29/%28unban%29-paul_in_ho_pow/
http://forum.meleegaming.com/na-%28official%29/ban-request-petergius-mb/
http://forum.meleegaming.com/na-%28official%29/ban-vokano/
http://forum.meleegaming.com/na-%28official%29/%28ban-request%29-kaiden-of-chaos/

Why am I being muted for this action when others are not?  I'll tell you why - Spook's ban is controversial.  I was calling attention to the controversy.
I'm not saying Canary should be strung up for this.  I'm just saying that again and again the admin community on crpg seems to be so concerned with doling out justice and enforcing the rules exactly that sometimes they forget to chill out and have fun playing a video game.

So, please Canary, chill out.

You broke the rules, deal with it. Many people got muted for posting irrelevat shit in ban/unban threads, including myself many moons ago.

This is the game admin feedback section, is this even the right place to discuss canary's decisions as a forum mod?
