Mixx and company I really want to start off and tell you guys how much I love everything you do to make Mixx possible. Your work is astounding and greatly appreciated, but I have just one little problem.
For the past 7 -8 months I and many others have been reporting this one specific member. We’ve reported him for revenge voting, hateful comments, spam submissions and spam comments. Yep I think you guys know who I’m talking about.
CyberPhoenix
http://www.mixx.com/users/cyberphoenix/
What happened?!
Now I’m not quite sure what’s going on here. Months ago, we reported this guy and he eventually got banned. It took some time because we understand everyone deserve some time to shape up. After having him banned for about 2 days all of a sudden he was let back on to the site. I’d like to quote the Joker from The Dark Knight. “What happened?! Did your balls drop off?! ” It’s like one day you have no problem with getting rid of him. Now you guys wont even touch him.
I say this all in a comical way of course. But still there is truth behind this. You had no problems with doing so in the past and now you won’t.
So my question to you guys is why?! Mixx did just fine with out him for those two days and I’m sure Mixx would still be functioning and having the same quality content today from others. I really wish I didn’t miss the night Kerry was on Social Blend because I really want to know what the hell is going on.
He’s been reported non-stop since that day and for whatever reason he is still not being banned for pure violation TOS and the Agreements he accepted to signing up. How come when other users are blatantly doing the same thing and we report them, they are removed immediately? But with CyberPhoenix he sticks around? I know I’ve just started to report him again recently. But come on I know he’s been reported non-stop by Brian and other people as well.
A Super Mixxer Still?!
Also why the hell is he a Super Mixxer?! If I’m not mistaken but if you violate any of the TOS, abuse your Super Mixxer Powers, etc isn’t this ability suppose to be revoked?! He’s clearly proved he should not have this ability. He marks unrelated topics as related and he marks his stories as “Breaking News” when they clearly aren’t. It’s sickening to see this continue.
One Spam Comment Removed. Are you listening?!
I know you guys are listening to us. Today some one on your side removed his spam comment after myself and many others reported it and asked for it to be removed. Please don’t stop there. Delete his other comments as well. He leaves spam comments on unrelated topics as proven below
“He does that ALL the time. He posted like a 200 line comment spamming one of my submissions that had nothing to do with my post. My post was an article criticizing KDE4, Mixx seems to ignore his comments and reports against them…same goes for his stories“

Do You Hear Me Mixx?! This user needs to go! Do You Hear DarkNemesis and everyone else?! They are sick of him! We know you listen, now let’s take it up a notch and get rid of another user that does not belong here.
Spam on Mixx is a No No
Remember my helpful article on spam?
Yeah this one right here
http://standardsdt.wordpress.com/2008/02/12/dealing-with-spam-on-mixx-spam-is-a-no-no/
Remember it?! If not take a good read for why this community cannot tolerate anyone like him. We can only do so much with reporting. But us the community need you guys to take action against people like him.
This user used to be on digg. Do a google search for CyberPhoenix and you’ll find his profile from digg will show up as a cache on either the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd page. Now if you try visiting http://digg.com/users/cyberphoenix his account no longer exists. If digg banned him, you guys should be doing so as well as he is not contributing in any way and I’m sure he was banned for the same reasons for what he’s doing over here.
I’ve Declared War against CyberPhoenix
In the end I’m declaring war against this user if you guys aren’t removing him. I’m reporting every single piece of crap he submits, every comment he leaves, down vote every submission he makes till my fingers are bleeding. And even still then I will be clicking away and typing away. I’ve reached my limit with this user. So I ask Brian, Greg, Joe, Julie, Honest_Ape, DarkNemesis618, gbarberi and all fellow mixxers to start reporting the hell out of this user if he is not removed. I also ask for other mixx users to stand up and inform the staff and everyone if he has revenge voted you, left you spam comments, has been hateful, etc.
CyberPhoenix you better watch out cause I’m about to make your life a living hell.
Mixx I love you, but…
Mixx I love you dearly, but it’s time something is done. And I’m doing something about it since our requests for him to be banned aren’t being listened to. I will no longer stay quiet and I will make this guys life a living hell if I have to. I know the rules and TOS of mixx and I will stay with in them. But this has gone on far enough and I’m starting to feel like our requests for reporting him and requesting him to be banned are going ignored like digg ignores it’s users. Please for mine, yours and everyone else’s sake just hit the ban button and be done with him.
If Chris, Kerry or some one wants to talk to me about this please feel free to contact me. But I’m done with this BS, and I will do whatever is possible in my power to make this user go away, even if it means I have to be vocal about it.
Sincerely,
Dave Tarantula
