Can't help but notice all the bans being handed out left right and centre...

I posted a pic of a BMW with a knob on it and recieved 5 infraction points because ONE person complained, which led to another ban (likely to be BM08 as it was aimed at him as he never shuts the f*ck up about his poverty spec BMW and how Ford are wank in comparison..!!)

Personally, a bit of banter now and again does not harm IMO but it would appear as this site is so money orientated these days, the rules have got stricter..!

Shame, ruining a good thing if you ask me..!

 

nothing wrong with alittle banter, aslong as all parties consider banter

 

How do you know how many infraction points you have?

 

FPMSL... If you mention a re-post you are now liable to points which ultimately leads to a ban..!!!

Bit much isn't it..

Re-post's:
Members posting useful topics on our forum are to be encouraged. Anyone found to be complaining about a topic being posted simply because they have seen it already are liable to receive infraction, and repeat or offensive offenders may receive bans. If you have seen it before, move on, other have not and likely never will if people keep complaining and trying to make people feel bad for posting.

 

it says under your name...

its a business now not a forum all imo of course

 

that seems alittle excessive

 

Westy, you do talk crap mate.
Shall i tell everyone what that picture REALLY WAS?

Also, lets see all these bans we hand out. Oh wait, you don't mean YOU do you by any chance?

 

a little exessive... its ridiculous

 

to be fair theres been some wierd stuff going on recently, some of the things benni and radders have posted could be a bit off putting to new members.

 

Anyone who wishes to discuss the actual rules can freely do so in the correct area on the post started for that specific reason. Click Me.

 

Excellent, hope your reported them for us?
The Icon you need is this one = and gives the webteam all the info they need to look into your request.

 

firstly... congrats on not locking/deleting/moving the thread... YET

How many are currently or recently been banned then Stu, in comparisin to this time 3 years ago... bet its more!

As for the pic that got me banned... its as below, pathetic to get 5 points for it!

 

Whos all these banned people then?

 

surely as a SUPER MODERATOR FPMSL you should know?

 

if that pic was in the muppet room then i see no harm?if in general discussion then thats different.

 

You're the one moaning about them all.

Who are they? Only recent bans I see are spammers..

 

it was in the muppet room Steve..

BM08 was spoting off how good his BMW is and how because I do not have a sig, I dont own a car So I put the pic up and he snitched again.. Harmless fun thats all, and whaaam, BANNED

come on suuuuper mod, how many mate?

 

Im asking you Westy

 

i see that as harmless fun and i actually had a laugh at it.thot muppet room was for people who didnt take offence.but i dont run this place so i aint arguin with the boss

 

The picture was a topic entitled for FAO BM08 (A member on here)

You then proceeded to hurl abuse at him and it was binned, and you given 5 points. The fact is, 5 points is nothing but a warning for most members as it takes ten to get banned, but guess what, you already had 5, and i suppose thats our fault too eh?

Grow up.

 

I guess its one rule for some and another for others... No consistancy!

SteveH - you are the super duper mod, so go and look at the banned list or recently banned and compare it to 3 years ago... No doubt I will be correct as usual

 

Westy, your not targetting users in a personal way on here. End of.

Grow up, or leave, i dont care which. At all.

 

I cant compare it to 3 years ago unfortunately. Though do you expect zero progress on this site in 3 years?

 

Westy, you got a short ban, you're back now so learn from from your mistakes instead of heading in the right direction of getting a permanent ban.

Just enjoy the forum, the rules are there to keep the place running as smoothly as possible for everyone including yourself.

 

He'll only start another thread because it's been moved.

I dont get why people are moaning. Dont be a dickhead and you wont get banned...not too hard really is it?

 

Oh and as for the "super duper mod" you will notice we all have it under our names, and it means we can moderate any part of the site, not just the rooms we have names under.

 

But steve, you dont have your name under any room

I was gonna say something about this the other day with all the new mods not having their name under a room...but i didnt

 

Im sure stu will get around to it

 

Things aren't free you know... Even the links you type into a post are turned into a money making exercise via an affiliate marketing scheme... IT WOULD SEEM SO ANYWAY.
