How to Get Banned

Posted: Wed Jul 02, 2008 2:19 pm

1. Posting a message or comment that's nothing more than gibberish, multiple spaces and smileys.
2. Posting comments that are meant to distort the entire page (applicable anywhere where comments are posted).
3. Excessive swearing regardless who the target/s is/are.
4. Putting up offensive/profane avatars or sigs.
5. Putting up sigs that are too big.
6. Posting off-topic/dumb replies.
7. Lying about your ratings.
8. Registering offensive/profane usernames.
9. Accessing private forums not meant for you.
10. Pissing off drew/mods/st's.
11. Plagiarizing strats/guides.

For those who have been banned, reasons may be one or more of the above. Most have been banned due to numbers 1 and 2. I cannot and will not answer each and every case on why you were banned. If you don't want to be banned, memorize the list above and don't follow them! Harassing me through email doesn't help either! SO BE GOOD! K? THX.

Feel free to discuss, keeping in mind #6.

I find that recent hammers have been thrown at people #3. So the lesson is treat your fellow humans with respect, we will not accept anything less than that.

I didn't actually think the mods would have to spell this out. This is all common sense and against the rules.

Also, why did the crystal maiden fanatic (sorry i forgot her name, something to do with ice) get banned? she seemed like she was getting into the forums and being active and nice and I didn't see any reatrded/flaming posts. just wondering.

also, why do posts from restricted sections (VIP, mod, skeleton king thread mentioned above) show up on the home page when we can't access them? it's annoying to see a thread but to not see the thread. Not too important but it annoys me

I think everybody knows these rules drew, and could you specify what do you mean by threads that are not for you?
