You get a warning first, right? I mean... I'm stupid so i wont even know if I'm spamming before I'm banned...

If I'm getting banned it would be nice to know before I actually get banned though...

Keep rocking Jack, don't let anyone ruin your great forum! I love it!  ;D
Title: Re:The Ban List
Post by: Jack on February 25, 2006, 09:27:31 PM
NHah you'll get like three warnings. You'll see it coming from far away.

Also, warnings fade away after a period of good behavior.

Not to worry, and thanks!

Why would he do that?
Title: Re:The Ban List
Post by: Jack on April 11, 2006, 10:01:44 AM
Because he was displeased with the fact that I locked the religion debate thread because it was devolving into a gigantic flame war. He took it personally and left in disgust.

You should expand the ban list. I won't mention any names but certain users defy you regularly and merely receive a slap on the wrist. What does this say about you?

I'm not saying you're weak or lame or anything like that. I'm merely saying you made rules so you should make some effort to enforce them.

I've said my piece.

I have been recently cracking on those whom i'm sure we have a common understanding that you are referring to. My hope is that, given the chance, they can reform themselves and become normal productive members of this forum. Otherwise, yes, they will be banned if they cannot shape up. Most of these people are already on multiple warnings and thus their last chance.

My philosophy in this is that I'd rather give someone the chance to change their attitude than outright ban them and make them hostile to the site. it may seem black and white, but I have to balance the two extremes.

(And yes, Darkness_link, you are one of them. You are on two warnings: please stop doing inane one-word posts or you will not longer be welcome here).

About dan_the_man:  Yeah, what Jack said.  He took the locking of a topic personally and then decided that since he couldn't debate God's existance, there was absolutely nothing else to talk about here on this Zelda forum.  This was the thread that got locked. (http://desertcolossus.com/forum/index.php?board=1;action=display;threadid=529)  Hey, who wouldn't lock a thread like that, unless you were dan_the_man...  Oh yeah, he couldn't spell "contravershal." :D

And you won't be banned, as long as you follow the rules.

I'm not the bad guy, but people are making me out to be the devil for expecting them to follow the rules.

UPDATE: (This doesn't help my case much...)

Medli is officially banned. She spammed again, despite repeated warnings and infinite patience from the mod team.

She had more than enough warnings and had time to turn herself around.  Still, she talked back and kept going about her spamish ways.

Yes, quite a bit of spamming.

And shouldn't proper punctuation be a rule too?
Title: Re:The Ban List
Post by: Darth Wyndisis on April 14, 2006, 09:14:53 AM
Not a rule, no, but a (forced?) suggestion, yes.
Title: Re:The Ban List

It's a preference, but I can't make it a rule.

Title: Re:The Ban List

Well, if it were a rule, which I'm not saying that it should be, then I would have an easier time understanding what some people say. :)
Title: Re:The Ban List
Post by: Jack on April 14, 2006, 03:54:27 PM
Yeah, but then I'd have to ban 3/4's of the people on these forums.

It'd be a four-person echo chamber, haha.
Title: Re:The Ban List
Post by: LanceSwords on April 15, 2006, 04:17:06 PM
Well a small to medium amount would most likely listen, but yeah, it'd be lonely. But you would be able to read everything.

Forget this site.  The whole Internet would be deserted except for a few survivors that can talk properly.  Desperately looking for someone to criticize for their bad language, they will turn on each other in the end.  The End.

It's a new month, so none. Though i don't think you had any to begin with.

Anyways, this topic is worn. I'm locking now, but I'll reopen it if someone else gets banned.

Ganon/Postman/Jack Sparrow is banned for spamming and harassment.

Yes, he's banned, but isn't written on the list. I'll do it (he's banned already, so putting him on the list would help).
Title: Re:The Ban List
Post by: Jack on January 07, 2007, 09:23:28 PM
Just FYI that I am confirming the mod team's banning of Sabata. I can't speak to the incident since I wasn't here at the time, but I trust the mod team.

K, back to business, folks.

Holy wow on a wow stick, we're losing members like wow.

As of 09:05:34pm EST on Sunday, July 27 2008, JDog (Axel, Sora, Roxas, all the sports stars, Rikku, Kairi, Walter Kronkite, Superman, Batman, Bizarro, the Green Lantern, Hobgoblin, the Martian Manhunter, Wonder Woman, Jesus, Mohammed, Jehovah, and Bastian Balthazar Bux) is now banned.

His ban will be finalized when Gamefreak next descends from the heavens.
