I guess I'll make a topic to give an example then.

Thank you, because I have never understood page-streching. Also, I didn't know it was against the rules.

It is.

P.S. I deleted the example, it was only temporary.

If she didn't know it was against the rules, isn't you giving her a warning a little... unjustified?

MagmarFire

Well, not knowing some of the rules is really no excuse for breaking them. Eh, this is probably just a moot argument.

However, could we please put it together, people? We have, like, two topics dealing with rule enforcement already, so why don't we just take it to those topics or to PMs?



Advanceshipping and Rion had better be Chuck Norris approved.

I still say those warnings were unnecessary, seeing as how they were just doing what everyone else was doing.

MagmarFire

Then could you please say it in those two topics or in PMs? It'll be more organized that way.

Anyway, where were we...? ;)

Alright, I feel obligated to say something here. Anybody will tell you that I never give a warning for a first offense. I give them a verbal warning, and if they do it again, I get on their case. Lil Din here didn't know what page stretching was, therefore, a warning is not in order. If you're punished for something, you need to know what you're being punished for. Whocares, if you still feel that a warning is in order, go ahead, but I had to say something to that. You seriously should stop to think about who you're warning and why.

I agree with Zelda Veteran.  She wasn't aware what page stretching was, and she was only following suit with everyone else in this topic.  Although, JDog should use a little more discretion, I think his was just accidental.  I usually just resize or shrink something when it spams.  Page stretching is not against the rules (to my knowledge) since it can be easily remedied.  However if used in excess deliberately, I think it would be acceptable to warn for it

Zelda Veteran

Right, like if its only on a page, it can be linked in a matter of seconds. However, if a member has a signature that stretches the page, action should be taken. Anyways, what stretched the page in the first page? The large font? :-\

Hi no Seijin

I don't think it's the large font.  It's probably something more like a line of a's.  Something like this "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa," but longer.

It was both size and a string of continuous, unbroken letters.
