I know that justin has just removed posts, but since when did it become one of the forum rules? Was this posted so that everyone had to reaccept the rules? If not, then I would like my infraction removed, please.

Adsense.

LOL. Yeah, I know that, tool. And based on the rules, my post was infractible. I just don't remember being notified of the rule, therefore didn't realize that I was breaking an actual RULE.

How many times do we have to say knock it off before you realize it's a rule? C'mon.

You deleted those other posts, didn't you? Or did you infract them too? I just remember, when you had other rule changes to the site, you made every member reaccept the rules. As I said, based on the new rule, my post is obvi intractable. I just don't remember accepting the new rules. See my QQuestion?

Then no, I don't see your QQuestion.

Yes, we had been deleting posts but there had been enough warning for everyone to know that kind of stuff isn't acceptable anymore.

I expect many QQs now that you're limited to the basement for a week.

OK. You're just banning me to the basement because I had an valid question?

He's probably banning you to the basement due to your multiple infraction points, but hey, that's just a guess...

I thought that happened automatically. Don't get your panties in a bunch. Honestly, the questions that I have asked this morning are truly valid questions, and not QQuestions.

Completely understandable. In the past, however, have you not made members reaccept the NEW RULES when a new rule has been in place?

lol how long until Snot comes to ETB's rescue?

The system has a backup of old points that it won't automatically clear for some reason, so it thinks you are already perma-banned.

It's usually the other way around. He took a new job, (I think) so I haven't seen him around lately.

OIC

Can we please have the rules updated to reflect the new rules? It seems the moderators are more interested in a power trips than providing an environment in which the members are happy to contribute to the community. What is the line?

Adsense isn't coming back. This is the reality. Even if it does come back, you'll have disenfranchised the entire user base and I don't know if you have noticed but we don't get a lot of fresh blood around here. Now, if you want to update the rules that all members must follow, including LJ and C4F, then I think people would be less upset with your spotty enforcement. Let me clarify, people will still be upset with your spotty enforcement but at least its a rule and members can choose to follow that rule knowing the consequences.

This place becomes more like JJ every day, but at least JJ is consistent(ly bad).

They have been.

This is the case. I mentioned it in the ban note but I guess that doesn't show up to the user?

No, I did not receive a ban note.

ernest_t_bass;1267565 wrote:No, I did not receive a ban note.

I apologize. Basically, you should've been auto-banned for a week after the infraction from Laley last week. I wasn't paying close enough attention and didn't realize it wasn't working. I just checked this morning and it had you marked with 8 infractions already so it already thought you were banned. I only gave you a 7 day basement ban even though you technically have 2 infractions. You're welcome.

Also, stop using big_time_fan.

Apparently I can't edit my post once I've been banned... I just clicked on a SB thread, and I got the message, justin. l can't access my subscriptions under the ban either?

I know you can't edit posts. I'll see if I can turn on allowing you to access subscribed threads.

Um... why? dlazz have to stop using Cher? Other members who have been banned have to stop using their other usernames? Before you ask, I don't know of any other banned members who had/have other usernames.

Convenient. Ban a user then change the rules. Wonderful. Great.
