Timzcat are you feeling ok?
Timzcat are you feeling ok?
You banned me for 3 days for calling someone an "idiot" and you banned Warrtalon for what ever reason.
My gripe is that I get banned, no email, no PM, no nothing, I didnt even know what I was banned for until doing about 10 minutes of searching.
I think that's a pretty lame excuse to ban someone, not sure about the WarrTalon thing, but he's a pretty valuable member here, he told me it was because he told someone to "stop being a dick".
I mean c'mon those are both pretty tame.
edit: BTW up until this point, and even now, I've had no sort of warning for any type of behavior, and even now I don't know if the 3 day break is considered a warning or what ever, but calling someone an "idiot" and getting 3 days...c'mon.

Profanity, racial slurs, and other unnecessary comments (off topic) are senselessly degrading the forum, thus making this place almost useless for people who come here to learn.
All this WILL be put to a stop. So, as a group, we have decided that we will not let this go any further. As of right now, the entire staff will be operating under zero tolerance which will help us get rid of the members that are belligerent. And in turn, this place should have a turnaround that will serve as a basis for the members who actually contibute.
Here's the layout:
- The first offense which includes the following: name calling, profanity, and racial slurs etc... WILL get your account suspended for approximately one week.
- Off topic useless comments gets 1 warning. Repeat offenses will result in a 3 day ban.
- Repeat offenses WILL get you banned indefinitely AND your IP WILL be blocked.
And of course, some offenses are grounds for immediate ban (personal threats, theft etc...)
However, in order for this to work, we will need your (members) help, considering that we cannot monitor all threads in real time. We are counting on you to help us out by reporting the posts and threads to a moderator. We are sure that we're not the only individuals who wish to see this place improving, so please help us out!

like otter said, what you did is against site policy and even though you don't like it, Timzcat did the right thing. and yes, you can look at the 3 day time out as a simple warning and just make sure that you don't do it again.
