    Well were do I begin.


    01) They harrasse others (Firstly we warn then give infractions which finally lead from a 5 day ban to 2 weeks. If they repeat the ban becomes perminant with an IP ban.

    02) Plagiarism gets an instant Ban Once found guilty.

    03) Constant flaming within threads after repeated warnings (See 01))

    04) Bullying of other members. Will finally end in a ban (See 01))

    05) Insulting and harrassing behaviour within PMs after again repeated warnings and infractions given out

    06) Trouble causing on a large scale again the usual warnings will be issued

    Basically this is a family forum with an excellent member base and Bans are pretty much rare but they do happen.

    Wait, I still don't fully understand the Night_Haunter thing. A month or so ago he was PMing me, then he disappeared again. Did he do something wrong? Did he ask to be banned for the sake of it???

    Simple answer yes. He has his reasons and they are his. If he wants that user name un-banned it will be. My guess is he wants a fresh start. Thats all im going to say really.

    God, banning members was never fun...
    Being a mod wasn't all that fun either. Not without the awesome purple, atleast.

    Well, the best part of being a mod is being able to help people out with minor mistakes that can't be fixed without mod priviliges.

    The worst part is having to deal with disciplinary issues, and in such a way not to cause larger issues.

    The truth is, I do more of the former than the latter, and that makes it bearable.
