Re: Banned
On a earlier comment, I think the moderators do a very good job.
Every now and then, people actually do make mistakes. It is only natural, no one is perfect. I have done a post before for example that actually had a naughty word in, which I posted without thinking. What happened? I had a moderator just edit it out, private messaged me just reminding me that it isn't allow, a slap on the wrist with points and expiry date.
It is direct, straight to the point, and it is lenient in the good way. I didn't mean to do that post, and I responded to the moderator letting them know I was wrong and apologised for making them do that extra work. The punishment justified the breach. I was kindly just reminded about the rules and sent on my way.
The thing is, what makes this good compared to other forums, some forums might ban you for 3 to 7 days for it. All it does is makes people feel victimised and unfairly punished. Yes, they broke the rules but think of it in this example, imagine you was a child and you broke a cup. It was just one of those cheap, easy to replace ones. You got the parents which say "be more careful" and you clean up your mess, everything sorted. Then you have the parents which beat their kids senseless over it. I believe .org operates much in the first example which makes people even receiving the punishment respect the person giving them the punishment.
I think the moderators do a great job, even ones I unfortunately had to cross with on official business.

They tolerate when we are mad. I recall being mad with BG for doing thread necromancy. Oh yes, I got one warning point and a minor warning.
Even though, he tolerated it and I apologized for it.

Re: Banned
Nah, that never even earned me as much as an infraction. My ban was due to suspicion that I was hacking accounts; but it was promptly revoked as I have proven myself innocent.
