I kind of think the boards (or at least some of the mods) should be a bit less strict about things. I've been banned many times for almost nothing its almost ridiculous last time I was banned for a slight bit of profanity which no one else seemed to even notice. Don't get me wrong other then that you guys are doing a great job but sheesh some of us are humans and I know a lot of people who try there best to behave even get banned its just kind of silly.
What do you think?

I agree. They should be ISB style rules.

Isb is a bit too laxed for a formalish forum like this but I do think they should be a bit less strict.

I try to be a little less strict if the person has had a pretty good track record. If someone has broken many rules, if they do anything wrong I don't care what it is they will be banned. I think some of the rules may be a little too strict, but if they weren't we (the Mods) would probably have to work overtime to clean up all the mess. And if it were up to me you would get some kind of reward for the trivia tournament, but I can't do anything about that. Sorry.

If you were banned for profanity it's probably not your first infraction. It generally takes about 3 strikes within a period of time to warrant a ban. 1st time you get a PM informing you it's not appropriate in case you missed it somewhere in the board guidelines. 3rd strike and you're out for a day. I think it's pretty fair. Is it really so hard to omit 7 words or so from your vocabulary? There are numerous ways of expressing disdain or anger in the English language.

That is really poo.
Back to the subject, I think it is a little too strict at times. Why did mkmileena get banned anyway?

Poo, while a bit childish, is an acceptable alternative. And we can't tell you why another user was banned as it violates our privacy policy. Sorry!
