They might've done if you hadn't railed through the thread and murdered the mods brains for the last 2 hours.

I kinda agree. But if we increased ban lengths, I doubt people would be happy about that either

Tbf this Forum is great, but it does need a set structure with it's infractions as it's just if it gets randomly reported to the Mods when the Mods should infract what they personally find offensive at that moment themselves.

Spam will not be tolerated. This includes posting posts made entirely of smileys and posting GIFs 24/7. The odd post like this is fine, but when it becomes frequent, or you appear to add not much else to the forum, a warning/infraction may be given. The one exception to this, is in the LF discussion thread, where screepcaps of what is happening are often posted. Creating multiple thread on the same subject also qualifies as spam. We do not expect you to read every post, however, it is easy to scan through the first page and see if there is already a thread on the subject you are discussing...before you post your thread.

Again..I don't understand this either :S

That doesn't even make sense

I suppose something like that could work during off season but not during BB, things get very heated in there and sometimes a one day ban gives members enough time to calm down then they come back and actually discuss things like adults again.

Yep a lot stricter, both on and off season, if the # points per infraction given is lowered and at a set amount i think people will definitely calm down a lot

if you're getting three points per infraction you've only got 3 lives (if you will) and you're out, if you lower that to two points or one and give each offence a set # of points that all members are aware of, they can't contest it, because it's in black and white

Tbf my infraction was to do with the infraction rules.

But seriously getting away from that, why on Earth did Jessica on her return open this up as her first topic anyway?

I think he's saying people shouldn't be allowed to report. You should only be infracted for things the mods see themselves.

Translation: Only if you're caught by a mod.

Instead of always having members having to do the job for you, you all should be doing your jobs more efficiently, I've seen Mods on here allow some nasty **** left on the site and they've not even deleted it just because it wasn't reported to them.

That's the point I was trying to make.

Then that comes back to the set points thing which we honestly can't do, there is basically far too much rule breaks at different levels

Also James is here a hell of a lot more than most seem to think, just because he doesn't post a lot on the main forum doesn't mean he isn't around

Hm okay. Also I wasn't on about him not posting on the forum

But that's not the mods letting it go, that's the mods not seeing it.

They can't read everything surely?

I've seen them post directly after it sometimes.

We cant possibly read every post that gets made

If this was so nasty, why did you not report it yourself

We do read the majority of stuff, but a lot of its just skim reading..I don't personally read through every post properly just to check fro rulebreaks. What a lot of people need to understand here is, we are members aswell as mods. We arent here solely to sort out your messes. Its not like other sites that pay mods to do a job, we give up our free time to (attempt to) keep this site running well. Yeah we make mistakes sometimes, and when pointed out, if we agree its a mistake we have no issues reversing whatever we did (members have agreed in here..members who have had bans/infractions reversed) however a PM full of crap is not going to make us remove an infraction. Nor is saying your offensive post was a joke. Sorry.

I actually like all of the Mods on TIBB as people, but some of them are a little too lax on the wrong things imo when it comes to the rules.

Do you realise this isn't our actual jobs? 99% of internet forums rely on reports from members to keep the threads cleaned of ****, there is no way, even if we all had no life and spent 24 hours per day on this forum that we could see every rule break, it's just not possible at all.

Idgi why though, if people are constantly breaking rules, then they're going to be constantly infracted? Idg how they can contest it?

This actually has nothing to do with that.

And I don't report things very often because it takes a lot for me to get that offended in the first place.

But I've seen people wish death to celebrities on this site, and the Mods have done nothing and they've been on the threads that they've been said on too.
