A few thank you's revisited

RE: A few thank you's revisited
To me, it seems like it would be impossible to list every possible reason why someone could be reprimanded, have their message board privileges revoked, or even be banned from the club. The more you try to list these types of things out, the more people will question punishments or even deliberately tread the fine edge just to provoke a reaction.

Keeping the rules simple allows better flexibility to address new or unusual circumstances, although it might, admitedly cause some confusion on what is allowed or not. The second part of a good system is a graded system of punishments. The first step is a relatively minor punishment, e.g. a warning on the MB that a post or thread is getting inappropriate. The second step is a loss of posting privileges for a certain time period. The third step is outright banning from the club. If someone gets all the way to step 3, there is obviously a disconnect between them and the club rules/management and it is probably just as well to part ways.

The recent thread with POS is an example of getting to step 1, and the situation resolved itself. What is the big issue there? :conf:

As far as favortism, I don't really remember a situation that anyone else has reprimanded, lost posting privileges or been banned because they badmouthed another website here. So why would POS be banned for doing so? The recent bannings were about those members insulting members here on another website (and at least some of the banned members had definitely already been through steps 1 and 2). Whether you agree with their bannings, the situations are different so they shouldn't be compared.
