The rules for banning are pretty much don't do anything stupid, and you won't get banned. You flame, you'll get a short ban. You consistently flame, you haven't learnt, you're getting a Perma-Ban. You post illegal things, like CP, You're getting a Perma-ban more often than not. There's no "Third Strike and Out". You'll see people with endless short bans, and some people with instant Permas.
I think that when its up to the discression of the mods, they get it right most of the time.
[QUOTE=WebOfTrust;23690018] Whys is ZekeTwo not permabanned for being alt of permabanned user Zeke[/QUOTE] Add Hezzy on Steam "Hey Hezzy am I ban on sight" "No" Make alt
[QUOTE=mikfoz;23705743]Because you'd all not be able to resist trolling the banned people and get permabanned like the dumbass golds who do it. [/QUOTE] But that would be good cos all the idiots would get perma'd. But i still think it should stay a gold member perk.
Nevermind I found it
Alright, I was banned for 12 hours yesterday for posting in a porn thread (I didn't even know that rule, but ignorance is no excuse), and I saw the refugee camp and everything, but when I came back later after wiping my cookies, it wouldn't let me on on the basis that someone using my IP was banned in the last 3 months. Is this supposed to happen because if so it kind of invalidates the refugee camp IMO seeing as how you can't access it?

[QUOTE=acidcj;23708281]What was the old limit? and why was it increased[/QUOTE] old limit was 2001 changed for reasons unknown
They could tell you, but then they'd have to kill you.
Does every rating count? Or does it have to reach a certain point to count as one?
[QUOTE=MorbidlyObese;23711287]Does every rating count? Or does it have to reach a certain point to count as one?[/QUOTE] Two people must rate the same rating for it to show up.
[QUOTE=MorbidlyObese;23711287]Does every rating count? Or does it have to reach a certain point to count as one?[/QUOTE] It takes 2 for it to show up on a post. Edit: Ninja'd
I know this sounds stupid and isn't really a question about the forum but, who is the guy in this emote? :wtc: I have always wondered.
It makes me think of Billy Mays.
[QUOTE=Mokkan13;23704699]So Xion, to clarify, there's no ban for helping a 24 hour or less, but you get banned for helping someone banned for over a day?[/QUOTE] No, you get banned if you post in a thread for a <24 hour ban. Because it is pointless. Anything in between that and a permaban is acceptable, if it is useful and worthwhile.
[QUOTE=Fenriswolf;23711526]I know this sounds stupid and isn't really a question about the forum but, who is the guy in this emote? :wtc: I have always wondered.[/QUOTE] It's William Riker
It is? Yeah I guess it is, he looks more black in the picture but now that I think about it it looks just like him.
[QUOTE=Xionasis;23713156]No, you get banned if you post in a thread for a <24 hour ban. Because it is pointless. Anything in between that and a permaban is acceptable, if it is useful and worthwhile.[/QUOTE] Or if in doubt just don't post in there at all.
Is Gold membership an annual or indefinite thing? As in, is there a recurring charge or is it one-off?
[QUOTE=Ali Legend;23714601]Is Gold membership an annual or indefinite thing? As in, is there a recurring charge or is it one-off?[/QUOTE] You cannot pay for gold member anymore. You get it for 2 years and 2,000 posts. Once you get it you have gold member until you are permabanned. [editline]05:28PM[/editline] [QUOTE=The Pink Scotti;23667002]Please can you tell me the updates?[/QUOTE] Late, but they were just vBulletin patches.
Oh really? Wow. That's pretty unconventional. How does the admin afford the server bills then? Adverts for guests?
garry wears hats made of money, i don't think he has problems paying for the forums
[QUOTE=Dragon;23714823]garry wears hats made of money[/QUOTE] Badass, can I have pictures?
OK, just I need somewhere to host several terrabytes of lolcats and child porn, I assume Garry won't mind? [QUOTE=PeanutTHENINJA;23714858]Badass, can I have pictures?[/QUOTE] :suicide:
Why cant we pay for gold anymore? Is it because that one kid charged $1,000 to his moms credit card?
I don't see why that would make a difference. It's not like the admin would be responsible for what some fucktard did with his mother's credit card.
