Why did you put transparent in quotes?
:lmao:
That I like
I would love it. Would save mods a lot of work so we could focus on our other duties. People would see what's considered worthy of an infraction and have no excuse for making the same mistake. Plus it would save the hassle of waiting to discuss a more complex situation with a fellow mod/admin as precedent would be set so a decision could be made quickly.
I'm linking this to Site Suggestions as well :)
:grrr:
Posting Rules
Low Content Posts: Please do not make posts containing no content (ie, "first post," "hello, I'm new here," etc.). These just litter up the forums and with over 100,000 registered users, we need to eliminate these as much as possible. If you do not like a thread, then just vote it a "1" and move on; replies consisting solely of trolling fall into this category. As a general rule, write as if you were speaking in real life to another human being. Do not use any catchphrases, memes, internet slang, or any other crap that makes you look like a 12-year old.
Worthless Posts: We do not care if you are drunk or high; please do not inform us of either. Please do not register gimmick accounts and make posts as a gimmick, as they are not funny. Please do not post crap asking us to vote for you on some website, give you referrals for free iPods / flatscreens / spare tires, or any other semi-spam things.
Forum Fuckery: Don't **** up the forums or any user on the forums. If you post a malicious link (any URL with spyware or code designed to annoy people) you will be banned. Do not vote spam a thread with your friends because you don't like the person who posted it; this makes the voting feature useless. Do not make plans to annoy / destroy other forums.
Stay On Target: Try to use the appropriate thread tag for your post. This helps people find your thread and makes the forums more user friendly. Do not use the mod-only tags or you will be autobanned by the server.
Contained Conflict: Keep all flamewars and other arguments in their appropriate forums (FYAD, YCS, etc).
Respect the Mods and Writers: The moderators are here to keep the forums safe, sane, and secure. If they ask you to do something, please do it. Please do not harass or intentionally annoy the mods or insult the front page writers. If you do not like the mods or the moderation, feel free to not post here.
Harass and Sass: If somebody is harassing you on the forums then discuss it with them over PM or email before contacting a mod about it. Flames and insults do not constitute harassment. Please do not post others' personal information (phone number, addresses, emails, etc.). Try to stay out of other peoples' personal lives as well. Keep in mind there's a good distinction between the Internet and real life.
Account Ability: Only one person may use a forum account. Account sharing is a bannable offense, so please keep your password secure.
Crazy Catchall: Please do not try to cleverly circumvent some rule listed here. These rules are general guidelines and are very flexible.
FYAD Freedoms: You cannot post illegal material, harass others by posting their personal information or nude photos, spam thread subject lines to break the forum tables, harass any admins or mods, or start forum invasions in FYAD.
I Hate Speech: Offensive terms such as "fa\*\*ot" or "******" may or may not be bannable based on context of the sentence. If they were meant as humor with absolutely no offensive slurs meant, the user may not be banned or probated. This rule is completely, 100% subjective and is based on the mod reading the post at the time. Use at your own peril.

Make it 20 bucks and you cut out all the trash
wtf is "threadshitting" :lmao:
I am a proponent of 6hr/short term bans, research has suggested this is a more effective way to shape behavior.
EI pushing for some consistency
Unfortunately 6hrs doesn't always give enough time for alcohol to leave the poster's system. Or for them to get over a big betting loss. It seems those 2 reasons are why many posters all of a sudden start going haywire on the forum. And they don't just do it in one thread - they tend to take it across multiple ones which becomes a headache for Mods ie chasing down their posts, editing/deleting, receiving 10+ reports on the same post x 5, responding to PMs about the poster etc.Quote:
