carlt Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 But who has been stealing my warnings? I believe that, if you're good for long enough, your warn level drops back to zero. I'm not sure, though, as I've never had a warn level over 0% . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GSer Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 So what's worth what then, a racial remark 25% perhaps, a swear word 5%, dissing a Mod 99%? Is there a fixed 'price list'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomsk Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 So what's worth what then, a racial remark 25% perhaps, a swear word 5%, dissing a Mod 99%? Is there a fixed 'price list'? I think it's more a' la carte than prix fixe..... Swearing usually attracts a mild rebuke, dissing of Mods seem to be gaining in popularity recently and I'm sure legislation is being drafted as we speak in order to deal with this unacceptable trend. Racial remarks are tolerated within reason ie 'Begger orf ya Water Pikey and take yer Stowage with ya!' may be taken in good spirit when used between confirmed Water Pikeys, but would be met with a stern request to 'Belay that Greeting' otherwise.

I'm not sure, though, as I've never had a warn level over 0% . Me neither. Didn't stop the mods claiming that I had been warned when they decided to block my access for a week. Which reminds me..... Would any of the moderators care to explain why I was blocked, and why they didn't follow their own rules when doing so, and why, having said that I could appeal by e-mail, they ignored every single e-mail that I sent?

Would any of the moderators care to explain why I was blocked, and why they didn't follow their own rules when doing so, and why, having said that I could appeal by e-mail, they ignored every single e-mail that I sent? I suspect because they are guidelines not rules, and the mods have the ability to some extent to make the rules up as they go along. I too have never had a warn level higher than 0%, but as the gauge has five bars I assumed it was 20% stages. FWIW Dave, your stance has resulted in a considerable decrease in the annoying behaviour that was going on prior to this, while still full blooded, the forum seems to have lost a lot of the deliberate winding up/insults etc. The forum is better for that.

tomsk Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 As an accredited 'Bad Bwoy', I can confirm that it's usually a three strikes and your out policy, I'm not sure how that works with 5 'Blocks' of Badness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nine of Hearts Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Dont know because my 67% of badness still accounts for 4 bars Because there doesn't need to be a sixth block? Because when you light the sixth block*, you're banned, and you wouldn't be able to see it anyway? *I think you should get multiball, but my opinion is quite often irrelevant.
