Perfxion 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2005 This place should start a process of temp bannings. It would be like suspended for a week or two to cool things off. Not many people who have been banned here need perma-bans for their retarded actions. But, this could be a happy medium for the mods and the posters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Loss Report post Posted January 20, 2005 We've tried it in specific cases in the past, specifically with Dama. Problem is, he can never figure out exactly what he wants. I think he wanted to be banned and then wanted back in or something, I don't know. The mods have tried encouraging posters to take a break from a thread many times. Sometimes it works and sometimes, it doesn't at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the.weej 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2005 Instead of the OAOAST, I would suggest any possible future temp bannings to be relegated to the SWF folders. It'd be midly entertaining, particularly with people who haven't so much as looked at the folder before. On top of that, it may even increase dismal enrollment!

Dr. Tom 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2005 What exactly is the Whiny Bitches folder -- is it hidden or something?... It's hidden -- and yes, it is called the Gulag now -- from all non-staff normally. However, those who are whiny bitches and deserve some time in the gulag receive a permission mask that makes that the only folder they can see, and it's read-only. The most recent person to be incarcerated for a time was Jason, after his absurd Hitler thread. I made a topic for him, with a nice swastika picture he could enjoy, and a caption of "Seig Heil, you dumb motherfucker," or something like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2005 If I started a Hitler thread, it would end up being a useful thread, but then I'd also have to gather some notes and fuck that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
