So far we have not seen any behaviour that deserves direct intervention by the moderators (or administrators) – and I hope it will stay that way. Alas, as we will grow larger (and we will *grin*), there may arise situations that will require arbitration by the "authorities" *amused* - up to severe measures.

I truly hope that we will never need use the following and it will be just a waste of my precious time and just lay here, forgotten and unneeded. However, I prefer to be crystal clear with all, and better settle this now than later, before we grow larger – so that the future offenders (again, hopefully no such will be) would be forewarned.

All written down regards all ranks and levels of authority on this forum (though I wonder who will be banning the admins – especially Proxima? *lol*).

Let Peace be maintained.


These are the measures we will take, if forced to:

Rule of thumb I:
1 warning = purely a warning (you know - happens with everyone, but be careful from now on...)
2 warnings = 1 day suspension
3 warnings = 1 week suspension
4 warnings = 1 month suspension
Suspensions administrated from the point some mod/admin has noticed the cause for it, warned you and notified the rest of the staff
5 warnings = ban
Banning will be decided by the admins, but just so you know…

Rule of thumb II:
3 months of proper behaviour = -1 warning
I hope I will not see a smart-ass, who will try using it as a "second-third-fourth-…-nth chance" option… *stern look*

You do: FDR 4
We do: Upon receiving complaint/s from some member that you are harassing him/her, we will contact you, inquire into the cause and kindly ask you to refrain from such behaviour in the future. If you do not stop or we receive complaints against you again, you will be issued a formal warning (check the little scale beneath your details when posting) and a message to stop such behaviour entirely – even by ignoring the member you are mad at/have been harassing. If we hear about further violations of this rule from you, you will be banned – no explanations, since you were warned. We take transgression of this rule as a threat to the peace of the forum and will act accordingly.

You do: FDR 5.
We do: If we spot such behaviour, we ban you. End of discussion.

You do: Violating FDR 6.
We do: Moderators will settle this and you will be asked to behave. Continuous violation will get you a warning.

You do: Linking to offensive/illegal sites (as per FDR 7).
We do: Erase the content and issue you a warning.

You do: Being an "abusive poster" (Clarification to FDR 10)
We do: It is indeed a fine line, when dealing with people with strong views, ideas and beliefs - and we do not want to see it crossed. Behave yourselves! You are grown ups (more or less). Failure to do so will get you a warning. Continuous violation will get you banned. We take transgression of this rule as a threat to the peace of the forum and will act accordingly.

You do: FDR 11
We do: Moderators will settle this and you will be asked to behave. The topic may be closed, improper posts may be deleted and you will get a warning. We take transgression of this rule as a threat to the peace of the forum and will act accordingly.

You do: FDR 12
We do: You will be asked to stop doing so. Continuous violation will get you a warning.

You do: FDR 13
We do: The content will be erased. Continuous transgressions will get you a warning.


We will be adding according to need and our twisted imagination.

Although guilty of doing it myself, I think we should maybe edit posts that contain any form of jokes towards religion that could create misconceptions and negative vibes from serious religious members? Example - Moses and Noah smoking dope.

Please respond Proxima?

Yes, I can see how it could be seen as offensive if taken up wrongly, I myself been guilty of posting such a topic before thinking it over.

In future when something similar happens again, the post should be edited and the member notified about the edited post. Members should make their intentions clear, or stating that they mean no offense. Many posts is a copy and paste from different sites, and members should mention that as well (so that the source of content could be established)
