Banning System

For violating the rules, bannings will follow these guidelines. Note that the rules here are subject to change. Please remember that we are not a court, and that the guidelines below are precisely that: guidelines to give you a broad idea of what to expect if you break these rules. If you're a good user who posts 1 link to a forum that you own, you probably won't get banned for a month. If you make 100 posts advertising your forum, then you'll be banned for far longer.

Temp Bans:

- 1 day for spamming
- 3 days for harassing/trolling/flaming mods &/or regular members
- 5 days for posting/discussing illegal subjects (crime, drugs, hacking, scams, etc)
- 1 month for advertising
- 4 months for attempting to scam people out of their user info, whether via attempting to take their password or posting a cookie stealing link or site.

Permanent

- Hacking of any sort
- Repeated violations of any of the above rules
- Linking to pornographic material, nudity or obscene images

Removal of the Forum

- If users are consistently breaking the rules and harassing moderators, the forum will be shut down.

Changes to the Current System

None, really. I can't blame anyone for spam, nor I have to power to go around and close threads because there's no postcount, let's just try to keep the special characters and all that to a minimum.

Some thread humor (like copy pasta) will be allowed, but I don't know I don't have a standard in case things go too stupid. I'll let youguys know before hand.
