Due to the number of arguments, flame wars, and insults that have been appearing on the Suggestions Board, the Staff are introducing a new 3-strike ban
system.
If a user posts an inappropriate comment of any kind, they receive a strike, which will be noted in this thread, one person to a post.
Strikes last 10 days each, so if the user flames three times in ten days, they recieve a one-month ban.
After the ban, the user is on probation, effectively having two strikes; another mean post, and they will receive another one-month ban.
Also, if the user is constantly obtaining and losing strikes, a note will be made, and they will also recieve a ban.
Several members have more than earned bans, however since we are just introducing the system now, they will instead be put on probation to give them a chance to shape up.
