It's that time again...
Here it is, roughly one year later, and I have found myself issuing a second one-day temporary ban, this one to PunkMaister. Accordingly, now is a good time to open up the topic of reviewing the enforcement policy.
I have not implemented any of the suggestions made after our last temporary ban, such as a warning meter or thread. Do you think that might have prevented this incident?

I did not PM him any of his warnings; they were all just public.Feldercarb wrote:Not in this case. He seemed pretty hell bent on continuing his behavior which seems to have been pretty consistent since he signed up. Did you PM him his warnings as well?
He may have thought you where just making idle threats otherwise.

Probably somewhere up in the three digit range counting spambots from before I installed a strong captcha system, and possibly a couple humans who were acting like spambots, but I wasn't counting those, just people who have made actual posts saying something.Mike DiCenso wrote:Indeed. How many actual permanent bans have there been in all of the forum's history, especially given the tendency for certain folks to show up here to stir up trouble, and not debate.

That said, PunkMaister's temporary ban is now over, so he may have something to say himself on the matter.

Well yes, I remember the spambots plague we suffered through almost three years ago, but I don't count that towards actually banning real flesh and blood members who came over here and got themselves banned for doing stupid things.Jedi Master Spock wrote: Probably somewhere up in the three digit range counting spambots from before I installed a strong captcha system, and possibly a couple humans who were acting like spambots, but I wasn't counting those, just people who have made actual posts saying something.

Erm, do you mean SDN bothered making a subforum which main topic is this forum?

In SDN's case it won't be hard, since they apparently have a whole section of their forum dedicated to it.
Wait. THREE YEARS AGO??Mike DiCenso wrote:Well yes, I remember the spambots plague we suffered through almost three years ago, but I don't count that towards actually banning real flesh and blood members who came over here and got themselves banned for doing stupid things.Jedi Master Spock wrote: Probably somewhere up in the three digit range counting spambots from before I installed a strong captcha system, and possibly a couple humans who were acting like spambots, but I wasn't counting those, just people who have made actual posts saying something.

This must explain the gray hairs.

SDN doesn't have a dedicated sub forum to discuss SFJ, that usually happens in SWvsST on the odd occasion someone has something to discuss.Mr. Oragahn wrote:

Parting Shots is actually so that banned members can see why they where banned.
