Public name and shame is good

it helps others see the mistakes they may make

granted we are all meant to read the rules but sometimes people dont and if they see this thread they instantly either know about nht and our stance or or goto the rules thread

Yes I suppose this does make sense. However, when I come to this forum I'm hoping to see hookah related topics. Instead I have to filter through a bunch of threads about someone getting banned for not knowing the rules.
I'm just saying there could be another way to go about this without cluttering up the forum.

My 2 cents.

you dont seem to be filtering through them at all, you did click on this one. besides theres only 4 topics on the first page. its not hard to "filter" through them

Am I the only one that finds it odd that there's a need for a thread each time someone is banned? Or at least, what are the threads doing in this forum? Wouldn't things like this be better suited over in General?


Ya your pretty much the only one that finds these posts odd.

A good point made..when people stop posting..this thread will disappear.


And I liked him too...the hookah smoker in me doesnt always agree with the Admin me either. But we have rules, and we all have to follow them. Besides, you didn't see the pm's he sent to the mod that got him. Bel;ieve me folks, there is ALWAYS soemthing going on behind the scenes. If you will recall, this started with the standard you are an idiot for mentioning that ater all this time 5 day ban..and then the pm's started. So believe me when i say I really wouldn't mind never having to ban someone again. I could actually catch up on reading and answering in actual hookah posts. But it aint gonna happen. huh.gif

im with mush.. ALOT of the time i read someones post and i think "damn why the fuck did you have to say that" then i have to send them a PM telling them what they did wrong and take action (everything you do that is against the rules is logged on your profile).

its not fun to ban people that you like.

I have never found the mods to be unreasonable. Mush himself banned me early on when I accidently posted to a review screen (and yes it was an honest to goodness accident in a weird glitch that vanished my screen and it ended up in reviews for some reason never to be explained). I PM'd Mush, apologized for whatever the hell my computer had done, explained it and he lifted the ban. Why anyone would have tantrums and escalate the issue is beyond me. All it did to me was make me a little more careful about what my system was doing at any given time. Never a bad thing.

The mods on this site are pretty damn good

i made a mistake and apologized via pm, problem solved

the only time things like this happen is when people instead of apologising start being rude and then they should get a perm ban lets be honest the mods do this job for free they dont deserve abuse

ive seen nazi forums and im a member of several, this is FAR from one of those and i cant see that changing

as for temp bans.....beats a perm ban people should suck it up a bit and wait it out come back apologize and forget about it

i personally want to thank the mods on this forum, something they dont get often enough.
