    Default Banned Members

    As you will all have noticed, there have been a few members banned in somewhat controversial circumstances in the past couple of months – Rover, Dirty Harry, Navillus04 and Alana the specific members I can recall.

    Every time it happens, there is a thread started looking for an explanation, and E-I managers and Moderators are often slated by members who don’t know the full story, and that often adds fuel to the fire.

    Would it be possible to set up a location on the board, as a sticky thread, for an explanation by management as to why any member has been banned and, if said member denies the infraction, their rebuttal should be posted with it? Obviously, it would be best if no other members were allowed to post on this thread, so that the thread remains solely for information purposes.

    At least then, when people want to discuss the pros and cons of a ban, they are more aware of the facts when they do so.

    Good idea Forrest, it would enlighten members as to why a member was banned, although the inquest threads that follow are very entertaining, they show you who your friends are. But something on those lines that you suggest could save a lot of grief.

    I think Forrest idea is a good one- an even better one would be if everyone could just stop getting banned and behave. (I say this as someone who is quite vocal and does get told off) I have never seen a forum where so many people have been banned. It is not a good reflection on any of us as adults.

    That is a good idea Forrest.Even though there would be objections from some people to doing that,anything would be better than all the accusations and counter accusations that happen on these boards at times like this.
    Anyway over to EI management re.implementing this.

    Unfortunately Lucy as you have seen for yourself there are quite a few members here who dont behave like adults and just throw their toys out of the pram when they dont get their own way.

    In most cases the bans etc are obvious and its because people break the rules.

    In situations with some, its a private issue between the users and EI and its not appropriate for privacy reasons to explain why.

    In the Nav / Alana situation you have been told why they were banned, there is nothing else more to say.

    I would not support this 'board of banned users' whatseover. It serves no purpose.

    true.. but remember, this forum isnt a forum for like minded people to spoking about model cars, or playing cards. its a forum for like minded peeps to be talking about whoo-kers. i for one, like to flirt with the law, sometimes i get my knuckles rapped, as can be seen by the fact that these days, i dont talk about my penchant for ejaculating streams of jism into female faces. i for one, have learned my lesson, and will NEVER flout the rules on this forum. no siree, no more bukkake type japery for me, never will i EVER again, mention how i do liking to lose the run of myself, and stamp my toothpaste tube all over my current squeezes face, before ganning to work in the morning. NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Default Kind of agree with wellhung..but..

    I know that. And I agree that there is a time and a place for all. But this board needs to be user friendly for us all. Newbies are excluded, women are definitely being excluded and it isn't a forum for ten of us. I personally have no problem standing up for what I believe, however there is a decorum that should be observed. Language could and should be chosen carefully. We have to show respect for the moderators-this is their job, our hobby. There also must be basic respect for each other. Escort or not, I am a human being first and foremost. As are all of you.
