Anna23 Banned?

[Patricia]

I'll explain what happened here now.

Anna posted an ad which broke duo advertising rule. Another escort complained. Westie deleted ad. Anna posted ad again. Westside deleted ad. Anna posted ad again. Westside deleted ad and this time put Anna on 1 week ban. I gather he felt she would keep putting it back up all night unless he banned her. Westside can correct me if any of this is wrong, but that is what happened I think.

I came along. I noticed a problem. Anna had put up thread in private forum asking why her ad had been deleted. From that you could say she may not have even realised her ad broke any rule. We have an infractions system (3 infractions in 30 days automatically equals a 1 week ban) and in my mind the best way of handling this would have been for Westie to give her an infraction explaining why it was given, then she'd have known what the problem was. If she had then posted the ad again, another infraction could have been given etc until automatic ban was applied.

I asked Westie about this and he thought he had given Anna an infraction, but he hadn't, so it seems he'd not clicked submit properly or there had been a tech glitch or similar because the infraction hadn't been issued.

In the circumstances I felt Anna should be unbanned as infractions system is best way to deal with these issues rather than issuing a manual ban. So she was unbanned. Westside was however not acting with any malice here. He was trying to do right thing I believe.
