Nailed To A Tree: The Warning & Ban Log

[stu neville]

This thread shows any posters that are on warnings, at which stage, and a brief description of the reason. If and when a warning elapses, or is rescinded, it will be removed from this thread.

A full description of the four stages can be found on the Revised Warning Thread.

 

[stu neville]

First Warnings

First Warnings last three months from the date of issue.

 

[stu neville]

Second Warnings

Second warnings last six months.

 

[stu neville]

Final Warning

Final warnings are indefinite, and further transgressions result in a ban.

Bannings

(nb - spammers aren't listed, just banned automatically)

 

[stu neville]

garrick92 is on a final warning for borderline trolling.

 

[stu neville]

As this board has an in-built warning system, we are adopting it from now on. The are now four stages - first warning, which will remain current for three months. Second warning, which will last six months (and will automatically supersede the first one - no remission for time already served), and a Final Warning, which is indefinite (though we may review it if a poster behaves for a long while.)

Any breach of a final warning will result in the fourth stage - an immediate ban without further discussion. In addition, spammers will from now on be banned without announcement (we get a lot of them.)

Notice of warnings/bannings will continue to be posted on the current warnings thread.

You called me a junkie on another thread that had nothing to do with you. Quit stalking me please.

And you are still calling names. Please stop.

As a mod I can't ignore your posts. But stalking a mod is not a good idea.

 

[ramonmercado]

I have deleted a trolling comment by tasty intestines. Any further off topic comments by him will result in a warning.

Mods do not have to tolerate stalkers.

 

[ramonmercado]

Tasty Intestines has received a Green Warning. Despite the warning above he has continued to troll.

 

[ramonmercado]

tasty intestines has received a Green Warning for stalking and trolling.

 

[ramonmercado]

Tasty Intestines has received a Green Warning. Despite the warning above he has continued to troll.

tastyintestines says he hadn't read the prior warning before he posted, so the green warning is withdrawn.

[Moooksta]

1st warning for JimELucier expiring after 3 months.

Redirection to his own website and plugging of two books.

 

[stu neville]

Stuart Certain has been banned, for trolling.

 

[stu neville]

..and his sock puppet, Carmilla K, has also been banned, for being a sock puppet of a banned member.

 

[Yithian]

First warning for Igor Popov for repeatedly deleting swathes of his own thread, rendering the entire thing even more unintelligible than it already was.

That despite a request to cease.

 

[Yithian]

A green warning for drbates for intemperate posting.
[Expires in three months]

 

[Yithian]

An orange warning for drbates for posting multiple vexatious threads of complaint.
[Expires in six months]

n.b. In the interest of fairness, I shall not be moderating any future infractions or alleged infractions by this user; they will be referred to another moderator for adjudication.

 

[stu neville]

Following discussion with the editor, it has been decided that drbates and the FTMB will now part company on a permanent basis. This follows many complaints from other board members, to both the mod team and the editor himself. As a result, and following drbates' forthright cancellation of his subscription, we are pleased to reciprocate by removing him from the FT Message board with immediate effect. As it clearly caused him so much anguish, we feel we have done him a service by banning him permanently, and besides we owe him nothing at all.

No, please don't thank us, drbates. It's our pleasure.

 

[Yithian]

Igor Popov has been banned for repeated violations and (ultimately) a refusal to discuss said violations with us.

Any and all attempts at communication were met with the same gibberish he plastered over the board and our patience eventually ran out.

 

[Yithian]

New member Josip banned for having some odd preoccupation with suicide/self-harm.
Hope you find a place better suited to your hobby!

Nice avatar: shame nobody got to see it.

 

[Yithian]

Megadeth receives a Green Warning for a party political post with no relevant content of the Grenfell Fire thread.

We're not joking about this one.

Back-ski and now splat-ski.

Old Master Q receives a Green Warning for exploding about cyclists!?

 

[stu neville]

YHWH Allah has left the building on a permanent basis, for posting gibberish and not engaging when asked to cease and desist.

Just to add: we really did try, but all our messages came back with the same spam that he posts on the board--and lots of random letter 'K's.

 

[Yithian]

The following accounts have been banned for sock puppetry and wasting everybody's time with fiction.

@danr is sin-binned for twenty-four hours to give me the opportunity to tidy up his mess without receiving further PMs from him.
