In case you have been wondering how Bans are given, lifted, etc... We use a Point system called Infractions.

Doing something wrong will likely give you an Infraction from a Mod or Admin. This would include anything from starting a huge flame war to sending death threats to users thru PM. Each user is allowed 5 points, and receiving an Infraction will earn you 1 point. When you get to 5 you are auto-banned for a set period of time.

Depending on what you did will determine how many points you get. Roughly:

Repeated Spamming: 1 point
Repeated Flaming: 1 point
Bashing other sites: 2 points+
Death Threats thru PM = 2-3 point
Spamvertising = 3+ points
Anything worse than that = Ban

I'm alright with some spam or some flaming. What shouldnt happen is for it to become a repeated problem. By "acceptable" spam (if there is such a thing) would look something like this:

Flaming is okay too as long as its not to verbally abusive. Flaming Moderators is always a bad idea.

The actual points received is completely up to the discretion of the Mod/Admin that sent them to you. The above list is not a garauntee that you have received to few/many points.

Of course if you dont agree with a given point, you can always ask an admin for clarification.
