Thanks for that suggestion Fountainheader, it is actually a point that we have raised ourselves in the Support Forum many times -- at the moment, we are limited by the software (temp and permanent ban both show as "BANNED"), however, as GTO mentioned we are looking into making this infraction and ban system clearer.

Is it the basis of an infraction.
Have gone thru this and hence the question.
As far as I remember I did not use the word directly in my reply.
It was only in the quoted part. |
Bblost,
This would ofcourse go on a case to case basis, but i can give you an overview:
Say, you post an
external quote or article on the forum [in quotes] and it breaks the forum rules - you
will be held responsible for the content you are bringing to the forum. (This is similar to posting an inappropriate joke or a joke with foul language).
If you quote a post with foul language (though its better not to!) and reply in a civil manner - in tune with all our rules, you will
not be held responsible for the content of the quote.

Generally, the progression is
warning(s) => infraction(s) => temp ban(s) => permanent ban.
Ofcourse, we can leapfrog a stage(s) in this progression depending on the severity of the incidents, and a few other factors.
For eg. if a member's first post is a link to an adult website - they will probably be banned right away.

Another good suggestion, but once again johnda, making this a reality is only being limited by our software. We will look into it.
In the meanwhile, some browsers (eg. opera) show upload progress too in the status bar. So, if you're uploading a 600kb image, you will see the progress count up from 0kb to 600kb.

Benbsb29,
Was it you who raised this same issue in this thread, sometime in the last 2 months?
If you have experienced this when uploading - could you please email me the pictures - and we'll try and pinpoint the issue.
Thanks guys - keep the
suggestions coming.
