BANNED title...

Mad_Cactuar · #1 27th August 2005, 04:00 AM

what happens if a BANNED user tries to post in a forum? If the person changes his/her name but registers in AHS again, would that person be able to post? I noticed a user -Unimatrix Prime- got banned, whats the consequences?

that's confused me too...[unless you're not confused..then it's just me..]

When a user is banned, they do not have access to the forum (besides the general ones like Ayu chat and Ayu News), and they do not have the access to post.
I have first-hand knowledge of this, so trust me.

ok... pickle cookies, you know about that

? haha.. thanks

Yes, I have been one of the few people who have been banned from the forum. Though for me, it was only a week. For someone like Unimatrix Prime, it's permanent.

Mad_Cactuar · #7 27th August 2005, 05:13 AM

PickleCookies · #8 27th August 2005, 05:14 AM

He was belligerent, but I'm not going to give the details since it's not my place to say.

MariachiGurl2005 · #9 27th August 2005, 05:15 AM

i guess that' no one's place to explain this

PickleCookies · #10 27th August 2005, 05:24 AM

Ask the staff, they might be able to give more details.

Mad_Cactuar · #12 27th August 2005, 06:38 AM

If a banned person re-registers under a different name that account will also be banned.

but will i get banned if i use a swear word or start a hate thread? or will i just get a warning?

These are the froum rules: http://www.ahsforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=33393

They clearly outine why someone can be banned. In the two cases where people (read: people, not users) have been permanently banned the action was the absolute last resort. Both people were banned for behavior that occured over the period of more than a year. Both received multiple warnings telling them to the bad behavior, but they did not comply and were eventually banned after much deliberation. Mad_Cauter and people new to this forum: this explaination should be sufficient for you. All others: The specifics of this have been convered months ago and WILL NOT be covered again. I'm sure that ALL parties concerned would rather move on from it. I certainly know that I do.

No one will be banned for no reason, or without warning. If someone is on the edge of being banned, they WILL be aware of the situation, because in most cases if it's even possible to ban them they would have been warned, usually over many months.

Major incidences, such as posting pornography warrant a temp ban without prior warning. Hacking the forum will result in an automatic permanent ban without warning. No one was recieved a permanent ban without warning to date.

To explain this further:

There are certain forums here at AHS that are open to all users, whether they are registered or not. The dowloads forums and the board forums are examples of the ones that aren't viewable to guests/users that aren't logged in. So when a person is banned, they can no longer log in to access those forums or to post, edit, delete, etc. If you log out you can see that there are less forums displayed than when you are logged in.

PickleCookies · #18 28th August 2005, 01:54 AM

Warnings and punishments, including bannings, are given confidentially. The Staff consider such things as taking place between them and the member involved, and will never publicize them. The only way you could know is if that person chose to tell other members.
