he is referring to ban from this website.

and guess what. we can ban anyone for any reason we so desire. if i wanted to, i could ban you because let's say i dont like user names that have the word "rum" in it.

however, we don't ban people for no reason on this site. nor do we ban anyone just because someone complains about someone. we get the opinions of all the mods/admins when banning a member permanently, that way the view is as impartial as possible.

GirlRacer is an unknown quantity at this point
plus - if you start banning people just for fun - you'll get a bad rep with other websites and stuff.

one thing. i hate banning drama. it's one of the worse drama in any forum. IMO.

if possible, please deal with it with the mods trough PMs...

it's not neccessary to let other user to see ur matter...

sorry for the harsh word.

this site has a good impartialness when it comes to ruling, compared to other sites. for one thing, most surfers that join forums just to start **** don't stick around for long anyway. Banning just helps them to move on faster.

But you still have your members that hijack threads, post totally unrelated things, and think they are king of the internet because they just made fun of someone.

"hey stupid! it's not THEYRE it THEIR!!! hahahaa you got owned!" gee... you're cool

it's never a dull day on the internet

i don't know the dilly on your friend, but that was just my general opinion of the site. I guess if you had to pay to be able to register and join this site, and you are banned before your membership has expired, then you are entitled to get your money back... or something

mods here are koo. their not like the admins like in counterstrike.. ******* ban u cause you owned them bad and they got embarassed on the net. damn geeks lol


as for getting banned from a website, it can happen suddenly. im sure any mod here can ban if they just feel like it. but then, they SHOULD have a good reason to state why they did. cause there are admins that abuse there 'control' and hopefully get caught once their reported to the webmaster/owner

if its a good reason, why can't mods just state what it was, instead of something vague or sometimes just be like what's done is done and dont' talk about it?
i don't see why not if its a good reason.

Because we do searches on individuals, we research their present and past posts and link it to what the newest "drama" is on the site. We all have a say in whether someone gets banned and genearlly most of our reasons are not well received by others. They think we ban just because we can and not for valid reasons. Our job is to keep this site running smoothly and to ensure that everyone can be happy here. We have to think about the person on the other side of the monitor who may be getting bashed by 10 people on the site. Usually the valid reason is that the person who was banned, was banned because he/she was being 1) rude, 2) lude, or 3) had little respect for others and/or the mods.

I have been here longer than most people on this site. I the beginning there were few bannings, but as sites gets larger there is more controversy and "drama" That is just the nature of human socialization. HEre we have the power to remove that crap, whereas in real life you don't. If we didn't, this site would be full of spammers, trolls, and people who don't give a **** about anyone.
