Yeah, maybe she already had points.Too many points, even if it's just for profanity, can result in a ban, though.
60 points - 10 day ban
80 points - 1 month ban
100 points - Permanent ban

Negative. Said poster informed me the last time they'd recieved points was from two years prior. They would've expired by now, per the guideines.Yeah, maybe she already had points.![]()
I can't tell you the amount of times I've cursed, but it's always been filtered. & Like Jenny said, Hazzi's been here long enough to know not to mess with the filter.
I always thought points expired thoughLike I have 0 points in one infraction, & 10 in the other. They're both expired. So if in the next 6 months I got random 10 point infractions, I could be banned for 10 days?

Jenny, I would like to see that cleared up as well.

I think I may E-mail Pete to ask for a clarrification
Think that's fair enough for us to ask![]()
Lol, same Sonya. I've been really close to getting banned before, but they eventually expired and now I have no points.No. I've received my fair share of points in the 5 years I've been posting. If having 100 points accumulated means automatic ban, whether they expired or not, I would've been banned a long time ago.
But we have! And we haven't gotten any explanation! If the e-mails had been answered, this thread wouldn't have been needed!

When were these E-Mails sent out Umm... I think that I saw this person the Boards yesterday so Pete may just be away from his computer for a little while....
Have you E-Mailed all the webmasters?
Today, this morning actually. This ALL started this morning.
I never come in this subforum (obviously, I'm not a teen), but the thread title interested me from the main forum.
I have found in many cases the "rules" are more like "guidelines" then actual rules and the owners tend to turn a blind eye on things for certain people or subjects, but then hold to the direct letter of the rule on others.
I do not know the circumstances involved in the situation, but I will agree with others that the forum is very wishy-washy on this.
