just a thought. but instead of permanently banning individuals, would there be a way of temporarily banning an individual to make them understand how close they are to being permanently banned. maybe a 14 or 30 day ban at most.
i understand the card system and think it is more than fair, but maybe instead of the final card use the temp ban option. permanent is a long timeand i dont think some people understand exactley how close they really are or were
again just a thought.

Bans are not given that easy.
Normally if a ban is made, it needs to stay that way.Want my help? Ask here! (not via PM!)

Didn't we try something like this a while back? I think I heard this "penalty box" thing before...

I don't recall this ever being done here at VH, though it has been suggested and discussed a few times. I am with Lordsmurf on this one, Bans are not given out lightly and so when they come they should be permanent. If a user has managed to acquire 4 yellows without learning that his behaviour here needs to change, then a temporary ban is not going to persuade him either.Originally Posted by fmctm1swThere are 10 kinds of people in this world.

Wow !
That would be equivalent to a capital punishment ! Very harsh punishment !

Of course a Mod CAN remove a ban if circumstances dictate, such as it was issued due to an administrative error, but that is very rare indeed and should NOT be the norm.

A ban is only as good as the IP quad.
If you ban too many ip's, you lose legit posters.
Now, if we could all ban everyone in the 152.163.142.xxx quad...

... apart from the auto ban after 5 yellow cards, where a "mere" yellow-card offence causes the banning ... although as bugster points out, if you don't learn after 4 previous chances, well ... you've only got yourself to blame IMO, especially when there is a process in place to get the yellows removed after 30 days.Originally Posted by lordsmurf
BTW, IP bans are frivolous, at best, also ...If in doubt, Google it. -
Really, how about a year and counting... I think you don't know what you 're talking about. This seems to be a very personal thing for mods. Some really forget what beeing a mod means. Look to the left.
