Unfortunately, mods can't ban some folks who so richly deserve it. We're trying to stay on top of the petty squabbles as they crop up. Feel free to PM me with any suggestions.
No need for PM... I'm not shy and what I have to say about this should be said in the light of day.
This website is private property. All private property rights apply. The owner's have already instituted a list of rules that those who join/post on/in this private property have agreed to abide by simply by joining/posting.
My suggestion? It is time the owners and their representatives start applying the rules to everyone... and apply those rules in a uniform manner... and yes, that includes me when I get annoyed and start posting crap...
I don't care how it is done... what format of warnings/how many warnings/how many deleted postings/what it takes to qualify for being banned/if temporary bans are used as a "jerk on the leash"/what is necessary to earn a permanent ban... is used as long as it is used in a dispassionate manner fairly applied to all. Yes, even to me.
I also don't care how much extra work that means for the owners/mods... this is their private property/area of responsibility. Deal with it.
