How Suspensions will work this weekend

[AB Editor]

Afternoon all,

I've noticed the nastiness has crept back into ChatterBank.

I'd prefer it if we kept it to medium strength banter and level 4 "cut & thrust" please. Exceeding these limitations (or breaking the rules) will have you suspended.

While usually a suspension lasts a few days, typically a weekend, we're applying a new rule for this weekend, which, if it works, may remain for the long term.

Suspensions which take place this weekend will be reviewed on Monday by the editorial team. Suspensions, at this point, may be lifted. Those which are not (i.e. the suspensions are completely vaild, as most of them will be) with continue until the following monday.

At that point the suspension will be lifted - unless the user has returned with a new/other username or caused trouble in other ways (for example, sending a snarky email to us). If a suspended user causes trouble suspension will roll on for another week - or a ban will be put in place and the user will be bannished to the Swamp Of Unpleasent Odours.

Okay, you have been warned! Enjoy your weekend!

Good afternoon Ed....I made it through the weekend without being hung. Only because I was fearful to post a single word for fear of being suspended for a second time; even if only for a few hours until you were back on duty to reverse any unfair decision taken on your behalf.

In fact, I am now endeavouring to refrain from expressing my personal opinions within the columns of AB because I feel that you have at least one Moderator who is immoderate in their moderation.

Oops.....Perhaps I have now expressed a personal opinion which qualifies me for a suspension; or even a total beheading.

Ron.

I would have thought an immoderate moderater would be de-moderated.

Someone would have posted a juicy link by now if there was one I reckon craft...

[China Doll]

[jackthehat]

I must admit that I'm with B00 on the 'toe-nail' front...............<bleeeaarrrggghhhh>

[B00]

i dont actually mind toe nails themselves Jack, it was the thread about toenails dropping off, did you see it? It was revolting and i very nearly saw my breakfast, lunch dinner AND supper reading it. Telling you, it was the stuff of nightmares that thread.

[vivandorron]

Hi B00...Perhaps I have now have lost the thread of things.

I don't know what Dotty posted so do not know if she were referring to Moderators as Turds or had given a juicy link to to such a person.:-)
