Feet don't fail me now.
Or as the monkey who was terrified of zebras said when he saw a herd of them: "YIPES STRIPES"!!
That actually is in the works. We will have 2 categories as some people assume a 7, 30, or 90 day ban is permanent....and react accordingly.... There will be "temporary suspension" as a separate category, then "banned".

It's just a difference in philosophy, I suppose. If someone does something publicly which is worthy of a reprimand, then I see nothing wrong with a public reprimand, for the reasons I've previously stated.
I have no idea why the admin team would speak on it publicly, seeing how rule #11 doesn't allow it. I never said they should. I simply offered up my opinion on the rule in general, and that maybe it needs to be rethinked with regard to public reprimands. Don't forget that I said I agree for the most part about the discussing of bans. I simply think that if someone does something in public worthy of a reprimand, then they deserve to be publicly reprimanded, so as to make crystal clear what the problem was, not to humiliate them in public.
As for RLENT whining, you couldn't be more wrong. You might want to actually discuss this with him, rather than continue to assume stuff.

Actually, "what it sounded like" is an interpretation, and you made that interpretation based upon my words alone, and then assumed RLENT was whining. It's an incorrect assumption. Or, if you prefer, it's an incorrect "sounding" and you simply wrongly heard the words that I typed.

You know.....the rest of us are talking about banning in general at this point.....YOU'RE the only one that keeps bringing Rlent into the conversation which leads me to this question.....Are you "pushing your luck" to see if you'll be reprimanded for violation of rule #11??
I bring him into the conversation because you're the one raggin' on him about whining.
I miss Rlent so much
*SIGH* I though we were going to let this drop.
OK, get back on topic now and not another word about any banned members currently banned or banned in the past or any other members you think are going to be banned in the future. In other words, not another mention of ANY user's name and banning/banned. Back on topic. Start a new topic. Go count your lugnuts. Whatever. Just no more talk about banned members as I'm sick of the flooding inboxes.

We are. Lets move on folks.

Dale, not to continue this discussion but I have to respond.
My point is not to even put anything under the user's name, leave it alone in order not to spur these off topic or new threads about the person who is banned. It eliminates most of the attention getting issue with others who just simply think they walked away.
Knowing the base software used for EO, it isn't difficult for someone with simple programming skills to make the change.
That's all, thanks for stopping by ... got to go now....
Can a member who is in time out send or receive pm's? If not, that's as good a reason as any to show their status.
