Mods only - reason so and so was banned

Hard to keep track these days, so seeing how busy the mod volunteers are, thought I'd help out a bit. Here's a simple template and thread to use solely for the sin bins.

Are you an ambulance chaser? Follow the accidents and watch the blood?

Users that get a full or temporary ban are told.

If you like I can show you to.

Grow up.

When did "Catch Of The Day" or "Pinky & The Killers" post outside of the wild west?

I try and help and this is the response I get? It wouldn't be an issue if the inconsistency wasn't so blatant. Transparency isn't too much to ask is it?

Will you please get over what ever issue you have. Go report me to some lawyer or gov department, or something. Just get over it. Your snipping, ridiculing & attempts at trapping is tiring.

So you lost your original account. I'm sad for you. I agree that it would be very annoying, but there is nothing that can be done.

If it's addressed to you, it's pretty hard not to read it once you've read it.

Some of the rules are solid, some are vague but it comes down to following the Admins direction. Promote football. http://www.footballnews.com.au/forum/vi ... 6&start=30

Having people hijack threads, belittle other users, use multiple accounts for their own enjoyment, bait users, etc. is not helping grow the game or the forum. If users want to do such things, that's fine. Just use the correct format - create their own thread or keep it in the Wild West.

Very few people are banned, and those that are only receive short bans. More than 97% of users are not banned.

Users do use the report function, to report threads, posts & users. Some Mods act, some don't.

Certainly sounds that way, thanks to an unnamed person for the heads up on this. never would have found this without directions.

Then again, he could claim that a generic reason was good enough without being specific.
