Most sites use the infraction points to lead up to bans. Like at GMI, a trolling infraction = 10 points. Gain 20 points and the system automatically bans you.

I'm glad C5 doesn't have that.

Not all mods enforce this consistently. I guess it depends on who you tick off.

Well, ever since the purple dildo became ok...I think they've just given you a pass.

Example:
GTAHAVIT: Look at this filthy post where SSooch is posting his technique for buffing the hood with both of his bare butt-cheeks! It even has a picture!! What should I do?
CamaroSpike: That's just SSooch being SSooch. He's like Cliff Claven in Cheers. We endure, and it's good entertainment.
GTAHAVIT: Ah...I understand now!

Depends on the site. Camaro5 uses a four strike policy so I doubt the point values matter here. If you screw up four times, you're done.

It's harder to ban people at GMI because you have to wait for them to accumulate points, and some folks are crafty enough to behave until their points have expired, then they go back to being PITAs again. We had a Ford troll who lasted over a year because of that before we finally were able to kick him, but what the administration wants, the administration gets.

yes and no. depending on the time frame and what the points/infractions were for. For instance, if you are infracted for vulgar language and you just don post for a period of time and your infraction expires, then you come back and start up again, that will be taken into account of your next infraction.

now, for some members that have been here for years, say they get an infraction in march of 2008 for bashing another member or whatever, then yesterday I infract them for trolling or being disrespectful, I may or may not add in an infraction from 3 years ago into the punishment. Just depends on their history on here, their post history, their infraction history, etc. I dont know how many times a day I go thru pages upon pages of members' previous posts to see if there is a "pattern to the madness".



another thing to keep in mind is that a lot of us mods try to prevent infractions from happening in the first place by posting in threads for everyone to "keep on topic" or "stay civil" etc. and we will send pm's to members to guide them back from the edge of going overboard.

Honestly, I hate giving infractions, its a PITA to have to explain to someone why they are being punished when all they have to do is go to the top of every subforum and the rules are listed there for everyone to read.

yes and no. we could crack down on everyone and hand out infractions all day long (sometimes we already do). The big difference is that a lot of times, a member may have a couple, spread out infractions and they go overboard in a very heated thread and may or may not get the next level of punishment due to the fact that its easy to get swept away in the mix of things.

I can't explain every possible situation where a mod has had to decide to give a pm warning, infract, or ban. there's too many variables, and yes, the particular mod that catches it does have a part to play. but, we all review each others' "work" and discuss things. and 99 times out of a hundred, when a member is banned, we've been watching them for a while.
