btw ang... maybe you should put a "READ THIS BEFORE CONTINUING TO PA" and put that as a sticky topic in each forum section. they read it first as a warning. if they persist, THEN ban them.. so theres stages... ban account temporarily first, if that doesnt work, delete account, and if that doesnt work, ban IP.. it gives them a chance to learn from their mistakes... but youre the boss so its your call!
most of the time there is no second chances for stupidity, the majority of them almost all have second account they think they can get away with. Secondly i factor in judgements if this person is a contributer or a leecher,simply we dont care for leechers. Saves us alot of time checkin back on them. yes i weight in alot of factors before i ban but people ignorantly disrespect the rules so %90 of the time its an easy decision. we have the rules page in bold big font on the forum main if they can't get accross that then its their own doing but yes we should make some kinda agreement page for that in the near future. they cant go on pa and any other accounts they've made is gone too.
wow... PA is really strict now... kinda feel bad for the sensible bananas... but i guess all the leechers has pushed the mods too far... *sigh*
^ haha and nicely put knoc -lol so ang --> you close all their accounts so they cant come back on, then why dont you make a list of all the ones that are being banned so we can see the 'hall of shame'
don't you mean they shouldn't? lol if we had a hall of shame, then we should quote all the stupid posts they made... like the one which posted 200...199... 198 etc in a section which doesn't increase post count -lol but then again i think it's kinda stupid to have a hall of shame And bbear you have so many ideas... first with the SPAU then the hall of shame...i wonder what comes next. lol
if we made a hall of shame some idiots gonna come back using a proxy and try to prove that hes smart.
nah we're still pretty much the same on the relaxed rules except more idiots are exposing themselves this time around.
oh yeah i didnt think of it like that >.< yeah im full of ideas but too bad the SPAU not happening :( very true and there goes that idea -lol
^^Wey wey, and what's this: http://www.dramasian.com/showthread.php?t=10183&page=11 Anyway, I still think the mods should be more stricter with the board rules as explained in the aformentioned thread by me. I've dealed a lot with spammers before on the boards I was modding and recognize every spam post with ads. (not the same spammers on here who apparently bump up their post counts to become VIP????) Really, although I'm a newbie on here myself I can tell PA is getting more and more folks than let's say 2 years ago? "Old skool boardies" are already asking for actions against the old thread kick uppers, duplicated topics etc. I speak out of experience AND as a Media & Culture student with a 'Network Communities and Interactions' as pet subject I've done quite some analysing on these things. Come on, bring out the LOCKS! Let the anti-spa.m whip crack loudly! *slash slash* -batman
Hi... I found someone name andyngo starting to post strange thread on the chinese music download section. Here is the link. http://www.dramasian.com/showthread.php?t=11067 He/She probably done it on accident or miss posted by mistake. Anyway, I thought I should report it here. Sorry if I did this wrong. :(
i deleted that useless post, hes probably seeing if making new topics would count for post. keeping an eye on him
Yeah, I will keep an eye on him/her. P.S. He/She types two posts on the Stephy Tang music download thread I made about "how to download?" & "how to post?" question... instead reading this forum's FAQ section. -unsure
