I'm certifiable.

I have never, ever accepted "he started it" as a defense. If the "attacker" and the "3rd party" both stepped far enough out of line for me to consider blacklisting, then they'd both get week-long timeouts.

-- Steve used to warn by PM, but that (save in rare circumstances) proved to be time-consuming and ineffective. Now, the 7-day blacklisting and accompanying notice serves as the warning, alas.

People like that are cops who give speeding tickets to people who are having babies or give out fines for having no seatbelt on on a five minute journey with their disabled son on Christmas Eve (that one actually happened to my dad. That was a poor Christmas).

Yeah, but flaming the people who were caught flaming would also be against the rules so you would be Blacklisted too.


Uh huh...I'd BL then and then BL myself for breaking the rules.

I'm that righteous.

Shishka banned me without so much as a hello. I didnt know why I was banned for half of the week I was banned, and found out it was for bumping, something that is allowed on every forum but this one. Warnings are useful for the members who are truly innocent in their actions and can be very useful in finding potential bad users. Just blacklisting them only prolongs the inevitable.

That is very true, but as some have said it is a waste of time to warn members. The quality of this community and pleasing its members should always be ahead of the moderators own wants and needs. It may be hard work, but you should do it for the sake of the members. If its too hard right now, maybe more moderators are needed to help spread the workload.
