New member Kramer given 4 hr suspension, to be lifted real soon
New member Kramer started 4 identical "Proposed New Topics" (PNT's) in rapid succession. My guess is that this was an accident, but I wanted to make sure it was stopped - Thus I gave Kramer a 4 hour suspension.
I will be lifting the suspension right after I post this message.
Kramer - Sorry about that. It just seemed like something that needed to be done, to keep you from pilling up more PNT's.

Brennakimi given 24 hour cooling off period
See here and the message it is a reply to.

ps: I still think that using upper case letters in the proper place would help in the readability of messages.
AbE: Hi Brenna, just another comment about messages in all lower case. You're obviously not the only one. Not only are there many in the on-line world who use only lower case, where I work the documentation person for one of our group's products does a great job, but she uses only lower case in all her email.
For short messages I have little problem with all lower case, and many of your messages are short. But if I see a message with more than one all lower case paragraph, or a long all lower case paragraph, unless the topic is fascinating or Forum Guidelines defying, my eyes rebel and I usually won't read it. Maybe it's a generational thing.
Edited by Admin, : Add my own lowercase comment.

Jon suspended for 24 hours
Jon has been suspended for 24 hours as a warning and reprimand for this outburst and also saying this to Schraf:

What a beautiful straw man you've built up here... let's hope you're the only crow he convinces
Jon is hopelessly addicted to this thread and needs some time away from it to do his homework! Lets hope he puts as much passion into that as he over zealously does here!

Crashfrog, Brennakimi both given 2 hour suspensions
See http://EvC Forum: Guns -->EvC Forum: Guns, and chain of responses.
Crashfrog responded to a message I had bannered "Off-Topic Do not respond". Brennakimi responded to Crashfrogs response. Brennakimi also did numerous trite messages in the same topic.
Crashfrogs "hovertext" suspension message:
Suspension expires: 04-30-2007 11:26 PM (1h 54m from now)
Reason: See http://EvC Forum: Guns -->EvC Forum: Guns
2 hour suspension - Replying to an off-topic message despite very prominent warning not to do such - Adminnemooseus
Brennakimis "hovertext" suspension message:
Suspension expires: 04-30-2007 11:30 PM (1h 57m from now)
Reason: 2 hour suspension - See http://EvC Forum: Guns -->EvC Forum: Guns
Responding to message that got Crashfrog suspended for responding to off topic message. Also numerous other trite messages in same topic. - Adminnemooseus
The "General discussion..." topic link is below. Gripe away.

Brennakimi given 3 days off
Perhaps it was just the attitude and the profanity. We need to keep in mind that even if this is a giant shared Blog, it is governed by Forum Guidelines

Nuggin given 1 day suspension
Although he adamantly insists that he be allowed to do so, I am giving Nuggin a one day suspension for again attacking the person rather than the issue.
In this post, note the chosen subtitle and references to Jon.

PaulK for less than I said
Since Paul is around I'll make it just a 2 hour suspension.
See Ken Ham Museum thread.

Messenjah of one suspended
The Porteus brothers have been around long enough to know the rules, but it seems that rules aren't meant for such enlightened individuals.
They continue to flout the system. They have other names out there too, hopefully they aren't stupid enough to use them.
Suspension is indefinite.
{Added by edit: I presume the primary cause of this suspension is MOO's behavior at the "Drugs" topic. His final message there is message 132. You can work your way back from there. - Adminnemooseus}
Edited by Adminnemooseus, : See above.
Edited by Adminnemooseus, : Change message number from 127 to 132. For some odd reason it is message 127 that shows up as the last message by MOO in his index.

    Bgmark2 Suspended for 1 Day
    It's probably just overenthusiasm coupled with a wide range of interests, but Bgmark2 has already posted to 17 threads this morning, many of which were dormant. Though I don't think it was the intent to spam, and result is similar, and so I've suspended Bgmark2 for 24 hours just to make sure he notices that we're concerned about spamming types of behavior here.
    I encourage Bgmark2 to pick just a few threads to participate in at a time. The experience of moderators is that those who spread themselves thinly across many threads are unable to do so productively.

    susan8800 banned as one of the twins
    Shitty little buggers think they are fucking smarter and better than everyone else. As far as I'm concerned, they will get back in here when hell freezes over.
    *as for the language, see the foul language thread.

    modi gone for 48 hours
    Thought it wise to nip this one in the bud. Large copy/pastes and insulting (or attempting to perhaps) a moderator in reply to a moderator post that gives instruction on how to leave comments on moderator action.
