To be honest, I can say on behalf of the modDB staff that we are incredibley sick of all the fighting, bickering and attacking that is taking part on our forums. It is disgusting, annoying and detracts from the overall maturity of the site. So, from now on, any users caught fighting or flaming another user or party of users will receive an instant system warning. No questions asked, no "please stop", you will get a warning. Remember, three warnings constitute a ban. The offensive behaviours that make you legible for a warning are:

  • Engaging in attacks on other users.
  • Attacking or making offensive remarks in your signature.
  • Belittling and making derrogatory remarks about another user's mod.
  • Carrying out verbal attacks on a user's profile or their mod profiles.
  • Flaming new(er) members of the site, due to mistakes on their behalf.

We hope to ensure that the forum becomes a more friendly community. Remember, this is not your site, your presence here is a privelege, not a right. We can revoke said right at any moment. Keep your drama off the forums, that's why they're called "personal" issues.

take the angst to livejournal or something, keep it off the forums.

Good, I'm glad to see some moderators enforcing rules around here. I know I haven't done my personal best, but there'll be no more "flaming" from me.

This thread has nothing to do with spamming, and everything to do with ignorant people being arseholes to other users. That's why I used the words

fighting, bickering and attacking

Does anyone see the Irony here? Of course you commented on spam, but I read your posts in mods and members profiles. You know you've done it, cheapy. Maybe it'll stop now. :| I don't mean to insult you or end friendship, but it's the truth.

is constructive critisism allowed?

Feb 25 2005 Anchor

No one is saying you have to all agree and play nice. But for god's sake have some fucking discretion now and then. Quite a handful of the members here have turned into little shits, always arguing and kicking their feet and causing trouble. Just stop. We're all friends here, and if we're not then learn to deal with one another. This site is not the place for you to take out your aggressions and frustrations on others. It is a place of congregation and enjoying video games. Don't abuse it.

No more unbannings. You get banned now, you stay banned.
