New Forum Rules

[Vince]

This right here is EXACTLY what I don't want to see. Rule #1 - don't overreact to harmless posts. A ban should be for serious offences only.

I lean heavily towards winner's comments on minor moderation for only the most serious of things, letting posters handle things themselves. There is great risk in banning people, especially more active members.

I also agree with pierre in that a draft list probably needs to be proposed first before big progress will be made, but perhaps this thread will serve to help generate the initial draft.

Yes really! What you haven't seen is the hatred spread through emails to other members encouraging them to influence others and make stupid posts all generated by a small group who think they rule the forum.

It's only a small group which are ruining it for others and quite honestly I may even post these emails so you can see who they are and what has been said, - think you'll change you opinion fast after that!


BTW - you're spot-on with your last paragraph.

Really that's quite interesting re the behind the scenes stuff you mention. Some people obviously have too much time on their hands.
Hard to moderate when you have that going on to contend with as well.
