    Running list of forum offenses

    Just so that everyone is clear of what will get you forum banned these days:

    1) Writing "clear fake war" in a thread
    2) Using the word twat (unclear if it's for language or the fact someone was called a twat).

    Things that are currently frowned upon, but not ban worthy (yet):

    1) Disagreeing with a mod
    2) Informing a mod they are doing a bad job
    3) General complaining

    I will edit this list as I get more feedback

    Memster,

    Just curious, why are you joining this crusade? I am still trying to figure out why anyone cares. Boredom? If you need something to gripe about just read Trump articles. No matter what your leanings are you can ***** non-stop about that all over facebook if you are bored.

    Just sayin...

    "while I heart shiester when we both play serious and are in the same kingdom, I hate shiester on the forums and pretty much disagree with everything he says. Even he knows this." - Flogger asking me out on a date

    The devs have made a decision to kill competitive utopia and have thereby killed my interest with it.

    I got warned for telling someone to 'get over himself' (meaning 'stop being conceited' for those that don't know).

    Memster that is the stupidest ****ing list I have ever seen. Obviously noone gets banned for saying fake war, or twat.

    <removed>
    Maybe this has a side effect of blurring their vision and attention.

    Put the first #1 in the second list if you're interested in accuracy.

    Here are some bans I've run into. Perhaps they will be useful in determining what is and is not ok:

    Asking where the stars go during the day time. (3 points)
    Facetiously suggesting GS reduced NS kills. (points unknown)
    Asking october_ who the **** he thinks he is. (9 points)
    Referring to the OP as a "******." (9 points)
    Referring to the OP as "ffff-fff-f-fffgay." (9 more points)
    Threatening to take a moderator's ban hammer away. (3 points)
    Informing the mods that "we aren't done until I say we're done." (3 points)
    Suggesting Brian and Sean should redirect traffic to battlefields and open a coffee shop. (3 points)
    Referring to a strategy suggestion as "downs-syndom knowledge." (1 point)
    Suggesting that people use botnets to shut the game down. (21 points)

    I'm interested in a point hierarchy!

    Do we keep the points after a temporary ban is given? Do they keep accumulating?

    Points expire. You can check your points via your profile. Bart will win any contest as Bishop gave him something like 99999 points while trying to permaban him

    What's a point worth?
    I guess the forum autobans people if they reach a certain amount? Is the amount of points linked to the duration of the ban?
    What's the expiration time for a point?

    Boredom sure. Also I don't really post on the forums all that much (as evident by post count). I do however read them and feel as if there are inconsistencies in moderating.

    I'm all for cleaning the forums up, but not with inconsistent behavior.

    One is not allowed to inquire about the gender of people playing in top kd's in correlation with the way top players argue. (1 day ban)

    Now playing a well prepared bacon rogue. Seasoned the little piggie with peper, thyme and rosemary. Put in the oven with potatoes under it so those get baked in the seasoned fat dripping down. Asparagus with cherrytomatoes, olives and basil on the side. Hmmmmmm.

    To the best of my knowledge I've never gotten any points. Does that mean I'm a wimp or does it mean I'm just short of being annoying enough to piss off mods?
    This is my province. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
    My province is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life.
    My province, without me, is useless. Without my province, I am useless.
    I must attack hard with my province. I must attack harder than my enemy who is trying to pk me. I must pk him before he pk's me. I will...

    Now that that 3 day ban has finally been lifted (by the way there is a 15 minute lag), You can get banned for

    1)Calling a mod incompetent, even if it is a fact.
    2)Stating that someone has a mental illness, even if it is a fact
