I got suspended for claiming someone despite there being nothing in the FAQ to say that making posts claiming newcomers results in suspension.

I don't have a problem with specific rules being in place on a forum, but at least make the rules visible rather than some arbitrary decision.

That's just how Dons claim someone.

Ban = Don Claim

They're bound to have an army equal to North Korea by now. :eek:

The claimed thing had gone on way too long. So glad that crap was banned.

No FAQ in the world is all-encompassing, nor would anyone read it if they were.

It's in the sticky though.

Put that, along with the Jesus thing in the GD sticky about GD quality.

But that's my point - this isn't in the FAQ. You can't assume everyone has read every thread ever posted. There are 485,750 threads.

If someone breaks a rule that is clearly in the FAQ then fair enough, but breaking a rule that was posted in one of the 485,750 threads, and that you can't be sure they've even read, is ridiculous.

@ Garath, like I said, it'd be better on the first page of the GD quality thread. Not the FAQ thread.

If so, apols, I was typing when you psoted it, so only saw it after I had hit reply. I just searched the Sticky about GD quality but couldn't see anything. Can you point me in the right direction as to the sticky, so that I can be sure there aren't other rules I may have broken but not been aware of?

Never mind, I see that you've just updated the 'Nothing Useful in Here' post @ 19:17 with the info.

I take it that it wasn't included anywhere else (except the thread that I hadn't read) at the time I was suspended then?
