FAO Dons or Admins.

IMO (I haven't read the whole thread), I think the ruling in this MM (compared to other forums) is excellent - it gives me confidence to sell/buy. I don't think they need to be relaxed at all.

But...its got your head on it? So it must be you? :eek:

Anyway

I've been banned / suspended once...And dint get confirmation why...Also emailed a few times regarding issues, and not had replys back of any kind.

It would be nice that if you do get banned / warned etc you get a nice email saying why...or better yet, see if it can be given in the message when you log on...(Which I think can be done?)
 
Mods need to actually fill in the Part where it tells you WHY you were banned...

Last time i was suspended it Gave NO RESON... seems like the Mods just couldnt be botherd to type a sentance.

Burnsy I have sent you a PM about MY mm use.

Surely if you were being persecuted you wouldn't be allowed back every time, you'd just be perma'd and done with?

I have been, twice iirc.

The persecution comment was a joke between myself and SPW, it's a private joke that spans a few years. I fail to understand why you are so interested though but I will ask you to keep your nose out of it when you don't know all the facts :)

I find it mildly amusing that there are hundreds, if not thousands, of users who use the MM regularly without problem, yet when someone does break a rule and gets their access removed, there is suddenly a problem with the rules :).

The MM rules have always been explicitly clear. I know if I screw up out of my own ignorance, I will be banned. Simples.

No problem, and definitely no changes needed.

this, it's not hard to quickly re-read the rules every now and again when making a deal or buying something

That's my point. The current rules as listed in the FAQ which were changed on 5th September are NOT the rules which the Dons are using in MM.

The old rules were:

1st offence: 2 day suspension
2nd offence: 5 days suspension (I think)
3rd offence: banned

Current rules are listed as:

1st offence: 5 points and a warning email of the rule your breached
2nd offence: another 5 points which would give you a 2 day suspension since you will have 10 points.

After that it doesn't say how bad you need to be to be banned.

I have no problem with either the old or the new rules and I am not asking for them to be relaxed. My argument is that forum members should be able to know what they are though!

Not many people are arguing over their suspensions as most people know that they did something wrong after they get back in or can figure it out. The only time they don't is if the thread has been deleted then they don't even know which rule they broke. People are arguing on this thread that the punishment does not currently fit the rules.

Imagine if it was a court and you knew the rule for breaking the law was a two year suspended sentence but when you got to court, they don't tell you the charge and announce life imprisonment for shoplifting.

Where did you get the bit about infractions replacing the old system, rather than used in conjunction?

Tried the contact route when i had a suspension recently, had no response :(
I apparently trashed a thread but got a suspension, which doesn't match the rules.

Really?

The rules are quite clear and you broke the aforementioned rule.

2.2.1 - Members trashing the threads of others, with no intention of buying or making a sensible offer, may have their Members Market access removed permanently.

What constitutes a major rule break? What about a minor?

I've been banned from the MM twice, both because of a mistake by me. I would list something, completely forget about it then a week later list something else without closing the first thread, which is spamming apparently. I think I've done that twice now - is that 2 minors or majors?
