forum rules..

Just a quick question..

How many suspensions does it take before an account gets banned?

I don't mean this to be a personal attack in any way, but I noticed iBot is suspended again, and it honestly must be.. what, the 5th time that I've been around to see and remember?

Surely there must be a "three and you're out" rule, especially for persistent trolling?

he gets suspended for a week whenever he starts a topic lol.

He tries to trash every thread he posts in so hopefully this is this one where he doesn't make a return!

Each case is judged on its own merit. There is no set 'limit'.

It seems to me like he might actually have to start snatching up and eating billy goats for real before he stands any chance of being banned.

Indeed.

As much as we'd like to ban people for being irritating it would be a personal thing and as a moderator one has to be objective.

As with any case it has to be evaluated so that we can get the bigger picture and it's not always that straight forward.

If you have any further questions by all means get in touch with a member of the mod team.
