Board for everybody who is interested in BrainKing itself, its structure, features and future.
If you experience connection or speed problems with BrainKing, please visit Host Tracker and check "BrainKing.com" accessibility from various sites around the world. It may answer whether an issue is caused by BrainKing itself or your local network (or ISP provider).
Czuch: Well this is not really a place to talk about specific issues like this, but is a good time to remind everyone about the User Agreement, which everyone on this site should follow. This user agreement covers the whole site, even fellowships. Fellowship do allow for "relax the foul language rules", but does not allow the rest of the user agreement to be ignored.
Purple: When you ban, the posts are not all deleted. So a Moderator has to be careful to also hide them (so the bad posts are not seen), or remove the bad post. (would not be good to ban without doing something with the bad posts). Most moderators do a good job of coping the post to the event log - which logs everything that is done - - - and is recommended when a moderator does take action, to just copy & paste the offending posts so there is a written record.
coan.net: I guess the point is that if someone is breaking the user agreement, then it doesnt matter where it is occuring, they should just be kicked off the site, right?
But if you are doing something that only warrants discussion board sanctions, then why not a ban instead of just a hide?
Jason: I got that part too, but they also cannot post anything else either....
why not just a ban where they get a message, you cannot read this board, you acn not write on this board, just like when you are not a fellowship member and try to access a board?
