A reminder about the rules here...

Mods don't get any type of payment, well I can't pay you but I can say thanks for being a mod. So from one small guy to all the mods, Thanks for taking the time to help with the forum.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/veryhappy.gif.fec4fed33b4a1279cf10bdd45a039dae.gif

We dont have many rules here, but we expect the ones we do have to be obeyed. In the first 10 mins Ive been here this morning, Ive seen one person post ****** they knew violated a rule, and another person post the N word (whom I know understands well that is a rule violation).
We've been doing a lot better lately guys, but that is no excuse to push the boundaries and think the mods will slack off on the rules. I dont like being a hard ass, but I dislike even more when I have to waste my time daily deleting posts people made that knew they were breaking a rule. I have better things to do, as do all the other mods here. So Im posting this reminder that the rules are still here, still enforced, and my patience is wearing thin with people knowingly breaking them because they know we try to be lenient. I wont have my lenience taken advantage of. If I see one more person knowingly break a rule here because they think we will (at worst) just delete the post, I will be giving a ban (when an infraction would otherwise be given). And my nice-guy warnings of simply deleting the posts is over. Sorry, but I guess it has to be that way. Maybe after a time of things continuing to improve, I will slack off again. But until that time, you might as well consider me the ogre around here.

To everyone else who still abides by the (very few) rules we have here, I appreciate it. I know the vast majority of members here are good about the rules, I dont mean to give the impression I think otherwise. But you guys probably already understand why I feel the need to post this warning to others.

Lastly, this thread is not intended to debate those rules. No N word, no ******. Simple, easy to remember, and set in stone. Do not clutter this thread up with your personal opinion on those rules. Your opinion does not affect things one way or the other, so posting you think its unfair or wrong or whatever, is just a waste of keystrokes. The rules are what they are, they are being enforced, and if you dont like it, there are plenty of other websites with different rules.

Cheers.

Meh, I could care less about "the n word" and even though I disagree, the no ****** rule isn't that difficult to follow either...I think the current set of moderators is doing a decent job at controlling this place. Even though it was fun as hell, I like that the tech sections are no BS now, it's a step in the right direction for the forum in general.

I loved being a mod when i moderated a hacking forum. It's funny when people violate the rules, I'd just ban their *** with a witty remark. If people violate the rules, just ban their *** lol. Don't need to make topics to tell people to follow the rules, because any forum you go to, theres gonna be people who don't follow the rules.

If they can't comply to the rules, hit them with the ban hammer.

You obviously haven't been around long enough to know the history.

Yeah but it's different moderating a hacking forum. You not only gotta deal with people breaking the rules, you gotta deal with leechers too, and that's a PITA.

This is stupid, people know the rules. I've been banned several times, I hold no animosity towards any of the mods simply because I knew when I broke the rules. I don't understand people who blatantly break rules and then are surprised and outraged when they're punished. I don't see why the mods have to remind regular members of the rules 20,000 times, just hand out infractions/ban, and be done with it.
