    Don't let the girl hear that. She pressures me enough as it is. :(

    I was trying to be polite as you could be jumping a broom, smashing a glass or taking part in any number of matrimonial rites.

    Thanks Thaed, I understand that now.

    It's just that so many judge us. Maybe an all hot woman wedding is in order.

    Just playing devils advocate here, but...
    you acknowledge that there is no appeals procedure, and the potential for someone to have been unfairly banned, but you don't really provide any solution other than: suck it up.

    ...or was that the point?

    Well, there is certain procedure, but this isn't really written anywhere. Of course there's potential for someone to be banned unfairly, it does happen somtimes, however rarely (I can think of once recent instance, and it was dealt with calmly) but screaming abuse isn't going to help matters at all.

    The thing is, what "Solution" can I provide? All bans are pretty much taken on a case by case basis, it's up to the judgement of the moderators for someone to be unbanned, there's no set sequence buttons you can press in order to gain access to a forum again. All I can offer is a few tips; do's and don'ts, and hope they help.

    Well it's not nessicerally bad, but it might frustrate some users, so it's worth mentioning that they shouldn't get upset about it.

    yes,true.
    we hould have some sort of rule,(as we seem to be cleaning up feedback,or at least trying) that cat pix must only be used against idiots, or in good fun.
    anyone with a valid point shouldnt have lolcats saying "ha, u got aids" etc
    or maybe the new rule should be moar cats for some, mini cuban flags for others!!!

    There shouldn't be any rule for cat pics, their spontenuity is what makes them special.

    rule 7, mods shouldn't use people compaining about an action to justify that same shakey action of theirs.

    That's cos Mammy and Daddy brought them up to think that the sun shines from their arse and they can't do anything wrong. So when they dress up as crusties and go out onto the streets burning cars and causing riots, they blame the Gardai when they get their asses kicked.

    when have crusties ever burnt cars?
