    Very true. I have tried to contribute to the Rugby forum on a couple of occasions and received outright bans in seconds. Very cliquey.

    A lot of mods will give you beatings if they disagree with your tone or argument, it can often depend on how close you are sailing to their wind. I have given up arguing though, if a mod does not like what you said you are going down until you shut up. Speech is not as free as you think.

    I think if you can limit your posts to areas which you genuinely love and care about you can really limit your beatings. It is getting into snipes on political forums that cause the most crap. I post all the time on music forums and never any hassle. But if I say that the Irish out half is a bit of a chunt I get a ban.

    You can always tell if a post has been reported as well. The mod will not know why they are dishing out the beating. They will have been prompted, some of them are real numbskulls.

    The Rugby forum is the worst for it...any negative remark about a player(even when evidence is provided to support remark) you get carded or banned

    one threadban on this account, no other issues on this or the last one

    Two yellows. One was for referring to breastfeeding Nazism. Didn't call anyone anything, just used the term. Breastfeeding isn't an option for everyone so bashing people about it isn't nice. You may not discuss options for formula though as that apparently is an offence against the orthodoxy.

    The other was for "baiting other users to get a reaction". I thought I was being friendly.

    How can I see the control panel to see my summary??

    Click your username on a laptop or desktop and the infractions tab is there to be seen.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,792 ✭✭✭✭Charlie19


    Or on your phone change from touch site to full site and do the same as above.

    On touch site: click on your profile. Scroll down and click on “full site”. Where you see the “about me” folders etc, there will be one there that says infractions. They are only visible to each user. We can’t see other users infraction folders but moderators can


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,382 ✭✭✭petes

    Probably isn't there if you don't have any.

    Don't think it's there if you don't have any;)

    You also cannot see bans from the Control Panel

    In - nil
    Out - 1,879 cards, 258 forum bans (in forums I currently mod, plus a few from when I modded Cycling and Dublin County North), and just shy of 5k sitebans

    Only 15 posters in this thread received any of them though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,311 ✭✭✭✭the_syco


    18 yellow card, 10 red cards, 1 temp site ban.

    Also still banned from Cycling and possibly also Christianity.

    The site ban was due in part to a poster that had Pig in their name.

    I only got a 24 hour ban once but I actually appealed that because it was a misunderstanding and in fairness within the hour, I was back in.

    How long are we talking to reach those numbers? Since 2009?

    And will you have a party for the 5,000th site ban?

    With the exception of one or two I think all of mine came from you. The site bans for sure


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,755 ✭✭✭This is it


    Can't see mine but in 10 years I think 1 x 1 day ban for chat in a no chat thread -_- maybe a yellow somewhere but that's about it.

    I know some people are out and out trolls but I don't understand how those who aren't find it so hard to stay on the right side of the mods/rules. Obviously there'll be the odd moment of anger, these things happen, but you see some posters with countless cards and bans and they think it's the mods that are the issue. In some cases it is, but when multiple mods are cardng and banning you across various threads and forums, it's you who is most likely the issue. I've only seen one or two cases where it was actually the mods but they're few and far between.

    Some are trolls but others have opinions that go against the grain of the majority. Sometimes a bit of a pile on can happen and it gets personal. Multiple reports of the person with the against the herd opinion happen and a card is produced. Can't be helped sometimes once enough people report one poster

    In some cases but I've seen plenty of threads where posters go against the grain and have no issues once they don't break the rules

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,700 ✭✭✭✭Arghus


    I'm clean.

    Usually the cards that are handed out are well deserved and those who complain about it usually deserve it most of all.

    But I have seen some posters done dirty over the years, there have been some miscarriages of justice.

    How do you become a mod ? Does Dev call you or what ?

    That question led me to my last Red Card, somebody asked it, and i said you had to send a detailed PM to Dav explaining why you'd be good at the job.

    Must have been time of the month as i got a red for that :pac::pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,923 ✭✭✭DopeTech


    I'm a rereg since 2015. In the last 5 years I've just racked up 2 yellows. One for posting a referral code before they were allowed and the other I cannot remember why. The reason doesn't explain it well on the infractions page. In a past life I remember getting a few yellows for discussing things that can't be discussed like cardsharing and modded apps.

    One because I genuinely did not know nonce meant paedophile. I thought it was harmless like dunce or nincompoop.
    The others I don't regret. Like the dog who ate the car keyring in the AA Insurance commercial says ''And I'd do it again.''

    There will probably be more.

    3 yellow, 2 red.

    One of the reds was for 'Referring to other members of the forum as "idiots"'. Must have been the conspiracy theory forum so...
