Any more requests?

Could you link to the profiles of everyone involved? Could be funny to see their last posts outside prison when search is back..

I assume it'd be as easy as changing the query to cross reference username and userid, then linking to the profile

from what I gather the new version of vBulletin gives smods and admin the option to enter a reason when making a ban. so when a banned user visits the site they get a message listing their sentence and the reason for the ban.

do we get to take bets on which admin/smod has the most bans at the end of each year?

That is just the best thing ever; thank you, Regi. When the search is back online, it should be worth many a days' entertainment.

:eek:

apart from that their bans tend to be quite lenient, 6 hours and 12 hour bans etc

Can we get a league table of bastards for say a month. That way we know who to avoid and it'd give the quiet mods a chance to top the league the odd month

Hopefully we'll give reasons for the bannings from now on. I know I usually don't bother

I didn't know there was a place you could do that, did it come with the upgrade?

Stark

Yeah it's an upgrade feature. Now when a user logs in, they can see why they've been banned (if you gave a reason) and a date when the ban will be lifted.

There is a space for recording reasons for site-bans.
However until now the only people that could see those reasons were admins and s-mods so mostly I haven't bothered to fill it in.
There is no such capability with forum-bans, at present.

Their bans tend to be more lenient, but more frequently given. Site-bans that are not no-brainers (Spammers, previously site-banned people re-regging, clearly illegal content) are pretty rare. On balance therefore I think we are actually more lenient.

And the banned user themselves it would seem. Resulting in much hilarity for older bannees when they're told "You have been banned for the following reason: None".

could you possibly post your smaller one up as an image?
can't seem to sort it, me not being a nerd an' all....

Save it to your PC and then upload to your members area?
You can use it from there then

normally, that's exactly what I would do, save it in my albums section,
however, albums are borked along with the search at the mo

Ah right, never thought about the albums - I meant http://members.boards.ie and use the file manager to upload it there.#

Doesn't matter now anyway.


Back OT:
Will forum bans be added to this list eventually? That'd be fun

Exactly

I don't think we can do this for forum bans... just yet.

For hands that stroke regi can feel as soft as your face, use mild green, admin liquid.

Lucutus needs to get the banning stick out a bit more. Ecksor must have his finger over the ban button 24/7
