FORUM NOTICE About Problem Members and BANs

Forum Boss

Administrator
I want to keep this message brief. Sometimes less is more.

If I have to spend an hour cleaning up some problem created by a member in a transaction though his deliberate deception or not following our rules -- that member will be banned from the site. FOREVER.

Or if I have to spend considerable time cleansing threads because of rude, immature, or dangerously wrong comments by a member, that member will be banned. FOREVER.

NO DEBATE, NO DISCUSSIONS.

I have no time to handhold or babysit bad members.

Why? Here are my duties:

Write or Release 1000 articles a year.
Manage Forum with 42,500 members
Manage 100+ Ad Campaigns (and solicit and build those ads)
Read 100 emails daily
Answer 50 emails daily
Make or take 1.5 hours of business calls daily.
Security check 5000+ new members per year. (I just spent 1.5 hours doing that daily task on a Sunday night.)

One guy -- to do all that.

From this point on... if a Forum member behaves badly, the next thing they see when they come back to the Forum will simply be the notice: "Your account has been banned".
