Thread Title: "Crack down on Forum Rules"
(no avatar)

Due to the number of complaints we received, we are starting to crack down on violators of the forum rules.  You can find a link to forum rules on most forum pages and here http://www.gunauction.com/Help/Forum/ForumRules.cfm. 

In a nut shell these are the main rule violations we are seeing. No profanity.  This includes the "clever" use of $ signs etc. And no name calling.  There are idiots in the world and on this site but if you cannot communicate your frustration better than a 3rd grader on the playground, well maybe you should go to 4th grade.  No spamming or illegal activity. Enough said.

 

Some members have already been put in a Time-Out from the forums.  Lets not add any more names to that list. 

 

Thank you.

 "And no name calling. There are idiots in the world and on this site"

 

????    And, may we be introduced to you? It would really help, if we knew "your capacity" to hand out this "edict".

I think most here, are willing to "play by the rules", but, being that we have never seen your user name before(that I recall), how do we know, that you aren't a recently booted member? And, trying to extract a pound of flesh?

I do not think this is an unreasonable request. As, there are many with vendettas, that would love to "pose" as an authority figure here. Not being a jerk, just wanting to see your badge, officer. Laughing WALI........................

Nobody here knows you Diesel. Who are you and what capacity do you have with AA?

There was a time in the past when aa-bob was on the forums all the time and took part in discussions regularly. He patroled the forums and for the most part was fair and impartial . He had the forum members respect as they felt he was one of them.

This bunch could care less about your posts and would just as soon mix it with you as anyone else if you are not fair and impartial.

I , for one, am more than willin to welcome you to the forums but would like to at least feel that you are goin to be a part of the forums and not a ruler.

OLD RATTLER SAID THAT AND MEANT IT.Yell

OR, well stated, as this thread has a very "omnious" feel to it. A ruler, we do not need. And, when the name calling goes on, mostly, it is between friends. Will the "context" be taken into consideration, when it is some friends just messing with each other? Then, we have the 12ettes, bandit boy, sheepboy, ect, that were called many bad names, and, deserved it, only here for trouble. And, what "words" will be on the "list" of banned words? I don't see this heading in a good direction, for us regular "homies"   WALI................

It isn't, but, thats O.K. He didn't finish it, yet, you may want to delete the post, and, put it on the "down home " thread, (hunting stories I think)  lets stay on topic on this thread, as we are trying to discover what is going on. WALI...............
