I'm newish here and I was wondering- How does one get banned on here?

I've seen a couple of people in forums that have been banned.

Are there any bad girls or boys that WrongPlaneting on the edge a bit?

Quite a few. This is a big board. A lot of the banned ones know each other. zOMG Aspies is a good resource for banning stories. Dunno how reliable it is. :)

I've never been banned but, I think you get warned a couple of times or more before you get banned. That's why I've tried to cut down with cussing on these forums. I don't think they like the cussing.

I have about 30 posts with cussing and I was never warned.


I WAS warned, however, when I started a bunch of threads they found too similar to each other to be different threads ("Post a random fact about your father", "Post a random fact about your cousins", "Post a random fact about your mother", etc). All but one of them was removed.


I was warned every other time they thought I did something out of line, so I don't think they mind the cussing much. Or they'd tell me like they always do.

I was warned because I figured out how to bypass the swear filter on the forums.

But if you don't try to bypass it, they don't warn you. :)

Yeah, but I kept bypassing the filter and Lau got upset I guess. I don't even know if lau's a mod or not. @_@

He is. He's the newest one, I think. Yeah, they have the filter for a reason. But I guess they find partial swear and curse words to be okay...

I've found they don't care if you swear when it's filtered.

yeah, unless you're in the 18+ discussion forum, bypassing the filter system is frowned upon for obvious reasons.

Isn't there a rule against discussing banned members?

So you mean if you swear when it's filtered it's fine?

Ooohhh, how does one go abouts bypassing that f*****g filter? Not that it's hard to insinuate what the word was past the filter, it's just that I hate how it always puts that lovely "F" in lower case. :(
