I have 7.

I hope this isn't a silly question, but are members allowed to swear?!
I have seen a few peeps swear

Although we frown on swearing we usually turn a blind eye as long as it is not obscene amounts. Swearing at other members however is no way tolerated on the boards. I urge you however not to swear as it creates a nicer environment to keep profanities off the boards.

Oh I agree. I wasn't going to, but I came across a post I thought was a bit too much. So I just wanted to ask.

Where's the post? You can report posts you believe break the rules by clicking the little exclamation mark

in the top right hand corner of posts.

I can't remember now, I was going through a thread and saw it.
Do I get an infraction if it turns out to be okay.

LAR · 07-17-2008, 05:30 AM

Arh - I found it again and reported it

Laydie · 07-17-2008, 05:32 AM

no, of course not. you get an infraction if you break the rules. they're in the first post. follow the rules and you'll be fine.

LAR · 07-17-2008, 05:33 AM

The place is cool

I should have discovered this forum before

Tomski · 07-17-2008, 05:46 AM

Like Ari said you won't get an infraction if it turns out we don't take action.

LAR · 07-17-2008, 05:48 AM

can I ask, if it is possible to know what the outcome of the report was so that I know the position this forum has for certain things.
Like I am not sure, whether my post report was too harsh and I could be more helpful if I knew what is worth reporting. I hope I am making sense

Mattster · 07-18-2008, 05:23 PM

You've completely confused me LAR, than again I'm half awake here. I think you said, what do I know what it reportable and what's not. I think.

Well, Posts that a worth reporting are usually any sort of post that is like insultive, abusive, spam, advertising(If it's in the wrong board). Er. There's an announcement in all of the Advice threads, If I remember rightly that'll give you a small insight of what you know what to report.

But they're the main reported post types.

Abuse, Insults, Advertising spam, spam... Basically anything that may hurt another member really.

So what is this so called restricted access?

Lachlan · 12-21-2008, 10:48 AM

I was posting in the cafe area and a user "VenomX" started provoking me and I tried to get him away and he wouldn't stop and now I have got an infraction for "spamming" and he was let off the hook.

Please explain? This user even ADMITTED to being banned before and not supposed to being on TH. Real annoying
