Thread: Banned User

I don't know if you read the forum rules or not (most don't lol), but that's a good place to start if you are wondering how to get banned.

Now I am no authority on the matter, but I figure if you keep in mind the overall mantra of this site... that this is a gentleman's forum that is family friendly, and created to aid those who wish to learn how to wet shave, all will be well.

Heck - I have been in some heated debates on this forum and I am still standing. The key to not getting banned is not taking things personally. Present your argument if you must argue in a well thought out manner (like a gentleman would), and all will be good. When you start to take other peoples opinions that differ from yours and act out like a non-gent by name calling or accusing...

It seems to me the Forum Rules are all pretty common sense, respect eachother kindof stuff.

I don't know. That's why I asked the question. I don't think I've seen a single thread yet that would put someone in jeapardy of being banned.

I just can't see how putting tape on your razor or honing in your pajamas could escalate to an all out. Then again, if you take a gander over at a particular arbor site, the standards for gentlemenly discussion are quite different.

Spammers are banned immediately. Members have to break the SRP Rules Of Conduct found at the very top of the SRP FAQ page. Also in the SRP Library (Wiki). Banning a user is not an arbitrary decision made by a single individual but a team decision made after evaluation of the infraction/s and is usually preceded by plenty of warning to get right with the rules. You might say that we don't ban members, they ban themselves.

Pretty much!

For most of us that isn't too hard, but there's always some who just can't....

It's impressive to see how some people manage to get about anything to escalade....(AKA Trolling )

Those who claim to have been banned from here based on a silly cause like this have most likely been warned several times based on posts they have made, and probably been less than gentlemanly both in the open forum and in PM's with one or several Mod's (possibly also members)

As long as you use common sense and behave like a "normal" person you have nothing to worry about

A small thing to have in mind on the way: "If you're in doubt about what you have written and are about to post, you're probably right and better off not posting it"

Nope, it's just people pretending to be normal, big difference.

@pixelfied,

There seem to be the fair share of salty dogs round these parts.

Who's to decide what's normal?

According to the rest of the world we're a bunch of loonies, and maybe we are?

If so it's "Our Normal"
