    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

What happened to the suspended members log?

I was sure there was a place here that listed those members who were suspended or banned, but I couldn't find it. I did a search on "suspended members" which didn't turn up anything. It may have had a different name?

Not a big deal, but with all the various threads about the stricter enforcement of the rules, I was curious as to who bit the dust.

Anyone know what happened to it, or am I just not looking in the right place?
 
It was discontinued when I went to the more automated system we now have here for fines and suspensions. The suspended members file was a strictly manual process that I maintained in order to keep things straight for me. There was an increasing fine procedure being used where each subsequent fine would double as added incentive to follow the rules. This would have been rather difficult to code into the automated script, so I decided it wasn't worth the effort to implement it in the new code.

Right off hand, I don't know of any easy way for members to be able to find out who has been suspended from here. I can do so from the admin section, but that doesn't really help you much.
 
Thanks for the info, Rich. Wasn't a big deal, as I said. I'm just glad to know I wasn't hallucinating that it used to exist!
