• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    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....

Infractions.

I seem to be having a problem with infractions, how many points earns you a seat on the outside looking in?
 
10 points will earn you a 3 day vacation.
20 points earns you a 30 day lock out.
30 points and it's time for you to move along and find somewhere else to hang out.

Points are generally wiped clean after one year from the infraction.

And there will be instances where an insta-ban will be implemented if a mod believes it is warranted.

If you have any issues with infractions, ask the mod who issued them for an explanation.
 
Hey big meanie can you earn back any infraction points from good behavoir before a years time or is that a atomatic year per infraction per say.
Sincerly the tinman
 
Planning on building up some points, and want to cover your bases in advance? (You don't HAVE any infraction points)

I'm not "the" Big Meanie, but I'll field this one.....
Good behavior is the expectation - it's what prevents you from getting infractions in the first place; or, once that bridge is crossed, it's what allows you to maintain the privilege of participating here.
 
Thanks Harald I dont have any points but did say a naughty word and got scolded but in retrospect I should not have said the s word so I told the mod I didnt use my head wich was the truth.Well anyway thanks for answering Harald
