Just sent him an email explaining things to Rusty.
Rusty hasn't been banned and is a valued member of this site. However it has become apparent that every post and every question has been answered by a certain individual.
So Rusty has been put on "Ration" status and this means he is allowed to post 3 posts in each section per day. Hopefully by doing this we can enthasise that this site is about quality of posts and not quantity.
The status is temporary and can be increased or removed as time goes by.
I'm sure a few of you will quietly agree with what has been done and Rusty should take it with a pinch of salt, as it's a light hearted way of pointing something out.
Yes certainly he hasn't done anything wrong. Although he has some kind of rocket fuel flowing through his blood that just needs to be turned down a touch.
Plus he hasn't done something I didn't do when I was 16. It just takes a little time and experience to work out that sometimes if you give a view on everything, some people start to think you are a "know it all".
Yea its class, when i saw that i thought there this new classing systme like if you got like 100 posts you get the name ration on your name or in that kind of way.
With regards crackhour I have my suspicions that he never had any intentions of joining.
Seemed the guy (who was 32) when he first posted, never seemed in any hurry to get on a prmc or start training. Although those are my personal thoughts.
just out of curiosity what are all the satuses a person can have? i know of active member, mod, admin, banned, rationed memeber and Royal Marine Commando. Anymore?
that's mad that he is set to rationed. i LOVE this site and am on here ALL the time. i hope it does not happen to me! Although i don't post on every thread i read. i only post if i have something half interesting to say!
In Rusty's case it was only done in a light hearted fashion, part of joining will mean you need to have a sense of humour, which most of you will have and Rusty should see that we were only joking.
The other 2 went way overboard with what they posted. Just to carry on from that don't think that you are going to be banned from the site for disagreeing with anyone, admins and mods included. The incidents in the 2 banning instances went much further than disagreements.
