LAST EDITED ON 06-05-02 AT 00:48 AM (EST)Last fall we adopted a zero tolerance policy on personal attack flamefests.
That means IF IN MY JUDGEMENT (ie, I don't give a rat's ass what excuses you try and come up with after the fact) the content of your post was a personal, hate filled attack on another poster then you're gone. That's it.
...post any posts that you intended to be sarcastic personal attack jokes at your own risk. Although I believe that I can pretty effectively tell the jokes from the flames, if in my opinion the post was a geniune personal attack -- despite what you claim to have intended -- then you're banned. Immediately and irrevocably. There are no second chances. There is no debate. You do not have the right to appeal. My decisions are final.
