How long is your ban for? As far as I'm aware the bans do scale upwards. First one is usually a week, second two and third I think is a month, although I think Badbear mentioned they all depend on the severity of the cause of the ban. If you go crazy your first ban will probably be harsher.

Well, the first ban period is generally for 14Days , and the second time badbear bans for 60days (just telling from what i've seen).

The first wave of mass-bannings that happend about a month ago the majority were definitely for a week. They were banned over the weekend and back the following one, though I'm sure your initial ban depends on the severity of the spamming in the opinion of the mod who issued it and isn't fixed in place.

Instead of mods just smacking people with the ban hammer left and right (I'm looking at you BadBear) why not at least give one warning first?

This forum has grown big nowadays. so, now the mods cannot afford half of the posts being made here to be useless. The mods have to ban the spammers quickly else their will be a mess around this forum. I completely support BadBear for his fast rate of banning people Wink

I got hit for 2 weeks straight up. And I don't think my posts were "crazy"

I give lots of warnings, and resolve lots of issues over pm's. Spammers rarely get warnings, whether it's ads in their sigs, referrals, or some other kind of spam.

I think a warning first would be better, but apparently they tried that previously and people still didn't listen or were rude/gave attitude back or whatever, but Badbear has stated that the ban is essentially your first warning.

LOL 10,000 posts?!? HAHA fucking ridiculous. Selective banning.

That's a perfect fucking example of why you were banned. That post added absolutely nothing to the topic. You pulled "10,000 posts?!?!" out of your ass. Literally quoted the guy for absolutely no reason. You main account deserves a ban, and so does this account.

AND THAT'S A POINTLESS POST! Fucking hypocrites you me and him. Regardless you are both sig ad spammers, especially you hilariousandco. There is no good reason to have 10k fucking posts.

Yawn. This is old now. I don't believe I've contradicted myself anywhere so I don't see how I'm a hypocrite, but if I am a spammer then surely I would've been banned by now. I understand yours and others frustrations when you were banned without a warning, but don't take your ban out on everyone else.

Hey man how about you guys give me a cut of what your earning to argue with me on topic in this thread. Roll Eyes

Besides, it's not fair when some people get banned an others don't.

No it isn't fair, you should push for a better solution than arbitrary bannings. I am. Hasn't happened yet though so I'm doing what I have to.

I sent you a pm and didn't get a response. I think if temp bans are used as a first resort then they should at least scale upwards ie 1st offence 3 days 2nd offence 1 week etc etc.
