To Webmaster@specialreserve, Tony, Ali, Joe and the rest of the gang

er-no has been a good friend in the forums to me and he has contributed many times to the forum and the quality was very good.

So i propose that all those that wish to keep er-no in the forums sign this to help him.

All in favour say "yay" or "nay"

Thanks for your help

Yeah. I'm worried that people will look back on this after breaking the rules.

I say he shouldnt be allowed back on, with the same username.

He knew the rules. He broke them. He was warned. He broke them again.

How many more chances should we give him?

Also, would people ask for him to be reinstated if he was a newbie? Probably not, why should he be treated differently if he is a regular?

Was it wrong for erno to spam the following message, after all it's asking for it:

"Come on everone, lets get into the guiness book of records. Write completely random stuff here, and try to get the thread longer than 600 replies (the world record) WOOHOO LETS GO. In fact i got an i dea, lets have a word game. I write a word, and u reply with the first word which comes into your head. "

If however, this is not the only topic he spammed, then NO!

Here's what I suggest.

er-no is allowed back on, and allowed to use his name.

HOWEVER. All his details are deleted, his post count, and he will re-enter as a newbie. Lessons are to be learnt, not experienced.

I think this is the best way. Simply letting er-no back on will be bad for two reasons:

1) "Oh, if they let er-no back on, it wasn't that serious. I'll post loads of things to get my post count up, SR don't care."
2) Favouritism. If a newbie gets kicked off for doing the same thing, how many of us are going to petition to get him back on? None. However much it is agaisnt my thoughts of most newbies, it is not a good idea to allow regulars to do things that newbies can't.

I honestly think this is the best solution. I don't want er-no to lose his name, but he can't be let off, either.

See mouldy cheese's post? Yes, scroll down to it. Copy the url, and paste it into the address bar (removing spaces)

The resulting screen is an example of the stuff he's done which has annoyed webmaster & co.
