Hello again.

I'd like to remind each and every user on these forums of their purpose - to chat to other people. The purpose of these forums is not to mess with other people's details, comprimise their details or fool them into doing things they didn't want to do.

So from now on, there is a zero tolerance policy on people messing with stuff to do with accounts, nicknames, customer details etc. I'd like to point out that Special Reserve's security has never once been comprimised, it's just some people obviously have nothing better to do than trick people into changing their details, giving out the MSN address etc.

This is why Tom has been banned, for fooling people into changing their nicknames and taglines, and why anyone else involved in this particular incident will also be punished. He may not have gained access to peoples' details but it is still making the site look unsecure and does nothing but annoy people.

So... you mess with your nickname to try and break the system? You get banned. You try and break the coding of the page? You get banned? You run a 'comedy' script posting under other peoples name? You get banned. It's that simple.

I'm at the end of my tether with people trying to screw up the site - believe it or not I don't like banning people, not with the amount of hassle I get from it - but sometimes I'm left with no choice.

Thank you.
Alistair

MYSTIQUE!

Just the woman I wanted to see.

Hasn't stopped the likes of:

Lawri: "Damn it it's raining and i need to go and pick my teeny tiny phone up from the shops!"
"I'm gonna be in Oliver!" and other posting gems with a similar moronic slant.

Snuggly, I agree wholeheartedly.

It's the harshness of your banning which keeps the likes of Sonorous from destroying these forums. Good on ya!

Just to re-iterate my point - don't mess with stuff if you don't want to get banned. Anyone who gets banned gets banned for a reason.

I am far too busy to be spending my time on cleaning up the forums when I could be doing something more enjoyable/more profitable (depending on who's point of view you look at it from). So please, come on, give me a break. I've asked you nicely before but people seem intent on making things difficult for SR moderators.

If you don't want to get your stats deleted or banned, then you should think before you do things. We don't have many rules on these forums, we only ask you don't try and cause trouble or promote other websites, yet some people insist on doing just that.

Grrr.
