    With all the members this forum has you're bound to see quite a few banned usernames. If people get 10 infractions they get banned until the infractions expire, depending on the offence commited some users may get permanent bans.

    Follow the rules if you dont want to get banned yourself, and you'll be just fine. Any doubts or questions just ask them, and there will always be someone willing to help, it's best to ask questions about the forum in suggestions and feedback, but dont use this forum to complain about infractions or bans, youll just end up getting another infraction for ocmplaining about it :)

    when the number of members grow too high, they have to be controlled or regulated by certain rules. Rules are to be followed and not otherwise. When something goes out of hand, then comes the infraction and accumulation of it leads to the eventual ban :(

    I see, so I thought all those names with 10k posts were permanently banned, that would have been a real pain.

    I was curious as to where we see our infractions if we have any? I've looked in my profile and can't seem to see anywhere that mentions the word infractions (is it the same as rep?)

    Any help is appretiated.

    Thanks,
    Benjamin

    Thanks, I try my best to stick to the rules but I know sometimes I must slip up as is human nature. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't on the brink of a temp ban.

    I think you saw w3bmaster, don't worry it is a habit for him to get banned, he will be back in no time :)

    Go read the rules of the forum, and you should be ok,
    Don't bump threads,
    Don't use affiliate links in your threads
    Don't start thread in wrong category
    Don't run up post counts


    This is just a few there are many more.

    Yes there is. Read the FAQ/Rules and read all the sticky threads for each individual forum before you post. Follow the information given there and you will be fine. :D
