    I noticed many people who "claim" they were banned by accident.

    Some of them, however, are genuine, but there is nobody to contact once banned. I was locked out for a week, remember? I attempted to contact shawn, and there is no chance.

    I felt like i was walking on another planet.

    I have a suggestion. Make the contact form on the forums to email a moderator at random.

    This is only a suggestion. Don't shoot the messenger. I just think that currently the system is not fair. I thnk there should be a final system which allows the banned members who are totally guilty, to be locked out and banned from the contact form.

    Whatcha think? Its only a suggestion.

    I agree.

    I was once banned for 2 months because I did something that is not even aginst the rules. But the mod thought it was. I don't blame him for banning me because he thought it was against the rules (but it could have stopped him from banning me if I could have contacted him). I was banned for another 4 months because my dad created an account here and I had posted from my dads computer before (multiple times), dp thought it was a dupe account. I could bring out a couple more rants but this isn't a rant thread. :D

    I was making $200 a week off here before I was banned. Now I make barely any (so I don't really try aymore).

    This is just my opinion. I don't think opinions deserve infractions. :D

    With Integrity,

    WRONG -

    Bans are earned with Infraction Points,

    Infractions are given by the mods

    Once you reach 10 points you are banned.

    Its a real simple system.

    Hope this helps

    Don't break the rules and you will be fine

    No need for anything extra

    This system has been working fine

    Thanks for your reply. I was really really scared of being flamed by creating this thread.

    I think my ban was deserved, i was being a right "jerk".

    If it is was working fine, why would i have created a thread suggesting a improvement? People are getting banned for "dublicate accounts", even though they should still be here.
