Outed : Is your pesonal information safe?

If you have something so weird, strange or off-topic to post and think it doesn't belong in any other forum; you're probably right. Please put all your gormless, half-baked, inane, glaikit ideas in here. This might also be a place where we throw threads that appear elsewhere that don't belong ANYWHERE end up, instead of having to flush them. FORUM RULES STILL APPLY.

That's better. Please inform your moderator so that the next time he can refer to that rather than phpBB's terms of service.

W try to run CEO with basic common sense. We're not Nazis about anything, and nobody has been banned without numerous warnings first.

You're a smart guy, BOFH. I bet my life savings I could list 10 random actions, and you could figure out which ones are allowed on CEO and which ones aren't.

Common fucking sense. That's all we ask for.
I'm all with you on this, but you see how it's weird seeing people being tossed out for breaking rules when said rules don't exist. Now they happened to actually exist, Username Taken just didn't know about them or failed to refer to them for whatever reason.

In many countries that is directly illegal to make public. Look into it. The sites where you found that information about yourself is possibly in direct violation of PCI-DSS, for example.

In part because they're not really "rules" in that you make a mistake and we ban you.

They're guidelines for the shit that will make us have to do work and send you a message telling you not to do it again. That always happens first. And usually second, third, fourth and fifth. We clean up the offending posts so many times you guys don't see what said person was doing over and over again... then finally we reach a point where we realize they're not going to listen. THEN you see that we ban them and go "WTF!?".

We tell you, as GenMac did in this thread, that they were repeat offenders and had multiple warnings... but that doesn't seem to qualify.

One simple rule... if an Admin/Mod edits/cleans up your post and tells you not to do something, don't keep doing it. That rule is about as no-brainer as it gets.

Sorry, but I don't really need rules. After all, rules are for fools and judges, and I am neither of them. :whip:

It qualifies. You have to understand I get curious when you say people get banned for breaking the rules and then when asked where those rules are you turn around and say there are none. As far as I'm concerned the question has already been answered. Please don't bundle my questions with people saying "WTF" over anybody being banned, I was simply asking where I could read the rules. I am not criticizing any decision since I don't know enough to do so, and frankly don't really care. Just wanted to see those rules that were referred to, s'all.

You do happen to be a moderator. You do understand that simpy for being a moderator the users will have some expectations. I don't expect anything of you, however. You have made your stance very clear.

My favourite ass burgers joke:

Wife: we need to dress up for dinner tonight.
Husband with Aspergers: as what?
Bodge: This ain't Kansas, and the neighbours ate Toto!
