Banning members

Does this site ever ban people? And if so, what gets a user banned?

I've reported a (free) member 4 times because he sent me an unsolicited abusive message, but his profile is still active. I'm getting the impression that nobody really cares.

It's ironic that I (a paid member) have been banned from the forums and chatrooms multiple times for petty reasons, but abusive messages seem to be acceptable. What gives?

I think Admin do take the view that it's harder than most think to prevent somebody from accessing this site as a free-loader if they know how to mask their IP address. This site should NEVER have permitted members to change their user-name details willy-nilly as it makes it too easy for bad eggs to keeping coming back.

Was this contact always using precisely the same name and details for each of their abuse? If so either Admin doesn't think your issue one of concern or they have failed you.

pembrokeshirepair - it was one message, but offensive enough to warrant a ban, in my opinion. I shouldn't have to repeatedly report him.

I can understand how difficult it can be to police this site, but online abuse should never be tolerated.

"Just block him"

And let him do the same to someone else who may be less thick skinned than me? How about admin just ban him instead? Surely that's a better solution.

North of The Wall - youll need your vest

Here is an explanation from Admin from another thread on how they deal with reports.

******Just a quick note. If people report others and we can verify that they have broken site rules, we always take action (either a first and final warning, partially suspended account, fully suspended, mixture of the above).

Every single report sent via the REPORT link is reviewed. Clearly it's not in our interests to have people on here who are bad for the site. Equally we need to verify what has been reported and be fair to those who have been reported.

Admin

PS. we never provide feedback on what has happened. It's just not practical given that we get 100s of reports a day.

Here is what the page says after a report has been submitted:

Your feedback has been saved.

A website admin will shortly review your feedback and take the necessary action. After reviewing the evidence available to us, we may disable an account, remove a user, disable certain aspects of that user's account or issue a warning.

By leaving feedback you help improve the site for everyone who uses it. Thank you.******
