7 Day Bans at DP
The (BST) buy, sell, and trade forums is still a mess because people are not following the rules that were set almost 2 months ago. Thousands and thousands of infractions have been given in the last 2 months but it does not seem to get any better. Personally I’ve given up way too many hours of my own time moderating that crap. (quoted from Digital Point)
It’s about time someone lowered the boom on many hundreds of people trolling through the DP forums doing what there not supposed to be doing.
aaron_nimocks was brutal and no mercy was shown as he mowed his way through BST rubber stamping literally hundreds of accounts.
BANNED
Of course all the whiny threads and posts following this momentous occasion were quickly quashed as more infractions and banning occurred. When you join a forum, it makes perfect sense to get familiar with the rules of that forum. Digital Point is no different then any other forum, they all have their rules and your expected to abide by them, or else.

The problem is, many people have been posting on the forum for years without problem. They do not go to any of the new rules postings, because they’ve been posting for a long time without problem. I think it’s just a lack of communication. If new rules are to be enforced, you should be forced to read them as soon as you log in. And they should be clear and understandable. Right now many good digitalpointers are being banned unnecessarily. I guarantee many of the forums in there are going to grow stagnant very quick if the ban cannon continues to be fired.
August 19th, 2009 at 2:08 pmHey,
I read all the rules, and I am prepared to follow them all. I realized after, that I few times, I said “PM sent”.. But those weren’t the bulk of my posts. But, somehow I recieve 10 infractions and was banned.
I don’t blame the moderators, but I was just a Noob and wish I could still be on DP…
