Things are kinda hectic around here. Just a reflection of our "times".. USMB Mod Staff has been letting too many illegal posts slide.. Frankly, because the number of illegal posts have skyrocketed.. When we clean threads and REMOVE illegal posts, that IS a warning that shows up in your alert box.. You should take those as a hint to slow down..
We see members getting 3 or 5 posts deleted in ONE thread and just moving to another to do the same thing.. Any SINGLE "illegal post" is warnable.. We've been letting it slide a bit too much.. Because honestly, many of you are taking advantage of US working hard to keep this place clean..
What is an "illegal" post? It's NOT a matter of opinion.. ANYONE can read the simple USMB and know this.. It either --
1) Violates the very few CONTENT restrictions called out in the "Site Wide Rules" section of the Rules
2) Has NO SPECIFIC topical content in it.. Meaning that it's either OFF TOPIC or completely personal flame.
3) It is trolling or baiting other members to ENGAGE in personal or off topic replies...
NOTE -- NONE of that has ANYTHING TO DO with "censorship" or bias...
Mod Staff will be increasing the number of warnings/bans/thread bans that are handed out on illegal posts.
You will not get 2 or more deleted posts per thread without one of those consequences.
We will continue to do this UNTIL we get enough compliance to cool the place the heck down...
