Argueably, I'm probably the best example of a lengthy forum suspension, ever, and therefore, again argueably, the best to offer this position.
If you transgress in the general fora and receive a suspension ( the merits for or against is not the issue here ) there could be a perception that there is no real penalty if you were then allowed to retreat to th e bottom line.
Change nothing. It's working.
I know that for a fact.

Did Kewpie give you permission to announce her identity in the public forums? I believe that is frowned upon and might even be considered stalking. She has not broken the TOS agreement. Just because you are a mod it doesn't give special privileges any more that a game mod who breaks the rules.

Rec'd.
I miss the unreasonable skeeter, though. :'(
Edit - For the record, I think both cases can be defended. Personally, I agree with skeeter here because I prefer a forum with "heavier", but less frequent, bans than one with recurring but "lighter" bans.
There is also a tradeoff between length and range of the ban. If a public-forum-only-ban is t ...[text shortened]... bably needs to be much longer. Better? Worse? I think that depends on preferences, really.

I'm saying that the other private forums are different supermarkets inside the country of RHP.
Originally posted by PhlabibitDon't see how anyone on here, would find it a badge of honour to have had a forum ban. 😕
RHP is a site, not a world or country.
Forum privileges are just that, break the rules, they are removed.
Forum bans would become badges of honor for users, regardless what clan or club they may be a member of.
The only way I see this rule to change, is 3 strikes and you are OUT.
Most of us would be OUT by now.
I often stick to private forum ...[text shortened]... f I threw a swear fit out here and got a 14 day ban only to be posting all over private forums.
