Originally posted by PhlabibitIt's not a grocery store either. Why aren't you on CFT's case for his stupid analogy? I know why, but I can't say it or I might get banned. You know that too.
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.

Originally posted by PhlabibitIt's reasonably sound only because you say it's sound. You have an opinion sure, but so do others that oppose your views. Cutting off discussion sounds so communistic it stinks. Don't talk about the secret police or get put in a jail cell for life. You would think you were in support of a Chinese or soviet rule of law. Certainly not an American or English system. <shakes head> Go ahead and spit in the face of democracy. I'm disappointed in where you have taken this. You planning on defecting soon?

Read my post again, the reasoning for not having private posting rights is sound.
Do you want 3 strikes you're out?

Since there's no real evidence that someone has been issued a forum ban, I'm not sure how it could become a badge of honor. There's no badge. Even if people did try to get banned, the problem solves itself as these people would quickly escalate to 1-year or perma-bans and ce ...[text shortened]... s to public forums and seen the effects you mention. In that case, I withdraw my suggestion.
Originally posted by IchibanovRecently RN ran into a site where people went out of there way to get bans from other sites. Don't you see where users would post like idiots for their mates to view, catch a ban... and run back to their private forum to brag and laugh?

Originally posted by PhlabibitFrom what I understand, trolling other site forums and getting bans was the reason Ghettonia existed. If such a private forum showed up within RHP, Russ could take care of it easily enough. He had no control over Ghettonia, but he has all god-like powers within RHP.

Originally posted by IchibanovI wouldn't term it a waste of time, Ichi. And if my previous post made it sound that way, that wasn't my intention. I'm sure the owners of the site appreciate feedback about all aspects of the site and how it's run.
I actually agree with you Flea. And I think we're all realistic about the chances of such a change being made when real improvements to the chess side of the house remain to be made.
Still, if no one ever champions the idea, the chances of such a change go from remote to zero. In the end, it's probably a waste of time, but it's our time to waste.
