I wouldn't have a problem putting their ban expiration date in their sigs if it's someone who's actually an integrated member here and other members would like a reference. But I'm not going to put someone's rap sheet out in the open. The members themselves can decide whether to let people know or not.

I like this idea. Something to think about. I can't see any regulars getting banned, I'd probably be voted most likely if there were such a vote though, so I am requesting that in the event of a ban, the expiration date please be posted in my sig.

Well for what its worth, since I've been given an infraction for literally nothing, I don't think explaining yourselves is out of the question. And since apparently the ****ing thing is permanent, I'd love for everyone to say their piece about the rule infracted upon so we don't create rampant, unchecked mod power.

And yeah, I'm still pretty pissed about that ****ing stunt.

Or are you being facetious?

Seems like a bit of an invasion of privacy. Granted, trolls probably couldn't care less who knows about their dramz.

I can see someone not wanting their buisness put out there for everyone to see. But if your getting pissed because you got a write up your probally taking things a little to seriously. Are there not bigger issues in life then a write up on MB to get under your skin? Im not all for following rules in life but if you do something to get in trouble just suffer the consequences and go on. Not a big deal

I mean, I suppose the point is that it's not actually our business, as curious as I know we all are.

But no, seriously, I feel your pain. I got infracted when I first joined for using the name "Hitler". It was out of jest, both the post and the infraction, but it annoys the crap out of me that it's always there every time I open my user CP and I can't remove it. After all this time, it still makes me think there's a new visitor message for a second.

Who honestly gives a fuck?

If it's a forum regular that's been banned, there's usually a thread started asking why the member in question was banned and a mod usually addresses the situation.

Fixed.
