Calling it In
« on: March 17, 2011, 07:07:29 PM »
Over our years on the boards, we've all called in the ban-hammer on a thread or post.  Let's hear your stories!

Who here has called in the ban-hammer the most?
Which rule will you call it in the most quickly on?
If you could add or remove a rule, what would it be?

And for those on the receiving end of the ban, which rule have you guys broken the most?

I am proud to say that I never had my post changed to "see rule #"  :D

And it just so happened that way, I never memorized the rules.



Regarding the other part of the OP I can't say because I don't remember.

I called it in once that I can remember when I was in a particularly bad mood, and another time that I can remember when I thought it was well deserved.  And I wouldn't change any rules, but I would enforce some of them more strictly.  I would generally use it for #4, and that's the one I'd prefer to see used more often, tbh.

In nearly 12 years, I've never found the need to turn anyone in.

Of course, I busted my cherry on this thread here, http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,309026.0.html.  The report button wasn't enough, I had to resort to an email followed by a voicemail.  I basically reported anyone who posted in that thread.  You guys really should know better than to feed the people who purposely start rule-breaking threads.

Good point fury.  It might be a good idea too to go through the post history of the people in that thread to make sure there aren't any other infractions.

Well, I screwed up.  I now realize that I posted in that thread.  I had no choice but to report myself, thank God that report button is available on my own posts.

You have a point, looks like I'm going to have to go back and report myself.
