I hope this system would push through!

Just a thought, this is multi-tasking for our mods reviewing all posts with Esato's growing family! (Do i get a yellow card for asking this one?)

Just a suggestion:

I haven't read the terms of use (typical), but if it isnt specific enough about Esato DOESN'T want, then it should be...I'd go with Orangeman on the 3 strikes you're out part.

If it IS, then the rules should be enforced...

If people, such as me, don't read the terms, it's their problem, they have been given the opportunity to inform themselves.

I believe this will never be implemented. However I thing it would be a good idea the moderators to give warning through a PM and am sure the member will behave in a better way.

But what is the criteria for these warnings...?

Will it get better or worse?

@ energetic

I received a warning once about some unapropriate pics on a thread, and now I know what I can and can't get away with...it shouldn't be more complicated than that...

perhaps as memebers we should be more active in either pointing these threads out to mods who probably have a tough job going through all the posts as it is
or even getting invovled in the thread and asking people to calm down or point out that they are going over board.
i know its hard sometimes but i do agree recently (seems to be around the time a new se phone comes out or new nokia) that some threads have been totally over the top.
they have gone beyond people expressing opinion to just people insulting people because they have a different phone. also some people seem to enjoy making things up and i aint talking about orangemans thread which was funny and designed to prove a point.
i guess all memebers have a job to do in policing themselves

Very true mate. More PM's to Mods is what is needed

once again, a call for common sense would be needed...Should this be the action taken, Mods most likely be flooded by irrelevant pm's to the mods, who would post less because being busy reading pms...it's a tough nut to crack, but through discussion, I'm sure we can find an agreeable solution...keep the feedback coming

at the end of the day we are all members and have to all do our bit perhaps we all need to think a little more before we post and perhaps some people need to think alot more before they post.
nothing wrong with good debate but when it gets into a pointless slanging match its a waste of good space.
if people thought before they posted ie stuff like "oh its a blokia" and thats there some contribution. then surley we could cut some of this out if thats your view fine but at least back your view up otherwise it just becomes yet another flame war
treat others as you wish to be treat yourself

You are right orangeman and I do know of other forums who employ both ideas.It is frustrating and the sad thing is it is probably not kids.

This would mean more work for the moderators. They would have to police every post. You could argue "He/She posted this and got away with it, while I posted that and got yellow." Even if it would be non public there could be leakage. Impossible to draw a line. Feasible ?Yes. Realistic - I don't think so.
On top of that there is free speech and as long as you don't offend anybody that should be honored.
And who can throw the first stone here anyway???
And if you don't like it -> don't read it.
