The following are the new forum rules which all members MUST abide by. Failure to do so could result in a ban, the length of which is at the discretion of Administrators.

1. No Racism or Agressive Language. This does not include swearing, although we do request that is kept to a minimum also. Agressive language includes the use of threats towards another member.

2. No discussion of Warez. This does not include editing or patching. However no discussion of illegal activity such as downloading actual games or distributing illegally copied games is allowed.

3. Signature images must be kept smaller than 450 pixels in width and 150 pixels in height. Images used in sigs larger than size results in the forums becoming mis-shaped.

4. Before posting a question, always look out for the sticky threads (Ones which are always at the top) in a specific forum, these may well have the answer to what you were going to ask.

5. Do not spam. This includes the continuous posting of one word replies and "Chatting" in a thread to a single other user. Chatting amongst groups is ok, but only in appropriate threads. If you wish to have a discussion with only a single user, please use the Private Message function.

We at PESInsight do not want to restrict your posting with long lists of rules, but we do request that you follow these small few. I hope that you will agree they will help make this forum a much more pleasent place.

If you would like to leave any comment on the rules, please do so in this thread. You may also find additional rules in each of the forums in a sticky thread, so do look out for these.

Thanks for your time,
Peter Willis

It'll depend on alot of things, for example:

-whether we think it was in any way deserved
-what exactly was said
-who said it to whom

Here's an example we can work with:
jambu's posts 88 and 90 at this (http://forum.pesinsight.com/showthread.php?t=5562&page=3) thread.

Comments?

does for me i checked it coz i know people always try to link to searches and that and it doesnt work

however what i was directing you to was all of his posts, find a post of his or get him in members list and get to his profile

then view all posts by that user and just have a look

most of it is just stupid ...stupid... (cant think of anything to end this sentance without swearing) stupid.....

Why can't I attach a picture to my post?

Alvin
08-02-2004, 02:42
Because you have not yet reached the post restrictions imposed upon you by our blood-sucking money driven leader. I think you need about 100 posts before you can attach images.

Edgar Davids
08-02-2004, 14:26
Thanks Alvin but how do I get so many posts?

Edgar Davids

Why can't I change my avatar to my own picture?

edgar davids, seriously stop asking the same question. Alvin just told you why. We have a level system. If you were not lazy and read other announcements (which all users should do) you would know this.

"2. No discussion of Warez. This does not include editing or patching. However no discussion of illegal activity such as downloading actual games or distributing illegally copied games is allowed."
Ok call me a grammar whore for this but w/e...
I suggest switching around the words illegally and distributing, because copying a game isnt illegal but distributing a copy is.

Why is a small animated gif not acceptable as a sig??

hitmanuk2k
15-08-2005, 17:12
It's quite irrelevant why... it is a rule. Ergo remove it now.

Sorry mate but it says nothing about not being able to use gifs in the rules

I am TELLING you it is a rule... again its quite irrelevant what it says. Remove it now. Last warning :)

haha, defying the Boss... some people just dont get it...

The reason why they were banned is because when you had 3 people with them on 1 page of a thread it made using this site on Dialup a nightmare...

You should also consider yourself lucky you weren't banned after your last post ;)

Say that I get banned for a day... does that mean 24hrs real time or 24hrs online time... ?

Was wondering...

Guillermo
17-09-2005, 20:26
24 hours real time. As in if you banned now, you'd be able to post again 20:26 tomorrow evening.

Don't mean to piss on any fire(that's dangerous), but say you get banned on a Daylight Saving Time..day. Would you be banned an hour less....I've got too much time on my hands.

I can personally point to many threads on this forum where this rule is not enforced, perhaps because the offenders are admins or the such.
Usually rules apply to everyone not just the 'plebs' :O.

I'm not being funny or trying to piss on anyones bonfire but what's the current status of this rule?

Anything goes in Elite because the norms don't know it exists. Until now anyway...

Yeah ok I suppose. The Elite area isn't some massive secret though is it, anyone can pay for subscription

It would be easy to ban me now immediately again, but before you do I have a question:
Why is ther no place I can apologise or even try to explain why i did what i did?
Why send me a brute message and call me names what was even worse comparing to the innocent but stupid thing i did.
Why please why tell me I had to come back with another name to try to contact someone?

I almost forgot: my banned name is beetwee
My biggest crime: I posted a few innocent messages in i thought old threads to get an avater.

There is a banned users section that you can post in, to explain yourself.

justice
18-11-2007, 17:01
Where is that?
And how do you get there when your banned?
Grtz

Scarface
18-11-2007, 17:18
Only staff members and banned users can see that forum area.

My biggest crime: I posted a few innocent messages in i thought old threads to get an avater.

Having done a quick search, I can recall it being more than that. You made a few completely pointless posts in threads from over a year old, and then made around 12 consecutive spam posts in a football forum thread (majority of which were then deleted) such as "this is fun" "only 11 left to go" "10" "nobody is reading this" etc.

Anyway, i'd recommend logging in to your old account and posting in the banned user section, if you want to have your ban rescinded/decreased, as creating multiple accounts is also against the rules.

justice
18-11-2007, 17:22
I will try to do that but uptill today I still don,t know how.
Because when I try to click the link that page doesn't exist.
So again how do I get there?

Thnks for answering anyway.

EDIT: Already found it, thank you.
