Public posts on the other way are not meant just for my consumption, they are meant to undermine me and/or what I said and are intended for public consumption. Therefore I and other similarly situated forummers would want to have a right of reply and how are we going to do that if we have activated the ignore function and can't see his post? Can't you trust forummers with at least 700 rep points to help you to police the site, 10 infraction points and they are out?
I admit that with so many clones, it is easy to create a new nick and pump up to 700 rep points within even a few days if one is desperate and then duly proceed to abuse the infraction system. However, this can be easily pre-empted by imposing a further condition - at least 500 posts and 9 months after registration of the nick.
Can you please be so kind as to consider my suggestions.![]()
The idea behind the infraction system is for senior members to help out. However, in reality, I found that many senior members are nothing but bullies who set out to silence those who disagreed with them.
The forum is not perfect. No forum is and no country or society is either. If you don't like the way sammyboy is run, I suggest you emigrate to some other forum or start your own.
