there is a system very similar to the one you state in operation , as most of you will know one member has been removed from site and technicaly banned and others have been banned in the past , warnings have been issued and do appear with a user warning which stays on for a month continued distruption of the site or abusive pms to moderators will not be tollerated Richard does his best to be fair in all cases as do the moderators .When you join the site you agree to the rules , i hope everyone enjoys the site after all were all making and meeting new friends and its a great way to learn for novices and old hands alike and change views ideas and theorys . Post are removed to be checked by Richard , he has the final say so if a moderator has conficting bias opinions then both sides are view unbiasly and dealt with in a simpathetic way if you recieve abusive or threatening pms we are happy to deal with them , but members are urged not to send them in the first instance if you feel angry perhaps a short break to compose yourself and weigh things up as in most cases things are typed in without the thought about wording and may and could come across in a way untended , i hope we all continue to enjoy this site , rember the members of the site make it what it is enjoy
