SA rarely bans members. When we do, you can still access the site, you just can't post notes in the Forum. Bans are determined by the mods and admins and can be temporary or permanent. We don't like to ban people. Avoid the behaviors below and you'll never have a problem:
YOU CAN BE BANNED FOR:
* Spamming the site. Don't post your Viagra links here.
* Ignoring posted rules, especially if you are a repeat offender. An example would be posting multiple vote requests when you have been a site member for less than the required two weeks.
* Inappropriate language. There is a site filter that swaps out the more obvious naughty words but a creative troublemaker can still find ways to be insulting. Don't do it.
* Attacking other members. You can disagree with another person, but if you start getting mean and insulting, you'll get yourself banned. If you feel that you have been attacked, report it.
* Posting inflammatory comments that may not be directed at anyone in particular but are offensive to our members. An example would be a post where you point out that you don't trust _________ people because everyone knows they are dirty, Godless scoundrels.
* Using SA's personal message (PM) system to harass or spam other members. If you feel that you have received inappropriate communications, report it.
* If you are promoting another site, read the SA rules so that you can work with us to draw attention to your website. SA is a great site, but it's also a business. Work with SA, and we both benefit. Try to get around our site requirements and you'll get yourself banned.
We don't like to ban people. We really don't. Please don't put yourself in a position where we have to do it. Thank you.
