Policy on Banned Rejoiners? (1 Viewer)

[Lhyviathan]

I was just wondering what the site's policy is on people who are banned, and then join under another account.

Do you also ban the new account?

It depends on the reason for which they were banned.

yes apparently thats what mack did...

 

[wrong_turn]

yeah thats what i heard as well. but can they be unbanned?

What's the point of asking to be banned? (Other than to prevent other people using the account on BoS and posting rubbish and getting banned anyway).

I think one of the reasons was that the account user wanted to stay right away from BoS during their HSC course. The site was very distracting.

Yes they can be unbanned... what I gather from flyin anyway.

yep that's right, they can.

mack was banned? has he been unbanned?

hey, i always wanted to be banned during the hsc, no one told me i could ACTUALLY be banned and unbanned. meh, i got my uai anyway

mack asked to be banned.
he'll come crawling back sooner or later

 

[bubz :D]

yes, users can be banned if they literally ask for it eg, winston, mack.
they can ask to be unbanned at any time, we'll welcome them back with open arms

however if a user is banned because of their behaviour on bos, they can also be unbanned if they appeal to a mod/admin explaining why they deserved to be unbanned

Oh yeah..and I don't think anyone can really stop u from rejoining under another username. Unless you have a set IP?

yeah i believe they can ban ur IP?
but regardless u need a new email each time u create a new accy

The problem with IP ban though is that it doesn't work for users on dial-up, hence the ban often placed on usernames (eg. aj)

haha........ we can only wish

Most ADSL plans have a dynamic IP as well so banning the IP wouldn't work. I'mnot sure about cable.

Theres no need to get technical about how they are banned or what nickname or what IP addresses they have...just know that they will get banned :uhhuh:
