It would be nice to have a stickied thread in FI with a list of everyone who's banned or vacationed. Lately there have been a lot of vacations in P&N, and it's hard to keep track of who's around and who's not. I know it might sound burdensome to the mods, but they could just have one list of permabans, and one list of vacations, and add/delete from the latter whenever someone is banned.

Any chance of this happening?

At first it may seem like a good idea DonVito, but when someone gets a "permaban," it's for a good reason & I'd rather not see that persons username in an stickied thread here in FI forever IMO. Some people might take pride in that.

I'm in favor of nominating people to be banned. Then a poll would be posted in FI for each proposed member, and if 80% or more vote them out, then so be it.

There are some people on here that are extremely disruptive and rude, yet they somehow go on unnoticed and are never dealt with. Polls like this would make the mod's lives easy.

Wow. That would get out of hand so fast. This forum is populated by way too many juvenile members for that to ever work.

Maybe we need a jury of Elite members to deal with these things then. All I know is that something needs to be done about some of the members of this forum.

To know who are no longer here.

I would think that would be obvious?

There are already mods doing that, why involve the Elites?

If you have a problem with a member, why not PM the mods or post it here in FI?

No kidding. It's an internet message board afterall, nonsense is in its nature. Why'd you need ban list? So you can looks at it every once in a while and feel good about yourself?
