Can you elaborate with this one? Were you bumping your own thread, or bumping other's threads that you read?

I was bumping somebody else thread...I guess you are only allowed to bump 4 FS threads within a 4 Hr period. I bumped 5 that time and so I got the infraction.

I have one. I didn't even know there was an infraction system till I got it :D



Arrr! Me Maties! Lift the skin up, and put into the bunt the slack of the clews (not too taut), the leech and foot-rope, and body of the sail; being careful not to let it get forward under or hang down abaft. Then haul your bunt well up on the yard, smoothing the skin and bringing it down well abaft, and make fast the bunt gasket round the mast, and the jigger, if there be one, to the tie.
At least a sniper didn't get a headshot on you.

I have a ton of BS infractions from the whole focus group war thing a couple of weeks ago... waiting for them to expire before going after those @#$%?&*@#$%?&* again. You can never put down the truth.

Hey I might get an infraction for this post :p I know I have gotten half a dozen for less!

Damn. I sometimes go on a bumping binge there from time to time. If I read your thread, I bump. lol

On HardForum I didn't even get a warning or infraction. It was just permaban. I think it was because I said, "Obviously the best Diablo-like game is Diablo." Guy's a douche for banning me for that.

Anyway, I have 1 point infraction(expired) and a 0 point infraction(yellow) for posting in the mod forum. :p

rightfully so... you posted advocating theft..

they have soft serve ice cream and cones next to the bbq sauce vats and soda machines that is free. i dont think you even have to buy anything, but they have great waffle fries.

WRONG! that restaurant has free ice cream. they dont even sell it. that is their gimmick. i had been in there many times and seen a whole room full of people eating ice cream and didnt realize until i asked the cashier how much it was, that it was FREE. free, in the same way that peanuts and cinamon rolls are free at texas roadhouse. after i was told this i decided to pass it along here.

free yes... for PAYING CUSTOMERS.. who have already bought something... it's not free for people to walk in off the street and take and go on their merry way.

go into texas roadhouse... and ask if you can have some cinnamon rolls to go....without buying anything..... watch how fast they throw you out.

i dont know, ive personally never gone in there and not bought anything and if youre already in the restaurant, chances are youre there to get a meal, and not just grub on free stuff

that is not what you said tho... the thread was locked, and you were infractioned for stating:

i dont think you even have to buy anything.

Otherwise... why not post... "burger king gives you free napkins with your order"

I got one for calling mike gayner a name.

I called him a *what English people call cigarettes* which is really naughty word.

I think that the punishment system on the old atot was better cause you could still pm people and watch the forums.

i said "I DONT THINK...". if they thought the members here were so stupid that i needed to rephrase something then so be it, but to just ban someone for a month without even emailing is ridiculous. the point was to let people know it was available, since even i, an occasional customer, didnt realize i was welcome to take some. i doubt anyone believes that anyone read the post, and drove to dickeys just to "steal" an ice cream cone

Your BS reasoning didn't fly then and it doesn't fly now and you only got a week off, not a month. :rolleyes:
