Here since 2001 and 0. I guess the rest of you are doing it wrong.

I have been banned once so maybe they reset the count. I wouldn't be proud of it though. Basically means you've been a pain the mods ass and they don't need that.
 
14. A few for posting a sexy picture of myself in hume and many more because I told someone "What a stupid fucking thread heh heh heh, I said fuck..."

Funny thing is I was just playing along with his sig and was just repeating a joke made in another thread on ATOT. I didn't notice that his sig lead to a trade forum.

OH and the < friendly mod> that gave me 5 points for it, reversed it, and gave me one extra point (total 6) for posting without my email showing in a trade thread.

This is why I rarely set foot in the garage or For Sale/Trade.

Why do we get infractions for not having email in fs/ft. Its a obvious mistake and we get an infractions.

Does anyone actually read the rules?

Yeah, It looks like that got squashed also. Guess they didn't like some of the zingers he had regarding perk's dui, and other things.
 
An expired 1 pointer for posting personal information, a permanent 4 pointer for racism, and a warning. Three one-week vacations in addition (quote pyramiding (I was the third story), promoting violence against women, and something I can't remember which makes me think I may have never had a third vacation).
 
none. i try hard to get banned by posting some insane shit but for some reason, the mods don't really bother me for it.
it's like i'm invisible to the mods or something.

I got one from quoting someone else's babe picture in a thread. How lame is that?

Same here, but oh well. I've had moments of being drunk and going wild saying fuck more than necessary a couple of times so I guess it evens out.
 
think I may have gotten one in fs/ft for not having email visable but if I did, it's expired...no others.

Got banned one drunken night years ago just for the hell of it (think it was nested quotes or something after mod said not to...I know, such a rebel)

so reading the thread from that banned poster it seemed he was upset that he got an infraction. i just checked and noticed I have 42 infractions :\ about 93% weren't my fault either.

Most of us got infractions for it because the forum changeover deleted our FS/T email information from our profile. Apparently it was easier to give everyone infractions than to just let us know.

Yeah, I knew as soon as I saw that thread that it wouldn't be around for long.
 
I got one for offering services to a poster who'd paid 5k for a computer worth 1k and another for posting a low res pic of a chick in a bikini without a NSFW tag. I gave myself a 30 day vacation to escape the children after that one.
 
4 infractions -- 5 points. I got them all within a month or so. Very bizarre time that was.
 
How are you guys checking to see how many infractions you have? Always been curious how this is done.

Thanks in advance.

Yeh, like the GIANT sticky we left up for months and months and months wasn't enough fair warning? We Pm'ed people until we were blue in the face and people still didn't update their info. It's not our fault nobody bothers to read or comprehend the rules or stickies.

They sure as hell do find the ont thing we ever do wrong and pick that apart though. 🙄
