Vouch thread punishments

this was back before they wern't allowed.

 

I wholeheartedly agree. This is a superb idea.

 

I totally support. Keep those vouch threads out of SF!

 

I Think you should make a Topic for vouch threads. Really it would solve alot of problems. Ive already made a thread in 1 topic below this.

 

people will stil make vouch threads they are just desperate

 

Vouches are nearly useless unless they're from a trusted member / staff...and if you have enough vouches from these members that you can't fit them I'm willing to bet you don't need any more

 

Good idea, theres a vouch section on your profile for a reason!

 

Unfortunately, this could lead to you getting in trouble irl
Infractions and bans are much less lethal.

I don't care how many vouches you have, it's against spam forum rules to post a piece of crap vouch thread anymore, yet so many people don't read the rules and thus break them.

How about you head over to the spam forum right now? Take a look at all the rule-breaking vouch threads on the first page. At the moment, all this does is earn your vouch thread a lock, but I believe you should be punished for completely ignoring the rules due to your own incompetence of reading the rules in the first place.

 

i believe a warning at first, many dont understand why they cant post em there,

 

They should know the rules before they post, so I beleive they shouldn't be given the luxury of a warning.

+ Change your avatar, you stole it from Tgump and I thought you were him for a second.

 

Why would someone even post vouch threads now that you can put vouches in your profile?

 

agree

 

I think they shouldn't be done with alltogether, just have a private forum ( like spam section where posts dont count) and have vouch thread.

 

Because, unfortunately, you can only put a few vouches on your profile, and many people tend to have more vouches then your profile can offer.

That's why people continue to make these rule breaking vouch threads.

Your suggestion is on the do not suggest list.

 

my bad wrong forum how do i get vouches?

 

You can service other users, and the other users can vouch you in return.

 

I support this. If you have can't read the rules then you deserve an infraction.

 

How to save your vouches:
Open up apple works or microsoft word or another word processor
Copy and paste your vouches
add vouches when gained.

When someone asks for your vouches post them in your thread or pm them to the person.

Save your most important vouches in your profile.

 

The new rule was only brought in the end of October, I'm not willing to hand out two point infractions because they missed the sticky. Yes, it's their own fault if they don't read the rules.

However, having a new rule in place, and giving members less than a month to "get to know the rule" before giving out infractions is ridculus. There are maybe two/three new vouch threads a day... they are starting to get to "know the rule". I'll have a look at implenting some deterrents; such as infractions about the beginning of December (if it causes a huge problem); at the moment this isn't a major problem that your all making out it is.

 

I agree, your profile is a perfect spot to put vouches anyway, that's where they should be.
