penalties

I was wondering if I had any penalties, and a thought occured to me.

Many people always complain that their account was suspended and they had no idea they had so many penalties against them.

Why can't we have a spot when we log on... like under account info .... where we can click to see if we have any penalties against us?

I understand that this may require some work, but in the end it will inform (or should for those that pay attention) each person about any penalties and take away any excuse of "I did not know".

This is just my thought though and like everyone else my opinion is only mine and many will disagree with it.

^good idea

Lazy moderating.

If you have a penalty against you, a moderator or site admin should tell you so. Every place you visit on the 'net will have different standards that they apply. For instance, the site I run expresses that you must NEVER swear. But I'm not so goddamned spiritless that I will chide people for swearing when debate gets hot: I just edit it after the fact and send them a polite reminder of the rules.

Rules should be in place to get people to behave like people. They shouldn't be enforced because people act like people.

Good mods will get that...
