Timeout Time

[rogerthat]

With the recent time out being handed out to our famous green can drinking orange man posting member, I’m just curious if the mods don’t mind laying out the options they wield as options to members for breaking the rules. The timeout is a new one to me. I also know they can effectively boot us. Does that delete your profile or is that a separate action? I also know a member that swears his access gets throttled such as he can log in and read but posting becomes impossible or laborious. Mods, care to disclose all the ways you can punish us for being naughty? I’m just curious how this stuff all works. Thanks!

I am genuinely curious. Sorry if my attempt at humor failed Hank

I know a couple folks that have alternate accounts now because they think they’re other account was being monitored it some fashion. What’d Kurt do? link me !?

Is it totally subjective? Like if a new guy did the same thing would he be banned entirely? Is it only because ol Bozone has been here for 15 years that he gets a temporary action?

Don't be a dick.

If that isn't one of the general rules to every forum it should be.

 

[Flatbrimmer]

Posting a picture of trump when he won the presidential election is not grounds for a ban and i KNOW Randy wouldn’t ban him for a photograph of a person. He’s too big on free speech and stuff. Surely he said something off the richter…. lol

Your username and posts don't go away if you get banned. You just end up with "banned" under your name instead of "Well-known member".

The guys with "Deleted userXXXX" are people that requested to be deleted. Not people that were banned.

Generally even new members get a warning or two before being banned. Unless they have some super software features that other forums don't there is no way they are throttling guys so they can't post. If they are banned they could actually view threads without being logged in but they can't post.

Awful lot of speculation here.

Never met the man with the green can in person but I hope he ends up back on here. It'll be way less fun without him.

I heard it was a GREAT morning.

Got banned/timed out by Kim years back...seamouth.

I personally find the passive aggressive comments/commenters are a bigger issue to the HT community than Ole green cans ever could be. You also have to weigh all their content on the scale. For example Buzz can be a dick to people (sorry buzz, but it's true), but he's incredibly knowledgeable about public land management, is a helluva an activist for public land hunting, and he contributes several great hunting stories every year. Versus, we have a crap ton of posters than I swear don't spend 3 days a year doing anything productive, only login in to stir the shitpot, and damn sure never seem to do anything to support Randy's comments, that the reason he have this place is to support conservation efforts and information. They should be on the short leash.

Where do I get the #freeGreenhorn sticker?
