Infraction = breaking a rule
Warning = beein warned of for example breaking a rule

2 totally different words with different meanings.

What a load of bollocks, this place has been great for years as it is but recently I have seen some very silly moderating and now we get an 'infractions' system. What next? No swearing because kids might be reading? No references to sex or pornography? We have already seen stupidity reigning supreme with the closure of threads discussing how to set up Utorrent, no illegal links were posted and Utorrent has 100% legal uses but still the threads get closed.

Deebs, if you read this please please please don't let the politically correct brigade take over FreddysHouse or influence it's direction. These forums have a been a haven of sanity and humour to it's many loyal members for years and changes like this combined with some silly moderating are only going to do damage.

I got moderated like a million times because I posted they way I postd on Q3W forums.

And now they are starting to moderate this forum even more like a kindergarten.

Fun fun fun, FUCK FUCKIDIFUCK FUCK FUCK

What they need to do is...build bigger walls around the OT, stuff all the bad people with naughty posts in here and take 'em out after a week and ask them if they want to stay or will they be good :D

Yeah that was totally my point: to win the mods over... I couldn't care less tbh and yeah I might be immature when I post on a forum, but I bothers me more that people take everything seriousely...

I actually agree with you MaCaBr3. In some things i guess...

Shouldn't make it a too nanny state.

World's in enough trouble with all the PC cr*p around, need some safehavens where freedom of speech and all that american mumbo is allowed.

Worst is the rasicm PC brigade;

White people only yell the rasicm card(Shut up maaaaaaan).

All it does is set things back, 'cause the faster we start "dissing" about every race, person and religion in equal amounts, the faster we can really be in a rasicm free world.

Only ze naughty ones who got spanked, like Gamah and Bugz, can see them.

Much like warnings.

If you can't see them, don't worry, it's a good thing.

I seem to have accidentally started a war with the off-topic crew firing the first shells of flame.

Lets stop it.

This is how it will end.

OT'rs will whine we are being censored.
Jupitus will tell us the forum would be better off with out us
Someone will comment how there's no forum without users and what will jupitus power trip on when his forum is dead.
Someone will try an make an irrelevant funny
someone will post "LOL!" to that funny.
Someone will say how Jupitus will lock the thread because hes a N**i
Jupitus will claims he is not a n**i pointing the fact he hasn't locked the thread.

etc.

I fucked Deeb's mom once wonder if that will get me banned.
Ok,

that comment has no fucking place on these forums giving the fact that my mum is actually terminally ill.

For that you will get a ban that I will determine the length of, I will instruct all the mods to alert me to any alt accounts you may create.

I am a fairly moderate guy and generally let people get on with stuff, but sometimes you always find one idiot that wants to push a little too hard.

There's a fine line in being borderline insulting(which is usually let slid) and insulting the owner of the freakin' forums.

Sorry to hear about your mum Deebs, hope she gets atleast moderetly better(i'm guessing terminal is just that...). Might have commented it on another part, but can't hurt to say it again.

Chodax and the rest of you,

let me get this straight.

There has been a warning system in place at FH for well over a year but with the upgrade to 3.6.x it was deemed unnecessary and to use the inbuilt infraction system.

The upside is that when a mod gives you a warning/infraction you are also sent a private message detailing why you have received one.

We have never censored any swearing apart from the 4 letter word that starts with a C, no need to post it, you all know it.

If you can point me to the threads that were closed in what you think were incorrect then I will look into it. Remember, if you ever feel someone has overstepped their mark, send me a private message and I will look into it.

Don't forget n!gger! :D

Anywho, on a more serious note, moderating is rather cool here - I mean, we can get away with quite alot of things here just because mods know that most of the things said aren't meant bad :)

Racism is a nono anywhere on these forums. I don't want that here ever.

Yes, you do have quite a free reign on what can be said and what cannot not, I hope that your comment didn't imply that I should have let macabr3 off as he meant it as a joke. I certainly didn't take it as a joke.

Not at all, merely pointing out that moderating is very decent in my opinion and when someone does get banned - such as Macabre - a line has been crossed.

Also, sorry to hear about your mother. Must be tough times.

If i had to comment on the banning, which i don't liek doing too much since mods are mods and that's it, it would be that don't be too harsh on him as i doubt he knew about your mother.

Then again...knowing maCaBr3...might have not stopped him :eek7:
