Accidental rule violations

[StewB]

This morning I accidentally broke one of the rules and had a post deleted. (The rule is quite sensible--the post should have been deleted and I'm glad the mods were on top of it.)

Is there are number of "strikes" after which one gets banned? I didn't see anything about it in the FAQs (unless I missed it).

(If there's not a public answer to this, that's fine too.)

In any case, thank you to all the mods for keeping an eye on things and for making B&B such a great site!

No sir, there's no specific "rule", or strike count.
Generally speaking, it's folks attitude that matters most.
Everyone makes mistakes, it's how we follow up that shows a persons character and that's what really matters.

Thank you!

I'm not that bright... I had to PM Phil to be directed to the TOS link at the bottom of each page... I was looking all the way down into the dark section.... but it's on the right hand side at the bottom... in the slightly darker section (I'm color blind so I have no idea what color it is.... but on the right you see " Contact Us, Terms of Service, Privacy Policy and Help"......

I just read the TOS.... I had neglected to do that.

You're in a BIG club!

This. Coupled with an understanding that mods are humans too and, if in doubt, communicating courteously and respectfully is the way issues are resolved, not with grandstanding and throwing your toys from the cot.

Wow, first time I ever read the TOS and I'm a member 2 years tomorrow. 2 years, it seems much longer

Yes, please read the Terms of Use. I wouldn't have broken one of the rules if I had been more familiar with them (true story, doggone!). But still, ignorance is not an excuse.

To the mods: Thanks for letting me stay around, and thanks for making this such a great community!

We have terms of use? Never knew that. Maybe I should read them, just to be safe.

Rule 23.2.1 is to never contradict the notion that the Veg smells like anything other than a powdery floral scent.

I just read the rules 4 times and wrote them out twice in longhand. For the life of me, I couldn't find rule 23.2.1.

I did however learn the ToU very well .
