ZevN, I'm pretty sure you can change your IP by having your router off for a while. Then you just make a new account.

Yes... I agree its kinda harsh but it worked for that other game right? maybe if CortexC gets a bunch of people it would be a good idea to have that

Also didn't weasel say they would get a bunch of warnings first?

A bunch of bans, actually. And the only issue I find with this is that you have to buy the game to be part of the forum. Hell, not even Crysis does that, and it's owned by ♥♥♥♥.

Of course we're trying to welcome new members. Then they can ♥♥♥♥ off or pay up once they find out that typing using your fists instead of your fingers isn't recommended.

It's simple really, and I like the idea - Hi welcome to the forums, abide by these rules or we'll kick you out and you'll have to pay to get back in.

I love these forums but personally I'd never pay to get back in if I got banned. Ever.
Not even a penny.

The thinking is:

(a) You are such a knob we don't want you to come back. Ever. Unless you pay $10.
or,
(b) You are not a knob and you never pay.

Most people fall into the (B) category. Even the more brash people here right now.

10 warns per ban, 6th Bans = Permaban. Permaban = pay $5 for a Data Review*.



*Data decides.

Just an idea.

I don't think it would really matter, we rarely have a permaban.

Sadly, the most effective to make the rules will be respected its transmit fear through bans.
