DT Hall of Shame - Ban List

[OPSSG]

Both Zbigniew and GRapp have been given 21-day holidays to enable these guys to read the Forum Rules. Reading and observing the Forum Rules is not optional. If either of you fail to observe them again, harsher administrative sanctions will be applied.

Perm banned optiontips.in, ashiyanayoga and c84362890 for spam. Also perm banned fairy123 for a series of one-liner spam.

hasta security permanently banned for opening his postings here with an advertisement.

Post & thread removed.

 

[Bonza]

d_taddei2 and AP0080 have both been banned due to an inability to support their claims of prior intelligence and military service, respectively.

I can't emphasise enough that people should stop pretending to be something they're not, as it's very apparent and there's really no point - it won't get anyone any respect nor will it bring anything but trouble and subsequent banning.

 

[swerve]

krishvandam banned forever for opening his postings here with a succession of nonsense posts to get his post count up to where he could post a spam link.

Posts removed.

W3-A Sokol has been perm banned for converting all Philippine related threads (air force, navy and modernization threads) into news ribbons.

There was already a member that was perm banned for converting all Philippine related threads into news ribbons. W3-A Sokol was doing the same undesired activity. Either he did not read the threads he posted in or he refused to heed prior Mod warnings against converting threads news ribbons in the thread. Either way, the Mod Team are not going to tolerate this sort of behaviour.

Some survival tips for new members:

(i) do not post one-liners;
(ii) do not convert threads into news ribbons;
(iii) do not make multiple sequential posts in the same thread with the sole objective of increasing post count;
(iv) you must discuss the topic on-hand with with a comment/opinion that is more than two-lines and if you have nothing intelligent to say, don't post; and
(v) when posting facts to support your comment/opinion, cite your source(s) (by typing the article title, publication, author and page number), if you want to avoid a source challenge from the Mod Team. Further, the Mod Team is aware that you cannot post links in the first 10 posts.

Remi16 and Mr Blister both perm banned for spam by the Mod Team.

Andri F perm banned for spam like posts that test the patience of the Mod Team, in part due to his consistent failure to heed prior Mod Team warnings and his failure to provide relevant sources to support his consistently discredited opinions.

Ozymandias has been banned permanently for highly offensive insults directed at two other members of the site.

The mod team takes a very dim view of these kinds of personal and unnecessary attacks, and I hope this serves as an example to everyone that if you have an issue with another poster, that you resolve it in a civil fashion and if necessary with the aid of the mod team. Disgusting abuse such as that spewed forth by Ozymandias is totally unacceptable and will result in an immediate and permanent ban.

 

[OPSSG]

Resolute banned for 14 days for continued trolling (and ignoring a Mod Warning), here; and later perm banned for coming back to troll with another handle.
