I was temp banned once. About 15 minutes after I had posted, I realized my mistake, and went to go edit it out. The Mods beat me to it... I also had one warning, but idr what that was for.

I got banned once for a post that absolutely deserved punishment (see my sig), but, to be honest, was hilarious enough it was probably worth it.

So... I've been banned, and I have no fear of getting banned, because I know what's over the line and that I'll most likely deserve it if it happens.

I got a temp ban, but for a good reason, so here are few tips how not to get banned:
Dont post anything offensive
Dont post 1 line posts
Dont post anything stupid
Dont post in all caps
Dont post really stupid memes as your one line post

and most importantly;
Dont ask for it.

I love the mods on this site. The volume of retardedness they keep out is really, honest-to-god, remarkable

I never really worry about getting banned because I never do something that would require me to get banned and I feel that all my post are appropriate and not just random span.

I've no fear of being banned. If there is a discussion I'd like to comment on, of course I'm going to think my post through so that I can clearly convey my message. Granted, I don't post too frequently (I think I have like 1.8 posts per day or something like that) but have recently started posting a bit more.

IIRC, I've been "warned" once but it was simply because the mod read my comment before thoroughly reading the OP and thought my post was completely off-topic. He PM'd me later and apologized for the false warning.

I agree. I've been warned and tempbanned several times (t.t) but looking back it was fair. I usually go into a thread that isn't meant for me and start telling the people they are bad that they do something etc. Keep it up

I've yet to be warned, however I've exercised extreme caution when posting on these forums.

I find these forums to be more knowledge oriented than entertainment oriented. When I feel like a laugh or if I want to kick my shoes off, I'll visit the less morally attractive sites on the web.

Nothing wrong per se about TL's rules. It will deter many from posting, and often times it might keep a small portion of people who want to be a part of the community from engaging with others, but for the most part, it helps to maintain the demographic here and I enjoy that.

Bah, I was hoping Christmas came early.
And I have to agree with Kennigit, I used to proofread my posts 3-4 times. Now it's just 1-2 times

Honestly, I've stayed relatively safe since most of my posts come in one or two threads anyway (hello fighting game thread people). Had a topic closed though (that one time I didn't use the search function first, but no biggie)

Common sense, being polite, reading the rules and there's really nothing to fear. The mods here as far as I've seen are actually better than most of the sites I go to anyway so if I get banned or warned, I probably deserved it.

I was once warned for criticising Israel and anyone who supports them. And I have been banned in both of the big ban waves, the beta roulette and the Kelly disaster. To be quite honest I didn't expect it at all with the exception I suppose of beta roulette, but that was pretty hilarious. I don't fear being banned generally because most of my posts consist of AHHHHHHHHHHH (Insert awesome player here) HWAITING!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and other hype in LR threads xD. That and TL mods are generally awesome.

No, I've been warned maybe twice and I've been posting here for a long time. I think the rules are pretty simple to understand if you read the 10 commandments and aren't an idiot.

The fear of moderating unjustly is worse than the fear of getting punished by a moderator (in my experience at least).

I bumped a old Vindictus thread yesterday and that little box came up and said "The last post in this thread is over 2 months old are you sure you want to bump this"

It was the only time I was really apprehensive about a post. But basically I try and stay low key, stay out of balance/cheese/lag whine and I have been safe so far, but I am just now hitting a year here.

Its easy not to get warned/banned. Follow the TL.net Ten Commandments and you should never have to worry.

I always facepalm whenever I see a post starting with "I will probably get banned for this..." and lo and behold I scroll down just to see "user has been banned for this post" in all red every time. But it still doesnt stop people from doing it :\

As long as you write in a nice and polite way and follow the rules, then its very hard to get ban. TL was a lot stricter waay waaaay back in history and the fear of the banhammer was absolute. But now , meh just be nice and you are ok. If you get a warning, its just TL staff giving you another chance to be a better person
