whats wrong with IDIOT?.... is it a swear word.?...

tell us john.s. is it only swear words that should get someone banned...

I am under the impression a person gets banned because someone complained to the mods..

now if you are saying they get banned via the swear filter....then we should all know about that...

I am assuming dickhead is deemed slightly worse than idiot..

we are talking about those PERSONAL attacks are we not?

May I suggest:

1. Calling Politicians and anybody else in public life rude names on this Forum is normal. In fact you have to, otherwise you look ineffectual.

2. Calling other Posters here rude names is also normal, within reason.

3. Venturing into calling a Posters' FAMILY rude names as a slight is, usually, worth a ban on most Forums.

If you can't get your payback via boyish slights, cease and desist attacking the poster's family or you will get a holiday. I think that is fair .... UNLESS the poster introduces their FAMILY ........ then no holds barred. Wink

Yes. I am looking at YOU, who knows who he is. Wink

In this case this particular member bought his own mum into the conversation with ...
'Don't like to say my mum is dumb or anything' , the reply of 'She must be dumb she had you' was, I think, rather mild ..

if he didn't want anyone to mention his mum, he shouldn't have bought her into the conversation

If you dish out personal abuse to other members and either the mods notice or it's brought to our attention, be prepared to take a holiday. There's no point whinging about it - just don't do it.

One post is hardly stalking. Or are you talking about the abuse of demented looking emoticons? They bother me too, but unfortunately Freediver doesn't let the moderators dish out the permanent bans that they deserve.

Okay....but why did you ignore the abuse contained in that post of last evening. Is it not personal abuse?

As for freediver's restrictions on the GMs......don't you reckon the Members ought to know of them so that we Members do not easily lose respect for the GMs who seem to be either inconsistent (St George has now been banned for four days for referring to someone as an 'idiot'.....yet I can be freely abused as 'Lawyer's bootlace' and 'brain dead') or totally ignorant of the Rules. Is skippy's signature still an external link in blatant breach of the Rules?

(Edit: Indeed it is.....I've just checked. The external link is still his signature. Were you unaware of that?)
