We urge everyone to go over the Guidelines & Etiquette of our Forums if you have not done so already. If you've already read them maybe you'd consider going over them again. These guidelines are aimed at fostering a welcoming environment (for people of all ages).

The first guideline is clearly directed at aggressive behaviour, which will not be tolerated. We have decided to go to a "3 Strikes" system, which will lead to the blocking of a user on the third strike.
Maliciousness and offensive posts will not be taken lightly, but in the end, it is up to us to determine what constitutes as a strike.

Thanks.
