Yup, sneakerd is most correct.

Of course, I'd happily give my address if someone wants to even imply a threat to a member of my team. The mods/admins here work very hard to give everyone a great experience here on this site. Those that I have met in person aren't simply keyboard commando's - they LIVE it.

The new rules would make a LOT of sense if you were having to clean up the messes by folks who don't meet the 15 post requirement or listen to the complaints from other members about the messes caused by those folks.

It's simple, the bar is set but it's set nice and low so it's easily attainable. The 15 post requirement is supposed to help folks learn enough about the site and what is expected before they go into the Trading Post and start making a fool of themselves and work for the mod's.

Forgiven - by me. Now, move an and enjoy the site and remember the few rules we have are there for ALL of us. Once you've been here longer you will certainly come to appreciate them.

'Nuf said.
