Ban list amnesty

Bmthrules · Dec 17, 2011

A ban list reset is needed, it would increase traffic and posting.

Oh and I mean a complete reset, people already know who the major scammers are/were and there reputation/scam reports are all the "warning" others need to not do any deals with them.

Input, feedback, buttmadness all are gladly accepted.

Don't really see this happening

I agree with the suggestion, but I feel that a scammer award should be added, and given to those previously banned for scamming.

Would there be multiple awards per case? Sounds nifty.

Should be the size of 4 awards and say SCAMMER in huge red letters.

I want 3.

I'll assume you're being sarcastic. @The Award: Cases could be noted in the description, or you could suggest that TE adds a scams.php page that's similar to bans.php. (along with the award)

Then you'll have the trolls that will scam in an attempt to get the award. I just think this will cause so much problems and drama it really wouldn't be worth the rise in activity that may come from it

Where exactly did I say that all scammers will get the award? You do know what amnesty means, right?

Even if they did that, they would be permanently banned. So what would be the point of trying to get the award. :tongue2:

It's a quote from my original post.

Oxide · Dec 17, 2011

Chewbaka · Dec 17, 2011

If anything like this shall happen, it should just be a userbar.

That would just be confusing and overblown.

We both know that makes no sense.

Chewbaka · Dec 17, 2011

And how would that be confusing?

Buddy_mybb_import10515 · Dec 17, 2011

This is why:

am·nes·ty [am-nuh-stee] Show IPA noun, plural -ties, verb, -tied, -ty·ing.
noun

2.
Law . an act of forgiveness for past offenses, especially to a class of persons as a whole.

PS: Ignoring half of my post does wonders.

There's a problem with this whole amnesty... I would only take place to old bans.. not recent if it WERE to happen.

I was talking more about the idea of the awards. Sorry for the confusion.

Why would I say awards would be confusing if I was the one who suggested awards?

Then why would you say a userbar would be more confusing if it essentially the same thing as a userbar?
