Hoo, looks like I missed out on ALL the funzies while I was gone. Droppings. Well everyone on the 'bridge should read this, and make a post to show they've read it. I don't want anyone to accidentally get booted for stuff they didn't KNOW was wrong behavior.

<mod hat on> UncleCranky, just to clarify: as far as I am aware, no-one who is making even the slightest attempt to contribute would be booted without warning (blatantly obvious spammers, of which we've had a few, are a different matter). I certainly don't believe that we would ban someone just because we didn't agree with what they were saying, for example.
As a broad guideline, if someone is, in the opinion of the moderators, posting in a manner that is detrimental to the forum or its membership, they will be asked to stop, and given reasons as to why their posting is considered detrimental. Such contact may be via PM, in a post to the thread, a combination of the two, or some other method, depending on circumstances. If the behaviour persists following such a request (or requests - being given only a single warning would be very unusual, I think), there are sanctions that can be applied short of banning, and I would hope that we'd use them before wielding the Roofing Beam of BanninationTM.
This is how I see it working, but ultimately, Vin makes the final policy calls for the Trollbridge. ProfGremlin and I are trusted to keep things running smoothly when he's not around, and to make decisions as we think best, but Vin can over-ride us if he thinks it necessary.
It's very rare that any action is needed from any of us, though. This is one of the nicest and friendliest places that I've participated in, and people mostly police themselves. Just what a lazy moderator like myself wants to see. <mod hat off>

its been three years since this was even an issue. i got no problem with necorposting, but its seems somewhat irrelevant to even bring this thread back up again.

Naw, devadasi, I'm just now learning about it, and not in detail. I've been mostly off for two years now. But something BAD musta happened. I'm just saying we should have people read it, so they know there ARE things not tolerated here on the 'Bridge. Not many things, mind ye, but...THINGS.... like ... that thing right there! Oh, wait, I know THAT thing. Never mind. Just my pain meds again. Shoulda had more coffee with them.

I appreciate the support and hope you find this to be a great place for T&T discussion. It was pretty calm until recently and hopefully has returned to that state again! :-) I joined this year, and I do think it is a great place to hang; the people are nice and share my love for the hobby, so yeah keep the forum going!
