Ginger Furball has been banned for accumulation of infraction points resulting in a ban. His final infraction was for continual disobedience. He has continued to post in a manner detrimental to the forum atmosphere (including overt attempts to bait and unprovoked personal attacks) consistently over an extended period despite warnings from moderators and after a lengthly discussion we have decided the forum and the poster would mutually benefit from a one month ban.
E: The ban and final infraction was not a direct result of any single post or offence, but rather a collective result of a consistent trend of poor and unhelpful posting.

Bun has received a one-week ban for an accumulation of infraction points. This is due to receiving infractions for posts which were considered to be trolling and/or baiting other members, as well as an infraction received for ignoring repeated moderator requests not to post using text speak.

GeraintIsMyHero has been banned for one week because of infraction point accumulation. The infraction that tipped him over the limit was for abusing another member, and the offending post can be found here;http://www.cricketweb.net/forum/2645286-post30.html

GeriantIsMyHero has been banned for six months for accumulating infraction points for "Continual disobedience", "Ignoring moderator instructions" and "Lack of respect for, insulting, or harassment of other members" reasons. This has seen a "Serial offender" infraction issued. We did not come at this decision lightly. As a long standing and popular member, we appreciate the value that GIMH brings to the forum. We all understood that he has very strong feelings about certain members and the moderation of the forum. Over the course of the past few weeks, many in the moderation team reached out to him to discuss our point of view. It was our hope that though we may disagree in the end, GIMH would at least respect the rules and policies of the site. Instead, he continued to break the rules and targeted and harassed members he disagreed with. After his last infraction, he asked for a voluntary 6 months ban from the site, which we denied. We did not feel it appropriate to ban someone for any length of time when they hadn’t broken any rules. Unfortunately it became clear through his communication and posts afterwards that GIMH was determined to get himself banned from the site. Since he continued to break the rules and post in a manner that was extremely detrimental to the forum atmosphere, we had no choice but to apply the infractions that have banned him for 6 months.
A note to other members: we welcome constructive feedback and if you feel strongly about any issue, please free to email us. We don’t want multiple threads across the forum to be derailed so we ask everyone to refrain from targeting any members because of this ban.

Bun has been banned due to new evidence that has been obtained that he is a multi of other previously banned accounts, including SirAlex.
We appreciate that we have someone who is intent on causing a lot of trouble on the forum, and we want to let members know that we are doing everything we can to track down who this person is and identify the accounts they set up.
At the same time, our position on multi accounts remain as eloquently described by Prince EWS here and here. We do appeal to members to keep reporting their suspicions to us to continue to notify us of their suspicions either via the 'Report Post' tool, or via email, so that we can check them out, and also where possible not to react to this person and give them the attention they are so clearly after.

Darth018 has been permanently banned as we have discovered the account is a 'multi'. Unfortunately we have so far been unable to prove exactly who the account belonged to, but that it was a multi is not in dispute. It is not suspected of being related to the the Bun strain of multiple accounts in any way and we'd appreciate it if members did not speculate as to its owner.
