2 days SinBin to cool off. Partially at member's request.
Member is ranting about moderation being done on his behalf and fueling fires we are trying to put out.

After finding and moving a significant number more OT posts to Texas -- none were ever deleted -- i have increased Joel's time to 1 week. The forum is not a place to vent littering threads where people are trying to get honest help with detrius..
fdegrove & 316a were not innocent in these happenings, and this is an official reprimand.
316a voleenteered for a week SinBin... if he likes he can serve it voleentarily.
The posts in question can all be seen here

Update
After receiving an email from Jocko, with an explanation of his reasons for posting the offending message, and some discussion amonsgt the Mods, I have reduced his sentence to 2 days.
But, as the fight was flaring up again, despite warnings to all concerned, I have also decided to give mikek and Rodd 2 days in the sinbin as a "Cooling Off" period. The original post in the offending thread will be merged with the Peace thread, and all other posts removed to Texas.
I hope this will be the end of the matter, as I have great respect for the knowledge and experience of all concerned.

mikek
After a long period of discussion amongst the mods we have increased mikek's sentence in the sin bin to two weeks, with a further two weeks suspended.
This is because he sent several abusive emails to other members via the forum, a behaviour we will not tolerate.
The sentence will be dated from the first day of sinbin, so five days have been served so far, with nine to go. Time served has run concurrently with his two days cooling off period.
Depending on further thought and discussion, we reserve the right to put mikek under moderation when he is released.

I am sad to say that HaloJoy will not answer any of our emails, and continues to post a URL in contravention of our requests. Until such time as he straightens this out he is on hiatus.

Grollins (Grey) has been sinbinned for 2 days for disregarding the forum rules on safety (rule #4) and his persistent cavalier position on the issue of safety after multiple warnings.
Safety is not a debatable issue on this forum.
Fred and Steve
Fred Dieckmann and Steve Eddy are in the SinBin for two days for not following my directive to lay off that thread and the Skin Game thread for two days.

Double-checking the time stamps, it appears I'm in error about Steve Eddy. He did follow my directive. My apologies to Steve.
Steve Eddy will be spending two days in the SinBin for not following a moderator's directive to stay out of a contentious thread for two days.
Lars Clausen
One day SinBin for disregarding Forum Rule 5): Usage of multiple registrations for the same person and/or same internet access account is not permitted without prior approval of the site, and may result in a permanent ban of the individual and/or account holder.
Taking into account the circumstances (bashing from other members, suggesting using official business name as moniker for advertising purposes and possibility that user might have not been aware of breaking the rule) the sentence is suspended.
I'd like to remind all the bashers that they technically break the first rule of the forum, which may result in more posts in the Sin Bin thread.😉

FACTOR
FACTOR has put in the sinbin for two weeks. He has persisted to use the forum for advertising though he was asked to stop. He then felt it necessary to use the forums email system to send a moderator an insulting email.

Sin Bin -> tyler477
Hello,
User tyler477 sinbinned for 1 week. I was thinking only a couple days, but he's only got 14 posts... so I doubt he'll care much.
Thread:

(second post)
Reason:
Being extremely rude for absolutely no reason. He could have been much more helpfull.
EDIT
Just found more bad posts by this user. Extending sinbin to 2 weeks.
