That strikes have turned from one month consequences to one year?

EDIT-Not fully in my case, but if you look at strikes, 98% of strikes are at least a month old.

Mods don't go around wating for people's strikes to expire. You should usually tell the mods when your time is up.

I don't know who told you that strikes are "one-month consequences".  They are not, and never were.

Actually, a Mod posted that in a thread when someone was asking why they got theirs.

I'm fairly certain it was Enos (Although I may be wrong).  He felt like he didn't deserve it, and the Mod just said wait your month like everyone else.

And not only from the Mod/Mods, but alot of members here think it is only a month.

But say your correct, why did the system change after a year? Because when I first came here under Tippy_182, I remember people only having strikes for a month, two at most.

Strikes?

Be lucky you even get that kind of warning from the current Mods.

I'd simply delete your account and never look back, and if you came back to cry about it... I'd delete you again.

You opinion of my historical recolection doesn't sway me in the least bit.

But lets say it did, for fun?  You think that my old username would be before this one, which I stated I saw the comment in a previous thread.  That would mean my first username had to be before Feb. of this year.  If the thread is still even valid, I wouldn't waste my time searching it so that my credability towards yourself would be increased.

For quoting language?  I would hate to be your kid.....

I'm sure you hear this alot, but I honestly didn't even see it when I posted.  I quoted a long paragraph, and the guy had used **** to blur out a word so It hadn't registered in my mind as anything to not post.  Granted, I know the rules, and it was my fault, *'s are considered cursing.  I took the strike and didn't complain.  This thread had nothing to do with the protesting of my strike, just more of the length of it and many others because I was under the impression that they only lasted a month from my previous time here.

I had my first strike for about 4 or 5 months, then I got my second strike. Then Rambino told me to choose my own title because I said I wanted one, then it got changed, then I got guested.

I remember the "wait your month like everyone else", and I do believe it was Shenk. But I'm not sure if one month, or if he even said a certain time.

Dont get a strike and you wont have to worry about it.

You did the crime, do your time till the mods decide to take the strike away. There is not a set time for strikes to expire and there never was.

You my friend, are a moron.

Did you bother to read any of the post above you?

I was under the impression that there was a set time of a month, and so were alot of other people.  In my opinion, to clear it up, there should be a set rule in the forum rules regarding the length, or to at least let people know.

But do me and others a favor from now on, and read the post above you.  You save yourself the embarrassment, and me the typing.
