Rangers, what are you on about? Not being rude but I don't understand what you're saying. Seems a bit 'off topic' regarding why Managers don't use this forum like they used to!

For what reason? I can see nothing in her latest forum activity to warrant a 20year+ ban.
I'm not at liberty to reveal that information, if you want to know why, you will have to ask penny.

Don't you think bans are a bit 'over the top'? Whatever she said shouldn't warrant a 20 year ban! Surely that's ridiculous!? Makes me worried to say anything even slightly controversial. Sticks and stones, she didn't murder anyone did she lol!?

You don't get banned for being slightly controversial smiley you get banned for constantly breaking the rules. Penny was banned permanently by the Game Admin of the day

Wow, OK, I don't know what she did to warrant a permanent ban, thought she was a good 'un, but rules are rules!

No names, non specific, what rule/s warrants a life long ban if broken, as opposed to a shorter time related ban or punishment? Warning to other Managers! Actually it doesn't really matter because, back to my original post, no one is reading or commenting on this forum anymore!?

I haven't seen anybody banned permanently for one thing. We tend to give people 3 warnings before their first ban and that ban is only normally for 3 days. If people continue to break rules then a 7 day ban ....and so on and so on. This isn't set in stone though. Sometimes teams can be banned without a warning for excessive spam/swearing/racism. We have to remember that the game caters for people of all ages and forum posts, therefore, have to be of an acceptable nature

Fair enough!

Just thinking, suggestion. When Sunnyvale do the next Game Development Blog, could he write a section encouraging Managers to get involved in the Forums. We need to emphasize that this is a friendly community of Managers enjoying the game. I expect new Managers are so busy understanding the scope and complexity of the game that they're not even aware of the advice available through this forum. Friendly banter enhances the game and was an attraction when I first started playing! Need to advertise the forum within the game to involve Managers! What do you think??
