IMPORTANT!!!!ALL MEMBERS PLEASE READ!!!!

From the staff of STORM2K:

Recently, the staff has been having to deal with more and more rude, bashing, sniping and uncalled for remarks from members about posts made by other members. IT IS OUT OF CONTROL AND MUST STOP!!!

We have made NUMEROUS announcements, requests, and even individual pms to ask that the practice of making rude comments about others posts stop and it has not. Due to this fact we are instituting a new policy immediately. If a staff member finds a post to be of the nature mentioned above two things will happen. 1st the post will be removed and 2nd the person making the post will be immediately suspended for 3 days without a warning being issued. We are forced into this by the continued practice of a few who feel they know better than the staff how to police the message board.

The staff is here for a reason-to keep the board running as smoothly as possible. We can not do this without your help, but that help has to come to us privately, not by a nasty remark on the open message board.

This thread is not an open comment thread for the general board and therefor is locked. If you have comments you feel need to be made concerning this use the pm feature or email to do so to any of the staff members. We will read and address the comments as quickly as we can. Comments concerning this announcement made on the open board will be dealt with in the same manner as above.
