How Suspensions will work this weekend

[AB Editor]

Afternoon all,

I've noticed the nastiness has crept back into ChatterBank.

I'd prefer it if we kept it to medium strength banter and level 4 "cut & thrust" please. Exceeding these limitations (or breaking the rules) will have you suspended.

While usually a suspension lasts a few days, typically a weekend, we're applying a new rule for this weekend, which, if it works, may remain for the long term.

Suspensions which take place this weekend will be reviewed on Monday by the editorial team. Suspensions, at this point, may be lifted. Those which are not (i.e. the suspensions are completely vaild, as most of them will be) with continue until the following monday.

At that point the suspension will be lifted - unless the user has returned with a new/other username or caused trouble in other ways (for example, sending a snarky email to us). If a suspended user causes trouble suspension will roll on for another week - or a ban will be put in place and the user will be bannished to the Swamp Of Unpleasent Odours.

Okay, you have been warned! Enjoy your weekend!

Phew - I'm so glad I am going on a dirty weekend with Sqad and away from here...................<whoops, promised I wouldn't tell, slip of the tongue>

[LoftyLottie]

Well I suppose if you going on a dirty weekend it might as well be with a retired Surgeon on hand!!

Afternoon Lottie......<waves>

[LoftyLottie]

Waves back. Give my love to Sqad when you see him. I hope you have some suitable underwear - silk knickers etc.-

[Barmaid]

Den - you mean Sqad has invited you too?!!!!!!!

[DEN53]

Nah - just my Bridget Jones knickers - I think he takes what he can get these days...........haha

LOL Barmaid!!

[DEN53]

Barmaid - funny, he did mention about a three-way, but I thought he meant my travel plug.......(:0(

But that is not fair Ed - I don't drink :o(
Well - only liquid medicine. You would drink all the while Ed if you were watching AB as much as I do every 24 hours.
<< snot fair, snot fair, snot fair, snot fair >>
Can anyone lend me a hankie please?

[ummmm]

Here you go ttfn.....there there...hush your tears...

[ttfn]

Cheers ladies. I am putting the medium sized banter theory to the test. Been nice knowing you all xx

[MarkRae]

Well, if your intention was to produce without doubt the most boring Friday evening on AB since I've been here, you have succeeded 100%!

Still, nobody's been suspended or banned (yet), as far as I can tell...

[Mamyalynne]

I can but concur with Markrae on this, have never known it so quiet,
