An Explanation Please
I, as a newcomer, han been reading posts on here and also having a look at member's profiles and some things puzzle me. I hope someone can explain them to me.

How long do I have to wait to put up an avatar of my own?

Why are some people suspended? What have they done to be suspended?

How long does suspension last? Does it vary for different offences, whatever they are?

I read a post that mentioned that someone was banned. How does this happen? What can cause a person to be banned? Do you get banned if you are suspended a certain number of times?

I am just curious I can assure I have no intention of doing anything to get suspended or banned.

I do hope someone can answer my questions. Thank you.

Two people have very kindly already explained it to me. I just want you all to have an opportunity to read it in case you have anything further to add. As I am still a little confused. It must be my age. HaHa.

Thank you.

I have been here for about eighteen months Big Les and am still curious. x

This is the original thread, but in the wrong category http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/ChatterBank/Question1243056.html

[biggleswade]

Thank you Nibble.

You need to wait a while before you use Gravatar to get an avatar.other than that, keep your nose clean!

To answer all your questions, just think of it as being like back in school.......

[gness]

As Chill says....and some days exam conditions apply.... ;-) x

And if you wear trousers a certain person will be after you:-)

I am also confused because both of your posts are in chatterbank - where does the wrong category come into it? Anyway keep reading and posting biggles, you'll soon pick up what's a no-no

[DTCwordfan]

What's a no-no, Prudie?

[pusskin]

Agree with prudie in wondering how your post is in the wrong section?

[MadMen]

The threads have been moved to the correct categories. Obviously.

In answer to the OP. If you have no intention of doing anything to get suspended or banned, I really shouldn't worry about it.

You know what curiosity did to the cat.... :-)

[DTCwordfan]

or to Madmen.....!

[MadMen]

Ha! That wasn't curiosity.... :P

[Prudie]

DTC - you must know, I class you as an expert :-)

[DTCwordfan]

thank you, gals - what's it called - 'just messin' '

[DTCwordfan]

So biggles, the hidden meaning of this is don't be a dumb dipstick, if you want to be one, do it intelligently - and, oh yes, no sex on here, well not live...... Richard doesn't like it.

It must be fairly easy - I managed it, I think !
