Housekeeping Blog Post: Suspensions and Personal Details
66 Answers
Good afternoon everyone. I hope we're all keeping well?
I know we all get quite friendly on here sometimes - and in such cases it can become easy to feel very involved with everyone else on the site. Sometimes we come to like, and even trust each others.
Sometimes this means we'll be prone to giving away more information about ourselves than we should.
Please remember not to post details about your personal life such as your name, date of birth or contact details such as email addresses, phone numbers and real addresses.
Equally, please avoid giving away the details of other users. Doing so will result in a suspension - especially if it seen to be malicious. Not only is it dangerous, but it's a bit creepy!
We do not acknowledge suspended or banned users by email.
So, while it may be therapeutic to email us during your suspension, don't expect an email back!
Suspensions last a week to be reviewed on the following Monday.
Please accept that the rules apply to you, and that you might not be in the best position to judge whether you "deserved it" or not. Just enjoy your suspension.
All the best,
Spare Ed

"Ed, can I ask if it is your decision to suspend or is it possible for a user to be suspended by a series of malicious reports?"
Sorry RH - You've lost me. It is usually an Ed or a mod who suspends a user. Can you explain the last bit for me please?
China - I would love to post some of these emails as they are, occasionally, hilarious. But yes, it would be giving into the dark side of the force, and I promised I'd use my powers for good.
