a small reminder.....
Dear brothers and sisters (yes, there are some mothers who read this) of the AAGPS rugby thread.
To begin with, congratulations to the Wolves of Lane Cove for their win today.
I hope all have enjoyed the small break over the past month to think about the contributions you will make this season. To make it simple, here is a reminder of the behaviours which garner you a warning all the way to a permanent ban.
Off topic posts (Warn)
Lift your game (Warn)
Racially Offensive Post (Warn)
Play the ball, not the man - towards public figure (Warn)
Schoolboy: Talking up your mates (Warn)
Play the ball, not the man - towards fellow forum member (Warn)
Schoolboy: Speak respectfully about Schoolboy rugby players (Warn)
Schoolboy: Discussing off field behaviour in schoolboy threads (Warn)
Schoolboy: Discussing imports/NTS/Politics/Pappa in wrong thread (Warn)
Being an annoying troll (Ban)
Lacking the maturity required to add value to G&GR community (Ban)
Racially Offensive Post (Ban)
Oxygen Thief (Permanent Ban)
Like a driver’s licence, with each infraction a point value is assigned. These points add up and if you accrue a certain number, you will find the longer the ban and even permanent. In addition, you will receive a PM from the moderator advising you of the issue and the details of the penalty.
In short, behave we have no issues. If not the other moderators and I shall be cracking down.
I have been here a long time and hence I am now I am the wise old badger. We have a great small space in the rugby universe to enjoy the sport we love, the schools many of us attended and the friendships made here. I look forward as always to meeting more this season in particular the students who will carry this forum on once I have “gone down the deep tunnel”.
Stay well
