All have good points here - and I enjoy most of it.
However, the posts that created the situation were one of slander and libel that went over the limit.
And if you should truly know, I have been time outed people, 2 or 3 a week that go over the limit. And deleting posts and threads when they go over the limit or are unrelated every day.
BUT, the last week has been more than the past few months.
Basically, everyone knows what exactly the limits are. Go after someone with a slanderous or libelous remark and it will create a problem, especially someone who is in our industry, and goes to the shows and expos.
As I have always said, the people I meet at the contesta and expos have more credibility than a person behind the computer sitting in his mom's house that thinks it is ok to slander someone and post crap.
As for the nature of Getbig, it won't change much.
The main reason for this thread... because some of you kept asking why some threads were being deleted. As for someone not being allowed to post, obviously, judging by the rules, if they abide by them, they come back. But if you continue to violate, enough is enough.
