That's ridiculous. Of course some rules are more strictly adhered to and acted on than others. Similar reasons that a court would give for not punishing a petty thief to life imprisonment.

Let's say, for the sake of argument, that a poster broke a reasonably serious rule. They are warned about that by PM, accept that they've broken the rule, apologise and say it won't happen again. A couple of weeks later, they break the same serious rule. Is a 24-hour posting suspension too harsh? Just right? Not harsh enough?

Hypothetically speaking, of course.

So what is this serious rule?Iit's not a hard question, just give a straight answer.

Why isn't it in CAPS and labelled as "serious rule" if it's so important? How are we supposed to know which rules are serious and which are minor infractions?

Don't break any of them, then you'll be fine.

The only person who needs to know why shorerdbear had his posting rights suspended is shorerdbear, and he knows. This didn't happen instantly, the issue was discussed with him when he broke it first and he accepted that and promised not to do it again.

Not sure how to make this more clear, but I'm not going to tell you what he was suspended for. He can if he likes, his posting rights are restored.

The ban for shorerdbear was for posting information which could lead to another poster having his identity disclosed. He did this whilst disputing a point that was put forward regarding the whereabouts of the Gersave funds.

So beware!

Back to the questions.

One thing I'm pretty damn sure about is that by continuing to use the name of an FSA registered company they have not dealt with since 2010 is a breach of FSA regulations and as such could land them a significant fine.

It's strange that even when it has been pointed out to them, a simple text change has not been carried out on their site.

One wonders if there is a reason for that?
