[QUOTE="scratch, post: 3651507, member: 1674"] It is fine to post links, there is nothing wrong with that. Where you are going wrong was calling people d*** suckers and stuff like that. You were warned to watch your language. This site relies on Google Ad revenue and the owner regularly gets notifications from Google about some of the content that gets posted. The owner has also been contacted by lawyers employed by UPS over names getting posted. While members are anonymous, the owner is not and there are slander laws. The first forum I joined was Teamsternet that did get sued by somebody whose name kept getting posted. They also started to charge money to join if I remember correctly and that lead to its demise. The owner is all for the right to voice your opinion in a civil manner. Its the vulgar and racial stuff that gets people in trouble. And I will admit that too much of that slips by. As a mod, I do not read 90-95% of what gets posted on here so we rely on other members to notify us of infractions. Different mods do have different levels of tolerance on what we act on. This site barely breaks even as far as ad revenue goes, its not a big money maker. [/QUOTE]
