As you know, we're very lenient here, but I think it's being taken advantage of in the Locker Room, so much so that sometimes the threads are simply embarrassing. So I've updated the rules there and Staff will now be more felt around that section.
Naturally, it will still be our most LQ section and I have no problem with that, users need a place to blow off steam and ignore wrestling for a few hours. This post will obviously cause some users to think we're suddenly going to become nazi style moderators in that section -- we're not -- we'll simply act upon threads which are of real bad quality by junking them. If your thread gets junked and you think it's unfair, you're welcome to PM Staff and they will reply with their reasoning.
Our main method of actually stopping repeat offenders is simple, we have created a "limited" user group. This user group has all the permissions that you usually have, it simply means you will not be able to post in both the introductions section and the locker room, everywhere else will still be available. However, if you are a superstar/legend with extra features, you will lose them for however long you are in the group. If you keep repeat offending, you'll have one week in the group. If you continue after, the time limit just gets increased. I doubt any of you will even make it into the group as you all tend to be quality users who abide by the few rules we have, but it's just here as a precaution.
Thanks, I'm open to answer any questions as some will naturally be confused. Reminder, it's only the real obvious LQ threads that serve no purpose that will be junked. It's no way going to be super super strict, so don't worry.
