    Sorry, I wasn't intending to mean I would make such a banner. Just pondering the idea. Pondering is allowed right?

    Is this not true?
    A favor, regardless of cost, is a service, and should be advertised in the correct Forum, or taken to PM immediately after the offer or service is discussed.

    While technically the Cinny thread did cross some lines, we are not Nazi's here. The problem with the OP's thread is that it was only about a service being offered.

    Ok, Thanks for clearing that up Mr. Slim. If random things pop up from time to time in random discussion that is "OK". But a post made specifically for a service regardless of cost is not allowed in the general forums.

    Gotcha!!!

    SO, can you make us an "I survived the Wrath of Slim's infraction hammer" banner???

    1) I'm just an umpire calling balls and strikes, no wrath involved...

    2) Take this banner thing to PM...

    I have always wondered, since we have access to use that emoticon, are we allowed to use it at all? I feel if I did I would just be accused of swearing, unless mods can see what it filtered from.

    Haha, I got yelled at for using the :cens0r: smiley once. I got a simple zero point warning telling me watch myself. I just bushed it off and try not to use that smiley so they don't think I tripped a censor. No big deal, really.

    To the OP, don't go. You've been a valuable member here and I'd really hate to see you leave. If you insist on leaving, hit me up on Facebook if you want someone to talk to. Drop me a PM and I'll shoot ya my info.
