Rules and procedure for banning a member on WildFact

[sanjay]

In this thread, we want to make clear what could be the reason of banning a member and what is the process. In general the first and foremost rule for anyone is to talk in mature and gentle way, even you disagree. You are free to oppose the views of other if you disagree on certain matters. But while opposing and writing your response, you should be very careful while selecting your words. Do not insult, do not sound arrogant, do not use offensive words, do not use words that may hurts sentiment of others. If it is debatable topic and have no scientific evidence then add words like, "In my opinion", "I am not sure though" etc.
Also, while talking with Moderators please be polite and gentle, show some respect (For being a senior member of WildFact forum). It is not mandatory you agree with moderators or owner but while replying to mods please use manner (As you talk with you senior in offices, schools and home). Use words like "I request", "Please consider", "I have different opinion with all respect to you..." So in short do not use words that make your sentence tough and arrogant.

Also, Many of you (Including me) have problem with English, and due to this, sometime people either misunderstood response of other members (and hence respond differently than expected) or they write in a way which sounds entirely different to those who read it. So, before responding or writing please read or rephrase your sentence correctly.
For rest of the rules, see following rules-
