With the manga really heating up and emotions running high, H&E has a lot of active posters and more are likely to join up in the coming weeks to discuss all the resolutions.  Lots of exciting stuff ahead.  

 
That makes this a good time to remind everyone of the basic responsibilities of H&E users.
 
We've been seeing a steady increase in the use of profanity and inappropriate content, memes, text / drawings / arguments brought from outside, and one-word or GIF-only responses.  This type of stuff -- along with bashing characters and other fans, as always -- are against site rules.  
 
Another issue is threads being dragged way, way off topic.  If you would like a thread to discuss random things, create one for that purpose or create a blog.  Either way, please keep the regular threads clear of off-topic chatter.
 
The staff of H&E would appreciate everyone's help in reducing the amount of moderation work required to keep the site clean and friendly.  Repeat offenders will be subject to disciplinary action.
 
Thanks.

Offtopic is right...

 

Thanks for the reminder though.

Why do people NOT ship these two? I just don't get it.

Probably cause they hate Sakura. When she's probably the most developed female character in the whole show.

I respect Hinata, but Sakura deserves some too.

I think moderators should send those users warning messages like "if you keep that up, you'll get banned" or something like that, so they'll stop. Someone being suddenly banned doesn't sound right to me too, specially since it looks like people have already said most part of their opinions about pairing discussions, so the debate thread is a lot vulnerable to off topic. Just my opinion though.

I believe that they do give out warnings. Also, welcome! You should start a topic in the Ninja Enrollment Fourm, just a suggestion though. Your username as many probably have said, is really cool.

We do. In fact we do it a lot more than we should. The users we just banned were banned because we gave them warning points after not listening to a multiple personal, and in-thread reminders to stop breaking the rules. Then we made a huge public announcement here. After that, the same exact people who were just given warning points, and just read this thread went on to not care and continued to break the same exact rules. Therefore receiving 3-day bans.

 

This site requires people to be 13 or older. If you're 13, then you should have a basic understanding of simple rules like "go right, fill it in with blue, don't post twice in a row, don't talk about cats, etc..." How are you going to join a forum thinking you won't have to follow their rules? I don't pity those kind of people like I did when I first became a moderator. They don't care for what I have to tell them when I'm looking out for them, then they're on their own.

 

Like I always say. If you're having a hard time understanding anything here on your own after about 2 weeks of being a member. Message me before you start getting my staff angry at you.

Oh, I see. That's not what I heard of. Like, people getting banned really suddenly. Do they get notifications when receive warning points?

I don't know if they receive notifications, probably just a mod or admin quoting a post by the person and issuing a warning. I'm not 100% sure about this, but for me, under my post count is a little message saying: '0 warning points' I believe that's where they can check and see it.

EDIT: Oops, apparently my message is pointless cause she/he got banned(?)

No one gets banned -- temporarily or permanently -- out of the blue.  Warnings are given in-thread, through the site's warning system, by PM, or all of the above to give users plenty of opportunity to correct problems before it comes down to some kind of suspension.  

 

It is the responsibility of all users to read and follow the Rules of Conduct, in which Smiter has clearly outlined the expected behavior of H&E users.  The suggestion that there are innocent, clueless victims who are suddenly and unfairly banned from participating here is false.

Just a note of thanks to you all for helping keep the board clean and as troll-free as possible.

 

Keep using the report feature to notify us of anything that needs attention.  There's a lot of ground to cover and it's changing constantly, so your help is much appreciated.
