Heck i've even got to the point of not posting anything at all at times, how sad is that ?
Yep, that is pretty much all anyone can do. Not post. Sad, but true.
That being said, I've had the odd warning but it isn't like I didn't expect it. If I do go overboard, I don't mind if someone tells me so, and a fair warning is actually appreciated. I also know when to stop arguing a point, at least when it comes to the forum itself (when it comes to Vader maybe I don't know when to quit
). I certainly think that if someone has a "history" of some kind, then the rules can be applied more strictly to them, but I think that overall that goes for everyone on the forum. Certainly the reasoning behind your own situation fails me, but all you can do is politely ask what the reason is and what you can do to help prevent any misunderstanding in the future.
Yes, the RPF has gone through a lot of changes and it is a very different forum than five years ago. Pragmatically I think to myself that as long as we can discuss the basic cool prop replica stuff, then I don't mind going back once in a while to discuss something, but if I do it is always like walking a tightrope, not knowing what might happen.
