I'm just wondering about the empty board under the banning forum is about? There's never any messages there so I'm curious as to what purpose it has.

I'm just wondering about the empty board under the banning forum is about? There's never any messages there so I'm curious as to what purpose it has. Are you talking about "Level Beta Testing Messages"? If so, that is a privileged Board used only by a designer and those who are testing (called BETA testing) a Custom Level. Whenever a designer electz to use that meanz of communication, they are given a password to enter that Board. They give that password to the BETA tester(z) and talk about the puzzle privately before it is ever released. It has been 'quiet' because of the web hosting problem. You see, the BETA tester(z) could download the latest version of the puzzle from the thread within that Board ... but noone can download anything right now.  So most of the testing is now done via e-mail. |

I think he means the Reinstatement of banned Grunterz forum. It is the only one I can see without postz in it.

Yes, the reinstatement board.  I read the post where GooRoo had to ban the poor kid that was too young (to protect him) back in 2004 and I got to wondering about it, so I clicked on the banning forum. It was empty. Oh and PS: When will I be able to see imagez? I used the basic skin but can't get imagez, just empty boxez. |

There are a few no-noz regarding the use of this Forum. Doing something against the spirit of this Forum will lead to (first) a warning; repeated offensez lead to a banning; if the staff of this Forum (Global Moderators and GooRoo) decide the offender has suffered enough ... or has apologized (sincerely) for the actionz leading to the ban ... the offender is reinstated. Fortunately, there have been no offensez that have gone beyond the first warning ... so the Board has been (thankfully!) very inactive. And all of the commentz about the reinstatement of the banned member are deleted before the reinstatement ... so the Board is usually empty.
