Why do TRF users get banned?

Silly question but I'd like to know what types of behavior to avoid.

Anything you would not do at your mama's house!!
Hehehehe! Just be nice, don't talk firearms or politics and be polite, no sexist remarks or naked women posts, hehehehe. And DO NOT argue with moderators. Also no posts asking how do you get banned!!!

Welcome!!!

As Steve (Lol-x) would say "If you can't post anything positive then it's best not to post anything at all" Follow that simple creed and you will be good.

Just don't cuss, make wild accusations or direct your anger at a mod lol pretty much basic human interaction. You wouldn't just walk into a bar you're not a regular at and act a fool would you? If so, then expect the wrath that comes.

I've typed comments to post and then deleted them. I figured if I had to question whether they were tasteful or not I should probably not post it. I really like this place and I think I would actually be upset if I got myself kicked out.

So people are thinking TheVTC guy is/was Jan Davis? Hmmm...we better not suggest that TheVTC guy is/was Jan Davis as that's how rumors get started.

Just saying.

That and the "Keys to the Kingdom" rule. If you hold the keys to the kingdom, you get to lock the door on anyone you don't want in the kingdom.

You got that right, Paul. It's hard to make ends meet on the subsistence wages we get. I had to go out and get a day job to supplement my income.
