Have you ever been “banned” from mfp, and for what?

I think it's best we stop here, before anyone gets warned or banned.

The community guidelines are straightforward and exist for a reason. It's not that hard to follow the guidelines when making a post, so please do make an effort to read them and follow them.

For example, there are ways to disagree with others and make a point without personally attacking another member or trolling threads. There are ways to show progress without showing your naked (or mostly naked) self.

Sometimes I wonder if members realize that everything posted on the open boards is viewable to the public. Yes, you have to log in to be able to post, but you do not need to log in to read threads. The "public" includes your boss, your co-workers, the CEO of your company, your minister, your grandparents, that creepy dude/gal down the street who is always eyeing you on your run, etc.

If you're ever warned, you're welcome to contact the moderator in question or a staff member to ask for further explanation. Even if you're not warned, you're welcome to contact mods or staff with any questions about posts, and you should report posts you think violate the guidelines.

Here's a link to the guidelines. Please take a moment to review them.
