How to deal with a troublesome member / offensive posts / site rule violation
This is taken directly from the site rules.
**Updated site rules-Please read**
Quote:
10. All issues with members should be taken up by email or through the use of our pm system. If you like, you may contact a moderator or staff member to mediate.
If someone has made an offensive post, or is violating the site rules, rather than starting/participating in an argument, please click the  report bad post button on the left hand side of the post in question. This alerts staff members to the situation and we can take appropriate actions. If you choose to participate in a public flame war/argument rather than doing this, you may be on the receiving end of a reprimand rather than a thank you note.

Keep it on topic. Warnings have previously been issued for racist and ignorant comments, and further action will be taken to those that can't show basic decency towards one another.
If someone has made an inappropriate comment, PLEASE ALERT US!!! All you need to do is click on the
Report Bad Post button beside the post and it sends an e-mail to us to take a look. Another alternative is to send a Private Message to a staff member regarding the situation.
If you try to argue with them and participate in a public fued, you might be on the receiving end of a warning (or worse) rather than being thanked and recognized for your help in diffusing the situation.
