Made an off color joke that resulted in an infraction 8 months ago. Was a 6 month long point against me. Should of expired on 3/11/11 but still showing as an infraction when I hit UserCP.

Can I have it removed?
 
lozgod I'm going to check into that right now, off the top of my head---I thought all points expired in one year but I might be wrong.
 
Attaching pic. Thank you.

I think I see where your confusion is... you are probably in the US, where we write out dates MM-DD-YYYY, but the dates here are set up according to the way the rest of the world does it, which is DD-MM-YYYY, so that is indeed a 1 year infraction, (received on the 8th of July, 2010, expires on the 3rd of July, 2011) not 6 months. :)

The infraction issued July 8th 2010 (by my adjusted timezone) will expire on July 7th 2011. This is the way things would work with any other member. I'm only aware of infractions that expire in one year. No one needs to discuss their infractions on the front of the board if they don't want to. You can can continue discussing here or PM me or fizzle for more information, whichever is your preference.

No problemo. It was actually a joke that seemed like it was asking for a drug location but after re-reading it I could see how it could be taken seriously. I should of added more sarcasm but you are welcome. I try to be a good boy. =D
 
^ your contributions around the site are certainly noticed (at least by me ;)) and appreciated. I actually thanked you earlier before reading it and I was kind of surprised you were infracted for that. I don't think shake saw it as a joke but I could certainly tell you intended as such.

Appreciate the kind words. I try to contribute and avoid the internet drama. Wish I wasn't such an expert on drug addiction but this is the life I chose or the life that chose me. I can go back to my original posts of desperation and look at my progress. I am now beginning methadone which was a tough decision but I need to get my life manageable. Seems to be working. I lost a really high paying job and found another one recently. I am putting it all back together.

We do recover. I see myself drug free one day but right now I have to do some things I would rather not but it beats paying God knows how much to avoid pill sickness. I hope my struggles can help someone else. I been to prison, homeless, etc etc. The places drug addiction takes you. I don't wish it on my worst enemy. I'm pushing 40. Hope someone of any age just getting started in this life can see mine, and other people's experiences and see it leads to hell and if they are on that road, there is an exit.
 
OP- I can relate. I received a infraction for drug solicitation even though as of 9/3/08 I haven't drank alcohol, used nicotine, used any illicit drugs, only drugs that were Rxed to me. I got the Rxes after a year clean in recovery I found an old tweak pipe and was in a bad place spiritually so almost went out. I was helped by my support system in recovery and received an enourmous amount of non-judgemental support on the dark side amphetamine/meth support megathread. So anyway at the time of the infarction, looking at the date I am quite sure I was'nt looking for drugs.8) Can't remember why i received the infraction but it was probably a comment taken out of context or misunderstood by a moderator. In 4 years, with all my rants, its amazing that I when I got an infraction it was for drug solicitation. You thing I would have gotten an infraction for boring people to death first or being to loquacious.

But anyway, mods, seniors, admins, have a hard job and do alot of work to keep this website running and for that I am greatful. This one was probably trying to excersize her judgement to the best of her ability so no bad blood- however I think as problematic a task as it is, the guidelines in different forums should be liberalized to some extent. I also think that a thorough explanation of the rationale behind each rule and regulation should be explained in the read before you post forum threads so we atleast understand the logic behind the rules.
 
jspun you posted high times magazines in the lounge for which you received a warning, not an infraction in January. The warning mentioned the sourcing, prices aspect of your post but was also a problem for NDTITL or the problem of posting something in the wrong place. Ordinarily I don't discuss member discipline on the front of the board but you have posted about this January happening in three different support threads today, which is quite frankly bullshit.
 
Lol I make that same mistake any chance I can.

It helped me though to understand where the order actually comes from when people say its ordered better and what not.
But I didn't realize they mean as in date (most specific)/ month (medium specific)/year (least specific). If that makes any sense. Now that I think about it that way I finally realize why everyone says we do it backwards, cause we do lol. Took me a long time to figure out something so stupid.
 
Sorry Enki- I'll edit my posts I honestly couldn't remember why I received a warning, thought i had an infraction. Sorry posting that topic in three different places- not trying to piss you off. Sorry if i upset you. I'll tread lightly from here on out. Please forgive me for the annoyance.

Again, like I said, I sincerly appreciate the hard work and effort you guys make to keep BL going.:)
