I haven't been on course notes for a while and I've noticed some changes on forum...but I seriously noticed the newly implanted rules.....

I just recently viewed a thread.....where a member posted one post (this is based on the post count) and under his named was BANNED.....

Now I understand the rules...(or at least I get most of them)....and he broke...

"1) Do not ask us to do work for you! You ask for assistance in our forums. You do not come here with no work done for your own part and ask us to help you. Do some work on your own, otherwise your thread will be deleted without second thought."

I'm just wondering how lenient/strict are you guy on these rules....and what conditions caused that member to be banned after one post (based on the post count)...

-What causes one to be banned?
-How long is a ban?

Personally....in the future and (I've been known to do this in the past).....when I get a Essay Question or a DBQ....I like to come to course-notes to gather information for the Essay Question....during school time...(conveniently after my APUSH class is a WebDesign class)...i was wondering if it is prohibited to gather information for a DBQ/essay without any knowledge of that subject when posting....(because essays and DBQ's are usually do the next day).....

Or better yet....what conditions for asking for help do you want us to follow.....

Cause for the most part some people start a thread like this....

THREAD: Need Help!

Awww....I need help...
"Why is the sky Blue?"
I need a good grade so can somebody help me!!!!!!!!

Personally I don't do that too much...Most of the time I am pretty specific on what I want.....

But basically.....are those types of threads the types you don't want....

I'm confused now......anyway if you have a question on what this post was about feel free to ask...my mind is clustered....(maybe because I actually read the books this time)

Much Appreciated
