teaflower, while you mean well, I don't think Ramsus would want a title like this. Ramsus(if he did do it) did it because it needed to be done, not because he wanted to. Shadow was just being too disruptive.
All the same, there is no real proof that Ramsus did this to begin with. So let's dispense with all of this speculation.

Will Shad get banned if he doesn't clean up his act?
Tough call... One would have to do something pretty bad to get banned around here.

Sorry. I felt artistic. Sometimes, though, he can be nefarious. I think he might like it.

What the hell kind of user rank is "Fail (NaN)"?

It's just a label. Nothing more, nothing less.

Anyone who goes over an average of 15 posts/day on their profile is fair game to be placed into that group. That way other members can't immediately see their post count rank, and new members can recognize that they shouldn't take them too seriously or consider them one of the more important members.

Removal will be considered once he falls under 10 posts/day.

That's also a warning to other members who needlessly post a lot.

What about the RP section, I post there most of all, it demands a lot of posts.

I already took that into consideration, or you'd be in the same group.

You can see where someone posts by checking the Show Stats page of their profile view. As long as the RP board stays on top, you're good.

I think the average calculation on profiles is a bit screwy. I don't do 3 posts/day.

Averages are always screwy compared to reality, which is where a certain sense of discretion comes in on the part of the person using the numbers. I could calculate median posts per day every now and then, and that'd be more revealing in a case like this.

Good, I would hate to be banned and or ridiculed from this website.

It is just a website, though. If you have a chill attitude and aren't too concerned with your image or "social status" in the community, you usually do just fine here. Being put in some user group that simply hides your post count group becomes something you can just laugh off and keep a screenshot of for future members who make the same mistake.

It'd be pretty hard to stay in a group like that anyway. Post count averages go down pretty fast when you take a vacation, and gradually decrease as your account ages, since nobody posts every day.

I don't care about my post at all. I actually hope I get the Springtime of Youth thing over it. Anyways, I could care less about my Social Status, that's why I'm a Nerd. I misunderstood and thought I'd be banned from the website, which is now my favorite website. I find out all tons of stuff here, Chrono and nonchrono.

Anyways, Darkman is my friend, but I get along MUCH better with some other people, like teaflower and Pretty much everyone in the RP section.

There's almost no banning here -- to us that's an administrative faux pas. You'd have to seriously cause Z real distress or actually muck up the forums so they don't function and have to be restored from a recent backup. Even then, you'd probably still be aloud to at least browse the site.

Nevertheless, since 2003, we've had to permanently ban about 5 or 6 users, along with some duplicate accounts and some spam bots, so it does happen from time to time.

Like I said, I love this website, so I would never do something as stupid as Annoy Z to death or Make the Forums die. Anyways, I try to add at least SOMETHING intelligent to my posts, not like a single Picard smiley everywhere. I have never seen a post longer then 3 sentences from Darkman.

I dunno, some of his RP posts are long. Some of them. But the other ones... I dunno...
