    I it would be nice if there was a notification from admin or staff on a banned members profile stating the fact that they are currently banned.
    That might help explain the absence of that member so that CM friends needn't be worried or struggling to get in touch with them via other means.
    Thank you

    This would be a welcome feature.
    I sent PMs to people, without realising they've been banned

    Kind Regard,

    I also have a huge back log of mail to answer from people who probably think I was ignoring them.
    Not really fair. :-(

    Noted, in future if someone is banned the Mods team will ensure that there is a notice on their profile to say as much when there is a definite return date.

    I can only assume that it was a secret banishment as there was nothing mentioned at all to me. Usually there is a thread in the Moderator sections of the site asking for comments.

    If a Member is banned there is normally a strike through line across the Member's name. OP may have noticed this backalong. That said, there are a lot of updates to the site ongoing at present so that issue may need consequential revisiting. Thanks for raising this.It is a valid point.

    Is it reasonable to expect staff or admin to know what you are doing personally or privately? They are not mind readers.

    My banning was to do with interpersonal relations with a staff member. Therefore there was no consultation regarding the ban with other staff and no notification on my profile.

    Just to clarify - there was indeed consultation with other staff regarding the events preceding your short term ban which had nothing to do with interpersonal relations with a staff member. If there had been enquiries made to admin staff regarding your absence from the site they would have been answered. No such enquiries were made.

    Please refrain from making misleading statements.

    The OP was initially referring to banned members generally. It is not as a rule practical to do this as the vast majority of bans are due to spammers and there are far too many of them to mark their profiles as to why.
    One recent typical one is
    https://www.chastitymansion.com/forums/index.php?members/joyola-lumiya.56740/
    As you will see (at least unless/until the member gets deleted entirely) there is a strike through the members name, indicating the ban.

    The OP was indeed banned for a temporary period some time ago (other reasons than spam entirely), but nevertheless during which the name was shown as struck through in just the same way; and I recall Jens did also put something to explain on the profile for the period in that instance. Maybe OP couldn't see it though! But this is now all ancient history, and the matter hopefully resolved and we can all move forward.

    And Jules above is quite right. I was a Mod myself during at least part of that period. And she should know as she also was once banned (by pure mistake I should add and soon rectified!:D)

    I should also point out that bans (other than for spam) are very rare indeed on CM.I can only recall two others in the 8+ years I've been a member, though there may have been others I didn't spot.

    However members can also and occasionally are made inactive(normally at their own request) , which means they can't post, (though they can read and can also PM). Then there is no strike through line.

    being on the outside looking in it is clear that snake feels she was wronged with the banning and the way it was carried out. it is also clear that some on staff feel all was proper and justified. i can feel for both sides but this thread has all the red flags of both parties are taking it personal and reacting accordingly. mistress jules is a strong and confident woman who can surely rise above this and simply say i am sorry you feel that way. our policy now is to draw the line through the name of all banned members if there are other suggestions members have we are always glad to consider them. snake should realize that the staff has bureaucratic power here and have been gracious up to this point allowing her to have this pulpit at all. thank the staff for their consideration and move on. i have enjoyed your point of view in the past and hope that you will be here for a long time.
    lastly, in this world xx's have had to work very hard to achieve dominant roles. we need not be squabbling amongst ourselves. better for us to find common ground and support one another.

    Very close to the mark though I think the ultimate decision both to ban and reinstate was Jens's alone. And OP will be well aware of the role of Mod as she was also once one herself!

    @Mascara^Snake was not banned, her CM account was suspended for 4 weeks. She had been given many warnings this would happen but refused to take heed.

    Why would anyone who had done enough to earn a ban or suspension be given any special treatment? If she was concerned about members worrying about her she had weeks to warn them and give them her contact details.

    Hopefully now she is back she will get on with enjoying the site and not cause any further disruptions and further suspensions.

    The banning notification is the same as ever, with a strike through the name.

    Thanks for clarifying. And just to clarify also: my posts on this thread related solely to the period some time ago during which @Mascara^Snake had been banned and to the ban function generally. No more, no less.
