 Believe me, you don't want to have "on vacation" by your member name!

They put that there by doing something which caused us to show them the door.

They are folks that have committed some sort of violation of forum rules. Publicly marking banned members is a relatively new feature here on CCF. We chose to say "On Vacation" rather than "Banned", because some of the folks "on vacation" are only serving a brief time in exile, suspended for a relatively minor infraction before being allowed back in.
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis

It is a family site that we can be assured that or grand kids/kids can view without any worries. The moderators have a duty of care to maintain this standard and I take my hat off to them for doing it in the manner that they do. It's not a line drawn in sand with these blokes it is a line marked in concrete

How bout "slapped" for minor and "slapped silly" for serious infractions. edit ( afterthought ) Now that I posted that I hope I never get "on vacation" since I will probably get the "slapped"  title.
