Having an orderly, organized, and well-moderated Forum makes browsing and discussions better. And more importantly, it attracts more visitors to join. Moderation does not only includes moving, editing, deleting, or managing posts and threads. But it also involves moderating or managing the Forum members. Every Forum has its own Rules and Regulations which every member should abide. And Forum Moderators should see to it that members do not stray away from those guidelines. So an Infraction System has been put up which is a good way to manage those members who violate the Forum Rules or display inappropriate behavior.
User Infraction system
The User Infraction system is designed to automate the management of misbehaving users.
Currently, Symbianize has these infraction levels…
| Title |
Points |
|
Expiration |
| Repeated Flooding, Multi-posting, or Spamming |
1 |
|
1 Month |
| Repeated Avatar/Signature/Profile Picture Rule Violation |
1 |
|
1 Month |
| Advertisement, Promotion, or Linking to a Site Similar to Symbianize |
1 |
|
1 Month |
| Insults or Inappropriate Language/Behavior |
2 |
|
1 Month |
| Posting Child Porn, Bestiality, or Malicious Softwares |
2 |
|
1 Month |
Each infraction level has an expiration time. When the infraction expires, the associated points are removed from the user’s point total and the user’s infraction groups are recalculated.
Infraction levels can also be allowed to be given as warnings. A warning does not add any infraction point to the user’s point total. Warnings serve as a method to remind user’s of our forum’s rules and encourage them to be followed without awarding infraction points. Giving whether an infraction or a warning solely depends on Moderator’s discretion.
AUTOMATIC BAN
Accumulating 5 infraction points automatically suspends a user’s account.

Web browser toolbars are getting popular nowadays. Yahoo and google toolbars are the most commonly used. And now, Symbianize released its very own web browser toolbar.
The Symbianize Toolbar comes with some cool and handy features. Some of them are links to frequently visited pages or essential links to various section of the site. There’s also a privacy protection which includes one-click to the following: clear browser cache, clear browser history, and delete browser cookies. Weather forecast and a google-powered search box is also provided. But what i like about most is the email notifier where user has the ability to setup multiple new email reminders. Just like yahoo or google toolbar which notify you if a new email arrives. Symbianize toolbar works exactly the same thing but more. It allows the user to setup more than one email account and with just one-click, the user gets access to his email accounts. It can be a hotmail, yahoo, gmail, or any pop3 email as long as the domain is a .com or .co.uk.
