Default Are *\'s taking it too far?

The common misconception on 2+2 is that it was built for OOT, but let us not fool ourselves, 2+2 will and always be a poker forum.

As you browse the general poker forums you'll see posters (some good, some bad) with *'s in their name. I find it extremely moronic that posters who come to post on a poker forum are being banned and "given strikes" that can ban them from the whole of 2+2 because Astroglide thinks their "OOT" posts aren't funny enough.

I think the *'s are a good system and should be given to people who use offensive material and breaking the basic ToS...

What I'm curious about is why people don't use the stars at the bottom of the thread to rate it instead of typing them in as replies. The rating thing at the bottom is way cooler.

*'s are a strike system, people are given *'s because astroglide deems the posts not worthy. If someone gets 3 they are banned from all of 2+2.

Oh. I thought the stars under people's names were for good posters like the ones at the bottom. Everything makes a lot more sense now.
