jcc currently has 49 active infraction points (and has just returned from a ban).
Under our warnings and bans policy, published in the Site Feedback subforum, if jcc gets any more warning points before 20 May he will be immediately banned for at least 1 day (and possibly longer, depending on how many points are allocated). On 20 May, some of his current points will start to expire (3 months from date of issue).
Bear in mind that when the forum shifted to the new software, in effect everybody got their slate wiped clean. So, it is taking some time for problem posters to move themselves into ban territory. In short, the issues we're experiencing now should sort themselves out over time.
Moreover, we now have a policy in place that can get people excluded from the Science sections. Once again, because this is a new policy, it may not have much visible effect for a while, until people start to build up the necessary number of official warnings.
