I'm thinking someone's personal goal is to try and break every VR TOS/Rule prior to getting that particular profile deleted or their IP Suspended/Blocked.

Account Suspension and Deletion
Definitions
There are 3 primary methods in which a Vampire Rave Administrator may punish a member account:
Account Suspension
A member account may be suspended for a duration of 1 day to infinity. If an account is suspended for infinity and that account is level 1, it will eventually be deleted for inactivity.
Account Deletion
A member account may be deleted. Once deleted, no further evidence of the member's membership remains except for past Forum posts.
Zapping
Zapping is a special case of Administrative suspension. When an account is zapped, the member's profile, portfolio, and journal are all emptied. Everything the member has ever done is removed except for Forum posts. The profile description is set to the suspension reason.

In a nutshell, you're either here to enjoy the site or you're here to cause problems for other Vampire Rave members. The latter will not be tolerated.
