They are usually good about logging everything (PMs, links, etc), but you're right in that those are easy to change. Anyway, a lot of the members do contact other mods or admins when they feel they've been treated unfairly. When that happens, usually the admin(s) investigate a bit further and take the appropriate course of action.

Ever since the inception of the infraction system, though, we haven't had any issues like the one you mention.

Anybody can easily pass any of our current infraction points leaders. Violate TOU #6 and you instantly win that game but the prize is a permaban.

I had to look all over the place to find them when 3hree5ive0ero mentioned TOU #6. Maybe the links to the TOU should be the My350Z TOUs?

You can also click on FAQ (next to "User CP") and then click on "Terms of Use". Those 2 links have always been there, as far as I know.

The other TOU is the Internet Brands TOU. That is more along the lines of legal fine print for forum content and general use

EDIT: FOund it!
Comprehensive Ignore System

http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=181626

Quote:

The Comprehensive Ignore System allows your users to ignore more than just a users text in a post.

First, users can ignore entire threads. These threads will then not show up in searches, forumdisplay, and "new posts".

Second, if a user puts someone on their ignored list, they stay ignored, meaning their threads will not show up in forum displays, searches, or "new posts".

Users can ignore threads with certain tags.

Users can select to ignore an entire forum, so that they no longer see it, nor do search results that are located in those forums show to the user.

Complete user group control for each of these features.

Admin can also clear a users ignores when editing a user.

Users can review and remove ignores from their UserCP.

Requires two small template edits (sorry, no template hooks where this product needed them).

If your template is not 3.7 ready, then you will have to make a couple of more manual template edits.

Do not forget to edit the user groups!

Damn theres some cool hacks on this site:

How to add the PM box search function:

Different version of vb, but it can be done apparently.
