That's solid advice, but sometimes you are just in the wrong place at a wrong time. People love to jump to conclusions too quickly.
But common decency should say that you are not guilty until proven so (and before anyone can bounce on this I have faith in admins doing the ruling right). We only need to look at the tabloid papers how they crucify people by taking stuff out of context. If an open and totally transparent violation report process would be implemented the whole forum would degenerate to a massive Akuma-land where everybody keeps touting their innocence (whatever true or not) for months with things going for a popularity vote. Can you imagine the size of a petition threads.
I support the idea Bacon. I've noticed the same and been posting rule violations taking this into account.
