Re: [HydroGuy] Hey Tom
In reply to:
If I call a female member of DZ.com a stupid fucking cunt...do I get banned from the forum I post it in? Or from DZ.com in general?
From the forum you post in, unless you're making it a DZ.com wide issue by crossposting into unrelated forums. That decision is made by Sangiro, not the moderators of the individual forums.
In reply to:
How long would the ban last?
14 days is typical. For worse offenses, longer. In more serious discussions, or in the Incidents forum, longer. In the Bonfire, usually shorter.

How about if I send it to her in a PM? Are PM's fair game as long as they are not threatening in nature?
Yes. PM's are pretty much fair game, because you can just block a poster whose PM's you don't want to receive. There are some exceptions to that guideline (threats of violence, moderation related abuse, etc).
I'm teaching all this week, so my on-line time is limited. PM's, email, or phone calls are probably a better way to ask these kind of questions.
