Fortunately it doesn't happen often here but I just had to pull the membership of a person who joined a year and a half ago and whose post today showed that he had been off smoking for just 15 days. It is obvious that the person relapsed and did not understand our relapse policy. Whenever we end up pulling a membership because of a relapse we bring up this string and attach a note explaining that we just pulled a membership for that reason. We do this so that people can see of infrequently this actually occurs. We actually pull this string up a lot more for preventative measures than we do because of relapsed members posting at the board. We usually make it clear at those times too that we are bringing up the post in those times to help insure that people understand our relapse policy.

Freedom's relapse policy is simple. Any member who relapses shall permanently lose posting privileges.
