Basically Frozen is a Temporary Ban on a user.

[Rayquaza]

Freezes will arise when arise when a user has reached a certain amount of infraction points.

They can also happen when a user has requested it, or at the discretion of staff.

When someone is frozen, they can still view the forums, but cannot post, access the chat room, see their page or edit their details.

15. What does frozen mean?

When a member is frozen, it can mean a number of different things:

1. They (the user[s]) have accumulated too many infraction points and they have earned a 3 or 7 day freeze, also known as a temporary ban.
2. They have been frozen by a staff member for either seriously breaking rules, are here for the sole purpose of advertisement, or have done something serious enough to be banned but a senior staff member is not around at the time to ban them at that time.
3. They are under the age requirement to sign up at and have been frozen until they are of the age to sign up. This is usually done for about 12 months.
4. A senior staff member has frozen them for a set amount of time for an offense, (this could also be requested, on rare occasions).
