Members who then continue to encourage such actions may have stronger actions taken against them. All members are encouraged to hit the report post button, if they find a post about any illegal activities. [/#0000ff]
As a legal site matter that is the way all fishing boards have to handle posts about illegal activities. Once notified the board should pull down the offending post and send a pm with clarification of the law if possible and to protect the site, the pm should be accompanied with restating of the rules above.
As a teachable moment to others that is difficult where you can't leave a post reflecting illegal activities on the boards. The mod can always come back with a post about an issue without mentioning the poster by name and cite the problem and quote the corresponding code from the IDFG so that it does not reoccur.
