Many banned or suspended!?
 
I was looking at old threads and lots of guys that have over 1000 posts or have been here for the past 10 years are either all banned or suspended. What is going on?! Something I don't know about? Haha

nube 03-09-2017 09:49 PM

I could tell ya the answer to that but I bet I would be banned by tomorrow..... and that isn't a joke either

So cynical Nube. :sHa_sarcasticlol:
It's like teaching kids how to play in the sandbox. Rules are simple

ETOWNCANUCK 03-09-2017 10:04 PM

I am surprised to see Waterninja is one

rugatika 03-09-2017 10:14 PM

Wow. didn't notice that waterninja got banned. Lot's of good characters being disappeared. Too bad.

Twisted Canuck 03-09-2017 10:16 PM

It's all about playing nice, keeping your head down....and when you can't do that at least be so outrageously funny that the mods spit a bit of coffee on their keyboards.

Trust me. :)

Lots of ****** and ******and guys who don't know when to keep their mouths shut. That is all.

cranky 03-09-2017 10:46 PM

Mostly i think the mods are pretty lenient. Seen lots that dont get a suspension that shoulda had one.

Morbius131 03-09-2017 10:52 PM

The Mods have a chart that they go by and once you hit the 1000 post mark, your odds of survival decreases.
You're at 300, use your next 700 posts wisely. :lol:

Never had an issue with the way you Mod. I think you are pretty fair.

It seems to me that the Mods let quite a bit go on here. You really need to be colouring well outside the lines to even attract their attention. Having been offside on occasion I also received fair warning. What is it some folks don't understand?

I used to have the upmost respect for how the forum ran until a thread I was participating on got locked. There was no reason other than the fact somebody in a position of authority did not share the same view in the thread. Thats censorship.

elkdump 03-10-2017 07:59 AM

I have a hunch a lot if people are banned or suspended so to say,, in a North Korea ,, but that is just a hunch

darren32 03-10-2017 08:00 AM

My morning entertainment .... scroll down and look for locked threads and see who got suspended and why LOL. :)

You mean that stupid thread about how the CIA controls everything including whether or not our city puts fluoride in our water ?
yeah, that thread had lots of fact in it - NOT
Waste of bandwidth unless you like tin foil hat stuff and believe everything you read

Do the crime do the time....

Dick284 03-10-2017 08:07 AM

Stay outta the gutter and back alleys, thus staying clear of the penalty box, or ban camp.

Seems pretty simple to me.

Yep, sometimes it's best to put the pool noodle down and take a knee. :scared0018:

I prefer to jump in the black Dodge dually, and go for a drive.

If it was in the general section why would it matter? I can see where he is coming from with his comment.

So what? I get tired of seeing smart ***** comments from some mods and threads getting locked simply because that person didn't agree with the thread. Why do some seem to have to have the last word? A better way would be to simply put why the thread was closed. And stop closing threads on a whim.

I don't want to say who this is directed at or I'll probably get suspended, but
Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?

complain to the admin if you don't like the way the place is moderated.
Or maybe just read the rules ......

That's interesting.........

Not to trying to beat a dead horse, but what forum rules were violated in that thread to justify closing it?

Sledhead71 03-10-2017 09:13 AM

There certainly has been a trend since the new sheriff in town assumed a role in moderating.

Too bad actually.
