Arch Posted October 5, 2007 Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 ...from t0talt0rque.net*. I wondered if there is a focus group I could join to share my feelings with others who have 'suffered' like I have? "Hi my name is Arch and I'm a banned forum user." Once I've wiped the tears away, I think i'll go and start my own car forum. I can have moderator powers and everything, it'll be great, although there won't actually be a lot of members. *(loving the way the actual URL is filtered back to TSN btw ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chav Posted October 5, 2007 Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 what were you banned for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Posted October 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 Speaking my mind apparently. I know, on a forum.....who'd of thought it. Basically I defended another user when he was flamed to pieces (totally without reason) in a thread he started asking for advice on buying a CSL. Apparently, when everyone tells you to buy the CSL and then you consider an Exige as an alternative, that's tantamount to murder in the first. Or at least, wasting everyones time and being full of I think were the accusations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mook Posted October 5, 2007 Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 OK, so following on from that theme - when you start your own forum and become an uber-moderator and all that, it'll still be OK to go back to a forum you used to be very active on and post defamatory and purposely contradictive and pointless posts. And complain that it's not fair that your part of the country isn't given the same amount of media coverage/Govt money/attention that it deserves, even though loads of other people on the forum you've just gone back to from that same area who think you're talking guff. Or have I missed the point... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DHA Posted October 5, 2007 Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 I was banned, well someone registered as DHA and was banned. Am I unique in that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted October 5, 2007 Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 I was banned with a post count of zero.. is that a record? Mind you, I was called " Dave " . Obviously my reputation proceeds me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brabus Posted October 5, 2007 Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 I was banned, promised an explanation as to why and then nothing. I don't think I'll ever get over it. I'm over it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd ask for advice when I'm about to make a significantly large purchase and would probably post again when I have bought something new so I can tell everyone about it and how much it costs.

RossG Posted October 5, 2007 Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 But Arch, you acted like a cock and got personal. Wtf did you expect to happen? It always amused me hugely when people come onto TSN and spout nonsense about other forums, when they don't really know half the story they think they do ...

[/ QUOTE ] ....Well, I for one didn't get personal and didn't come on here spouting afterwards, but I still got banned. And I'm not the only one who was so unreasonably banned - I wasn't the first and doubtless won't be the last. However, I don't feel I'm missing anything by not being able to log onto TotalDork . It's no big deal - Worse things happen than being banned from a car forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Posted October 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2007 [ QUOTE ] But Arch, you acted like a cock and got personal. [/ QUOTE ] And how personal was the attack on Feoffle? Someone needed to say something, that someone was me. So I called Zillion a tw@ in my dying moments, he'll get over it or just 'moderate' it out of his memory. [ QUOTE ] Wtf did you expect to happen? [/ QUOTE ] I expected I'd probably get banned and I couldn't give a toss about that.

[/ QUOTE ] Pray enlighten us all then. I for one would love to hear the other half of the story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
