Down with this sort of thing

Karoma

Banned from FS Hardware for 2 weeks.. or 6 months.. Lemming can't decide what mood he's in..

Supposedly for "thread spoiling" in http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2054888715

It's a fair question!

Stop oppressing me on my birthday!!!1!

Chong

Ya seems to be a fair question.

I find the banning of 27 users a bit harsh considering the thread. Those at the end who were offered "post here and be banned" deserved it, simply because they asked for it.

Others? Well, read the thread and compare it to the mods response. I honestly feel it was harsh and should be reconsidered.

WHy was i banned *

*joke

Lemming

stop oppressing my right to oppress!!!!!

HAHAH class !

Gloating about your bans - sure, part of the job description. It makes the whole affair "not about the thread" or any rules and more about your deck of cards.

Go lock the thread if it's such a pisstake. Please.

Rockee

Wow, Lemming was feeling a tad trigger happy with the banning! I did have to laugh though when Dunners said 'I probably will get a permanent ban but I have to say...(in reference to Lemming)....head up your arse. With that Lemming relied...'Banned' Quality.

ciaranfo, rockee, willem D/WDK/vader/etc : you do realise that this is all a big pisstake?
Including this thread.

Great thing about protocols is that you can place them neatly in the fireplace and light a match to them. If there was rules regarding banning procedure it would be automated by now.

Personally I pm people, but there are plenty mods that don't.

You can have my floppy if you want. Ladies need only apply. Gets hard if handled too much though.

Someone over in Humour forum is getting great mileage out of the whole affair...

I do normally pm people, I just can't be arsed after 24. ANd it's kind of obvious as to what's going to happen if you post at this stage.

Perhaps. Though I've heard that you still only accept ps2 connections - get with the USB times woman!

I'll lift the bans tomorrow. Whilst I was arsing about, I wanted to make the point about the thread not being suitable for the FS forums. If you want humour, go to AH or Humour. The FS forum has a hard enough time of it without people acting the boll*cks.

Of course you are right.

But I'll tell you one thing: that was one of the funniest threads that I've seen in ages. Thanks lads, it made me laugh out loud a few times.

Now, I've a mousepad for sale (with stains). Any offers?

That thread made me laugh out loud, thanks.
Although, I know people who still buy floppies for college, Wonder will she send by express,

You PM DeVore incessantly about how that one mod is really making your life on boards a pain and s/he should be [strike]deflowered[/strike] demodded. I find that one PM every half hour usually does the trick. He'll need constant reminding so make sure you do this for at least one week.
It's best to copy the PM to all 5 site admins, and possibly SMODs for faster results.

marco murphy

Good. Sooner the better.

To add,

CuLT is a good moderator in the FS section

CuLT

Oh you!

A good regular kick up the wazoo has a good effect on the FS section. Sobers people up. You have no idea how irritating it is seeing so many rules breached on a daily basis when I went to a massive effort in updating and making the charter as easy to use and understand as possible in the wiki.

Lemming

/me claps very, very slowly for the armalite bhoy

Poblachtact .... "a chara" ... might I suggest that you learn when to quit whilst you are ahead. You were banned as per the charter, amongst other things. That ban was recinded a full one week and 6 days early. If you feel you have been aggreived, I can happily reinstate it for the full duration.

I got the PM from Lemming saying the ban was lifted about 9pm'ish last night but I still can't access the For Sale Computer Hardware section when logged in, and it doesn't appear in the list of forums either.
It's not that I feel any huge compulsion at this exact moment in time to buy secondhand computer parts but just in case this changes when some irresistably shiny lump of silicon goes up for grabs, am I still banned or is it some kind of bug in vbulletin that's doing this?

Sorry about that duridan. For some reason my initial listing didn't unban, so I went through the list as best I remembered it unbanning people. I must have just missed you on the list. Anyway, I've unbanned you now.

duridian

No worries, thanks
