    So just curious, have you ever been banned from anything on boards? See loads of people complaining over in Feedback, so don't want to hear any of the following:

    1. it was wrong
    2. the mod's a dick
    3. unban me now or i'll get my friends to mock you
    4. Cat pictures

    What i am interested in is people who'll admit freely to been a bit on the naughty side, what'd ye do? And what was the sentance?

    I'll start, I'm clean as a whistle, 500 posts and no bans...

    Does that make me unpopular like those kids in school who never missed a day and got letters from the lord mayor? :(

    Banned once from soccer for calling Paul Jewell an arsehole.

    Ban was for one week.

    I was inspired to draw a picture for the 'Describe Your First Sexual experience with MSPaint' and I drew a dog licking a guys balls and posted it in 'Know Your Nerds' for some reason.

    i got banned for starting a thread like this in after hours.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 230 ✭✭BigTommyBomb


    I was banned for a week for jumping the gun on my mod status. I ran my mouth a bit with threats I couldn't back up.

    Well I took my weeks ban and it felt good. I reflected on what I had did and I've kept my nose clean since and I'd advise the rest of you to do the same.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,220 ✭✭✭✭biko


    Why not, been awhile since last thread like this.

    I was banned once in Computers for linking to copyrighted material (a movie someone had ripped from a DVD). I begged and pleaded and the good mod let me back in again after a day in the cold.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,247 ✭✭✭✭6th


    I've had a few:

    Paganism: 1
    After Hours: 2
    Paranormal: 1

    Pretty sure there are more but I cant remember.

    I believe I am still banned in the Gigs & Events forum. I inadvertently mentioned something I shouldn't have. It weren't intentional guv'nor honest and as far as I remember I was going out of my way not to say the thing it was that I must have said but wasn't supposed to say.

    Must PM the mod and see what the story is with getting back in there.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,397 ✭✭✭✭Degsy


    Vegetarian-Once and for ever
    After Hours-Twice for difference of opinion
    Self Defence-Once for slagging Le Rack

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,561 ✭✭✭Duff

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,117 ✭✭✭Gazza22


    AH ban once and i'm also one of the lucky ones to survive a site ban too [don't ask ;)]

    But that was in my newbie days on boards, i'm a good man now :cool:


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 47,539 CMod ✭✭✭✭Black Swan


    Site banned for a month. That's when a friend started calling me Bad B!ue, while another made the sig I now use.

    No Atari Jaguar choice on your poll?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,039 ✭✭✭✭Kintarō Hattori

    Banned for calling another poster a M*therf*cker whilst under the influence. No idea why, I didnt even know the other guy.

    Banned from Paranormal (seems to be permanent): for taking the piss out of "online readings" by comparing it to the little sigs people have that tell you your IP address.
    Pfff, someone should have warned me beforehand ala Minority Report. :rolleyes:

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,391 ✭✭✭One Cold Hand


    None, but I'm working on it.

    I'll be dissappointed if i'm not banned by the end of the day. I think I'll head to the Christianity forum. Can't be too hard to be banned from there!

    Banned for a week (or was it three) when a 'friend' in my class used my account to post a crap load of, i think, porn on various forums. Once i found out why i was banned, i quetly accepted it, and was just glad i wasnt perma-banned.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,463 ✭✭✭KTRIC


    OOOOoooooh Yeah :D

    Banned more times than I've had hot dinners, isn't that right Ecksor ;)

    I've read this a few times, and I still burst out laughing from it. Bravo!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,093 ✭✭✭TelePaul


    Banned permanently from Instruments....gave someobody the RIGHT advice, pity it contradicted what alot of other people were saying! :) It's all down to the mods.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,880 ✭✭✭Raphael


    Many bans from CTYI, all deserved afaic remember.
    I think one from AH, for personal abuse, fully expected.
    Once from boards itself, for abuse through rep. Something of an amusing story, I abused someone while very tired, forgot about it, then reported him for abusing me back and we both got banned. Woops...

    Banned from the old for mobiles sale forum. Somebody was selling a motorola for €35. I told them I hated motorolas and would give them €35 to keep it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,480 ✭✭✭projectmayhem


    was banned from AH for posting a link to bad naughty things for a week. there was another week-long ban somewhere else, but i don't remember what it was for, or what forum it was (possibly AH)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,448 ✭✭✭Lazare


    For all the rebels, post here, and thou shall receive a banning......

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,561 ✭✭✭Rhyme


    Short ban in Computers for blurting out something which people had spent an entire thread skirting around... the mod who banned me was fair and let me back.

    That's about it, i read more and post less these days >_>


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,732 ✭✭✭rain on


    Once for a week for making in-jokes with one boards poster about another boards poster being a terrible ride.


  • Subscribers Posts: 9,716 ✭✭✭CuLT
