Has a mod ever been banned?

Colonel Sanders

There's always a few times when we wanna reply to a trolling post with a string of abuse. I'm sure mods are the same! Any of them ever been banned?

Nevyn

I have been banned from this forum twice so far....

There have been mods who banned from other forums, some are banned from those I mod and there are mods who were demodded and infact site banned.

RuggieBear

yeah. all the time. and a few have been site banned too

EDIT: Damn you J

Marksie

yep, both from forums and site

po0k

No-one is safe.

Interesting... what the worst thing that a mod (who shall remain unnamed) do?

Dyr

Sometimes if you get posters who are highly motivated, they can form into a pack big enough to take down an injured or sickly mod, and, thus, the circle of life revolves.

if i told you i'd be sitebanned

Mods get banned all the time, think i was banned from after hours last time after I helped demonstrate that mods could be banned on a previous 'can mods be banned' thread.

I can help out again here if someone wants to say something stupid enough to be worth a bit of personal abuse?

We cannot break the seal of mod confidentiality.

This is about as close to conspiratorial as modding here gets, despite the rumours...

Now I've said too much...

The worst thing I saw was one linking to a virus riddled site.
I copped it right away and reported the post and the AH mods nipped it in the bud.
I think the mod in question was throwing some sort of hissy fit. Can't remember their name though.

I've banned a few mods from AH. The rules here apply to everyone equally.
I tried to ban an Smod last week, but I couldn't do it.

You do realise this little loose lips affliction will most likely result in you getting a "dark alley special"?

And i'm not talking about Tar's favourite pass time either.

RoundyMooney

You leave her out of this!

Spill the beans. I bet all the of the past offences pale in comparison to those commited by l33tltinyman (sp?).

You could just leave an envelope with the details somewhere and I'll just pick it up.. then no one would know any different and bob would indeed be your uncle

Myself and the other moderator took a break >_>

To be site-banned: just laugh at Asok's tiny cock. ... >_>

Banned from Snacks & Sweets (Or whatever) by the former dick-of-a-moderator who felt he had to be extremely petty and settle an imagined score.

I'm still banned from other fora for misc. stuff- I am innocent, you understand? (The moderator's a dick in each and every case. I am innocent. I WILL FIGHT DA POWAH!)


I've banned a few hmods, and mods as well for different reasons. Google!

(From a technical standpoint: One moderator cannot ban another other moderator(Or SMOD, or Admin. Goodness knows, we have tried.)

Always wondered what fade2black and another guy were banned for.....anyone care to share?

Been banned from Afterhours.... never site banned though..... yet

cornbb

I'm tempted to try banning myself from Recording/Mixing/Pro Audio. Just to see what happens. I bet stuff would melt *nods*

5starpool

The biggest upset was when a gang of 6 unnamed mods kidnapped DeV's cat. The haunting wail of him repeating "Where's my psuuy" will never leave me. Poor man. Those mods got theirs though.

Pepe LeFrits

I was banned from the Counter-Strike board at one stage; can't remember if it was while I moderated it or not though (it's possible!).

I've accumulated many other bans through the years, several while I was still a mod. Alas it seems my longest-serving ban from the UCD board has been lifted by someone, so my ban from Paganism (lol) is now the only ban I have that I'm aware of. Despite several attempts I've never been banned from the Angling forum...

m83

Wouldn't it be great if regular posters such as myself could enforce a ban on other mods/users... a citizens arrest of sorts Oh the fun we would have!

I'm surprised no one has said bubbles. He even had his own forum called bubbles. He is now site banned along with hundreds of alt accounts.
