I think it only applies to TCN though. OP is looking for a site ban by the look of it.

If I ever want to be site banned I'll do it the old fashioned way!

You are very lazy and unimaginative, Tim Robbins.

I think the OP just wants some attention. He's around long enough to know he should have posted on Helpdesk or PM'd a SMod/Admin.

Oh please stay, Tim Robbins!

I'll ban you from Sligo IT as well if you like. Then post in the stupidity filter and you'll only have another 996 forums to go.

If you want to be banned, you'll have to work for it. Post some spam, or porn, or go around insulting everyone. Maybe send some threatening private messages, or maybe just threaten legal action? That's a sure fire way to get banned.

But for the love of god, don't just sit there and expect it to fall into your lap. Get up off your ass and DO something!

Like Karl Hungus said. All you need to do is threaten legal action for not banning you. Sorted.

Make your password a youtube link

Copy and paste into both fields

Do your email if you never need your account again.

But remember! It doesnt stop you from browsing boards

Tim- IMO using insulting language rarely results in a ban, but taking issue with a insulting post might or even expressing a different view to the cosy club members is more likely to provoke the sheep baying for a ban.

It's quite easy but why bother?

The correct way to phrase the request is "I demand to be banned or you will be hearing from my solicitors".

Because then I'd have a ton of people messaging me to get banned. This is simpler and DIY.

I'd ban him from both of the forums I moderate, but I don't believe he has ever posted in either of them.

I've seen posters ask for temp bans because they have exams coming up and find themselves surfing boards instead of studying.

Which can't possibly help at all seeing as you can browse unregged with ease. Just a bit of dramatics on their part, I reckon.

True. Maybe if you couldn't post the appeal wouldn't be there though?

Getting banned on boards is one of the easiest things to do in the world. Just one post thats not in line with the thinking of the owners and your gone. Then back again. Then gone.

Aw c'mon Tim, I like you too much to ban you.

And besides remember when you got that mystery ban and all that manure went through the air conditioning?

Is it really your wish?

Willpower, or just change your password.

Or give it to us........

(actually don't that muppetcheck would result in an actual ban, for one of us)

Use your imagination. It should be easy to get banned. Crikey, its what people complain about.
