Banned from AH

kev_s88

okay turns out im banned from Cool links, pics and vids

Terry unjustly banned me for posting a link to rick-roll people.

i hardly think its fair to get banned for that.some people may find it a cool link and its a video too.and i couldnt find anywhere in the Charter that says you're not allowed to Rick0Roll people on Boards.ie

6th

Ah come on, thats a no brainer. At this stage why would you bother posting it anyway? Everyone has seen it.

irlrobins

You were therefore banned under the general "Acting the muppet" rule

kev_s88

boo to you all.

i only got rick-rolled for the first time yesterday.i didnt know how widespread it was so i posted it.it was innocent fun.wouldnt have minded if i had got an infraction but a 2 week ban is a bit over the top

6th

An infraction means you might have done something silly again. I'm pretty sure a ban means you wont.

C'mon Kev, you can take a ban on the chin.

kev_s88

but 2 weeks without my precious youtube links......

im too lazy to browse youtube myself

tbh though none of this will change terry's mind so i may as well give up

Hail 2 Da Chimp

Don't you do it Kev! Don't you give up... Don't let Terry get away with it!

Fight Tha Powahhhh!!!!!

You can still view it if you log out, be stronge.

kev_s88

the thing is that you actually got me Sherifu.

at least it wasnt as bad as mine.the one i had was one the ones you can only get rid of through Task Manager.everytime you clicked the "x" on the main window an extra window popped up with the lyrics to the song...

He wishes, you dont have to click a link to know what it goes to

kev_s88

see though rick-rolling can be fun hence my campaign to get me re-instated in Cool Links, Pics & Vids

Heh, nice one Sherifu.

Well if that's true then that's the reason you got banned right there, not the rickrolling. Rickrolling could possibly be funny if it wasn't so stupid and way over done at this stage, but for posting shit like that Terry should not just have banned you but he should have gone to your house and shoved your modem up your ass.

6th

Ok who hacked stevenmu's account? He's never usually agressive.

Hail 2 Da Chimp

He's on a one man mission to rid t'internet of Rick-rolling!

stevenmu

I don't really care about rickrolling, but that popup you can't close crap is the single worst thing you can do on the internet. Someone did it to me back in 1998 and I still haven't forgiven them *shakes fist*

Rick rolling is a total pile of bollix.

You were banned for acting the muppet at the end of the day.

It's not cool it's a pain in the ass and irritating. I'm sure some people would consider donkey porn cool but does that mean it can be posted in cool vids, hell no.

As for the charter bit. From the after hours charter:

azezil

I was young and needed the money *runs out of the room crying*

6th

You didnt look young in that last video!

azezil

Oi! ¬_¬

Vanity ..... Az's sore point

azezil

*sniffles* my achilles heal

6th

I'm sorry, I'm sure you have lovely youthful heals.

tbh

I'm sorry. I hate myself for doing this. Seriously.

but it's "heel".

Terry

I tried posting a reply to the OP's PM the other day, but boards was playing up.
I have limited access at the moment.

I also tried postig a rant about this crap in AH, but that didn't go through either.

The ban stays.

Terry

Just to add to this, any misleading link in AH or the sub forums will get you banned.
We had far too much trouble in the past with people linking to viruses and stuff.

Welcome back Terry.

Terry

I'm not back.
Just visiting.
