Hi, I was banned from this thread https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057874672 specifically for saying

"if you're going to tell me the museums, galleries, restaurants, bars, historical buildings, theatres, libraries, cathedrals, venues, festivals and creative food scene doesn't make up the cultural centre of a country you're deluded. Just look at the music acts to come out of Ireland in the last few decades and were they're coming from"

"If you think".. and the word "deluded" is used every day on boards.ie including the Kerry forum and people do not get banned for it. Surely this is a bit overboard. Graces7 who the post was directed at was claiming the culture in cities is a fake culture!

I discussed it with Necro and the above is the only thing they could find that was close to being insulting and insisted on upholding the ban even though I pointed out it's use throughout boards.ie.

Necro pointed me to post here if I wasn't happy with their decision.

Thanks for your time.

You were threadbanned for a day

You were lucky - if it was me I would have added a card to it
