F*ck me pink and call me Trudy, CAN YOU READ???

Giblet:They fall into a legal greyspot Mr. rolleyes, therefore with any ambiguity they cannot be classified as 100% legal. They aren't classified 100% under the law, and probably will be soon, making them illegal.

followed by

Giblet: And chucky the tree is banned for a week. You were told not to discuss how to aquire them.

Seriously. Have you PM'd Giblet? Have you even started a "Giblet sux0rs donkey cock" thread in Thunderdome? Have you exhausted all possibilities apart from coming to feedback and posting a thread that really does make it look like your specialist f*cking subject on Mastermind would be the bleedin' obvious?

I think its pretty obvious-the second post from Seamus asked that acquiring them not be discussed-does what it says on the tin. I assume you started to discuss how to acquire them.
Its a grey legal area and I assume boards have to cover themselves from any legal issues.

You Are Not Allowed To Discuss Where To Buy Magic Mushrooms On Boards.ie

Seriously, did you read the thread? Your black and white view of the world doesn't apply here, or in the real world. It is illegal to possess them, yet they can't arrest you because they grow locally and they can hardly arrest you if you didn't know what they were? That's what's called a grey area.

Where the legality is in question. There is no such thing as black and white arguments, in politics and law least of all.

May I also stress, before taking the time and effort of posting my utter disgust at this, that the feedback forum isn't the ****ing place to post these bastard 'WHY OEH WHY WAS I BAENNED!!' ****ing threads?

I'm sure I saw another one on the way into this one, too, for **** sake.

May I suggest throwing up a sticky informing people that people will be banned if they ask "why they were banned in X" in here, if they haven't gone the *normal route and waited a day or two?

*normal being PM'ing the mods. Needed to make that clear!

May I suggest you:
Open a Help Desk Ticket if you have an issue with over exceeded ban dates.

PM the moderator politely asking the problem, if you have no idea what you did.

Refrain for assuming that a forum regarding FeedBack is a forum to post complaints regarding being banned for some reason from another Board, as opposed to offering helpful suggestions?

As for me posting a charter, I am not in power to do so, although I have mentioned it in already avaliable charters.

May I add an additional suggestion of "catch yourself on"

I really won't mind the debate about the sale and legality of sale of mushrooms is extensive and covered in the media at length, after being warned from a mod, because you can't comprehend the legal awkwardness about certain drug (never heard of being stopped and given a caution) and then get banned. Its staggering that you don't grasp the legal ramification to the poor SOB running boards would be open to allowing you to carry on any conversation you choose. I swear moderation of the AH forum should be offered as some form of community service.

When they're dried they become illegal...

When not dried they're "not illegal"... doesn't say they're legal though...

That's where the grey area lies
