Just reading all these banning posts, gosh isnt the world a safer place that the moderators monitor us so closely. All hail our overlords for protecting us from the evils of.... eh... each other!!!

In all seriousness though, that dude who said she/he didnt like the monthy python flix and got banned? Gimme a break! Good movies, but where is the fun in a forum if you cant give ur opinion???

Still tho, u deserve a polite slap on the wrist for ur dislike!

Stone HIM!!!!!!!!!!

That poor guy. I wonder what his girlfriend thinks of his ban? (ahem)

Yes I've been banned from After Hours for posting up a rude video. A moment of stupidity on my part.:o

Pighead got banned from After Hours a couple of times for being a brat.
Currently banned from The Cuckoos Nest which is a tad ironic as a lot of people would say that is where Pigheads posts belong.

I was banned from the humour forum a few years ago. Think it was only a week or two.

The other mods. We get no special privilidges outside of the forums we moderate.

If I act the prick in PI I'm as likely to get banned as anyone else tbh. It's happened a few times when I lost my temper with someone and started giving them a lot of abuse. Alcohol and PI don't mix well...

Never have I been banned, but then again I've only been here a couple of months. I feel like a loser. Somebody ban me for 10 minutes.

I was banned from politics for calling someone a moron in this thread, entitled "New Orleans: who gives a f*ck?" That was for a week, but I never PM'd the mod who banned me cos I never tried to get back into the forum, so I only got unbanned yesterday, lol.

I was banned from Feedback because one of the mods started a thread showing how powerful he is, and I posted in it. Gotta love sad people...

I was banned from After Hours too, for swearing at some guy who was spamming up a perfectly legitimate thread about the Smoking Ban, I think. That was for a week, which turned into 3 weeks because of the system crash.

Where to start?

I've been banned on PI twice, once for a link I posted and I can't remember what the first one was.

I've been banned on politics twice for letting Shinners goad me into flaming them.

I've been banned on Tickets Wanted for not reading the charter, not sure if that's lifted or not yet, I haven't had need of the forum since so I didn't pursue it.

And I got a site-wide ban for a month during the whole Feedback thing because I signed a feedback comment as Dev for a joke that, in the context of the thread was at least mildly amusing. Someone else had sent feedback to a n00b which basically said **** off and die you're not welcome on boards.ie and signed it Dev and I got banned as a result of the ensuing zero-tolerance policy brought in about signing feedback as someone else. It was a stupid thing to do and I apologised for it. I'm not expanding on this to justify my actions, I just wouldn't like people to think my actions were malicious at the time.

Any ban I've received I've apologised for my actions and patiently sat out my ban. Don't understand why people feel the need to whine and make an ass of themselves on Feedback. Sure, there probably have been one or two cases where bans have been handed out harshly (I've even PM'd a mod before to request a ban be lifted for what was taken as flaming me) but they're usually only a tiny percentage of those handed out...

remember bout 3years ago, one of the moderators da vore and some other guy got into this ridiculous fight that went on for weeks during the summer.Your man kept signing in under different names e.g. da vore is a prick or whatever. It was funny for a while but became really irritating. Your man must hold the record for being banned anyway
