    I'm split between thinking that this comment is sarcastic and thinking that you're gonna get spankeh'd quite soon.

    Well it's fairly straightforward in regards to bannings. Post constructive on topic comments and you are fine, post crap or off topic and you will be banned. It still amazes me how many people are too stupid to work that out though.

    Everyone knows that is the rule, but if you are faced with a thread that is pish, then it is often deadly tempting to say something entirely inappropriate, regardless of the fact that you are aware of the consequences.

    I got banned once for giving the admin on another board a reacharound...

    When he said 'Anything Goes' that obviously didn't include aforementioned behaviour

    Banned from PI yesterday for addressing a point which was related to the thread but slightly off topic. Thread about proposing to a girlfriend where some idiot posted about conflict diamonds so in an effort to not discourage the OP from buying a diamond engagement ring I addressed his point. Interestingly the original misinformed idiot wasnt banned nor were the people who continued to post OT after...I think they're just a bit selective on who they ban... but anyway its only a week and i hardly ever post there anyway!

    Did you not think to use the report post function ? cos like duh that is what it is there for.

    More misinformation from you.

    There are 6 PI mods and there are 3 of each gender.

    Folks, if you want to fight the good fight with regards to your bans, then I suggest you use Feedback or the Help Desk.

    You will get no sympathy here.

    I was banned from the soccer forum before i was even given access. Dodgy access request so it was but they took the shackles off after many months and i'm back in. I got an infraction for posting a pair of tits there the other day too. I can be real dumb at the best of times

    Was chucked out of the Spell Nazis for not being Nazi enough. The forum was just starting and everyone was getting their feet. I was attacked over writing Do instead of Does (or something to that effect) and ended up in an argument with the mod, which of course I couldn't win.
    Glad to be gone, the "better than you" attitude in the beginning was pretty nasty, I hope it has calmed down now.

    As far as I know, one of the Admins stepped in and kicked some ass.
    I think it was DeVore.

    I think the Admins here are generally more open-minded ...

    On the other hand, if you keep pissing off Beruthiel ... well, let's just say that if the Jackboot of Love makes contact, a reacharound won't do you much good for a while! ;)
