Hello Mods,
Can you fill us in as to why Not Sure was recently banned?

I don't recall seeing a thread where the plug was pulled on him. Sure he had some strong opinions, but many of his posts were informative and well-thought.

I count it as an unfortunate loss to GIM2.

They had a reason posted, and its just temporary if I remember right, so he'll probably be back soon.

i was banned once for making a post that I didn't mean to be racist, but i guess they thought it was so i was suspended for a week. I somehow survived being not able to post for a week though

I think they said it had been building up to the level of a ban for some time. He is a little rough around the edges. Hopefully he'll be back.

him book and a few others are always getting temp. banned.


Why? Because they are idiots.:s11:


If you can't figure it out though then lol.

I mean wake up when you say "strong opinions"

If if want a real answer its probably beacuse every other word they say is something racists.

The irony or hoarder saying someone is a bit 'rough around the edges' is just too much ;). All kidding aside I hope Not Sure comes back as he had a point of view all his own sometimes. In a nutshell he was essentially banned for his black and white views on just about everything that translated into a number of less than friendly posts. It's one thing to be brutally honest, sarcastic, or a mixture of both, but many of his post's were simply caustic at best.

...Just to be clear I enjoy some of your posts too hoarder even if I don't agree with half of them :p.

Hey up guys,

we have a policy of not talking about people who aren't here to defend themselves,

that is why one thread got axed, and why this one is being moved.

I haven't deleted so the new people get an idea of what is what.

Thanks for not deleting this thread and explaining why it's still here. I read a number of boards from time to time and it's refreshing that people are typically allowed so much freedom here.

:cool:

Thank you to all who offered implicit, and in a few cases, explicit support regarding my "troubles."

I've responded in the other thread in this sub-forum, so if you're curious, go there. I've said my peace on this issue, and will move on to other topics.
