    Was banned from Politics for a week after Bush got voted in, tempers were a bit high that day as you can imagine. Got back in though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,524 ✭✭✭✭Gordon


    Did we ban you previously from PI? I don't remember that. Got a link?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,089 ✭✭✭D!ve^Bomb!

    Log out and browse PI.

    If you were banned previously it makes this ban more than a week though. I think you were just warned to keep it civil tbh.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,089 ✭✭✭D!ve^Bomb!


    if i can log out and browse and still post as unregistered then whats the point of being banned?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,921 ✭✭✭✭Pigman II


    I've never been banned.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,095 ✭✭✭✭omb0wyn5ehpij9


    Never been banned in my whole couple of weeks!

    Who's the best mod to insult to get yourself banned?

    Maybe somebody could post a list of suitable insults, aka allowed parlimentary language and bannable language. :p

    Permanently banned from Windows for complaining to the mod for not enforcing the rule he brought in to stop people from pimping Phoenix ( now called Firefox ). I was the main pimp for Phoenix and so he brough in this rule saying if people had problems with IE ( or any other piece of software ) that you could not suggest alternatives to them; I used to push Phoenix to people with IE problems ( bugs, adware, spyware ) and that annoyed some people. He brought in this rule to stop my constant promotion. When someone suggested Phoenix in an IE thread I pointed out that he was breaking the new rule and I got into an argument with the Windows mod and got banned - forever. It's great to seeing everyone on Boards using/promoting Firefox nowadays :D I also appear to be permanently banned from games ( the ENTIRE games section - about 20 forums ) for saying I was downloading Doom III from the net and mentioning the name of the group who I was getting it from ( not linking just saying their name ).

    I expect to be banned from all of Boards in a little over a year at this rate. I may be able to post in the Battlestar Galactica forum :rolleyes:

    Shall I keep you banned indefinately if you don't think there's any point in being banned?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,089 ✭✭✭D!ve^Bomb!


    well no, you could always answer the question.. but if it makes you feel important to ban someone then by all means go ahead..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,922 ✭✭✭Dave


    I was banned from Humour a few years back, for what was considered a insensitive joke. PC gone mad I tells ya.

    You can post on PI as a guest right? So yeh being banned seems pointless unless you want to give advice and you're vain enough to want credit for it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,522 ✭✭✭Dr. Loon


    I think I was banned from politics for being abusive. Which makes me wonder why I haven't been banned from anywhere else.
