And banning stepherunie, come on, that's just a bit harsh! This is a bit like a wild west saloon! Yer man kicks everyone out every so often!

I can't be bothered reading through all the other long-looking threads so can someone summarise for me what happened? Preferably in two lines or less cos I'm a lazy lazy person!

edit - just saw Truckles banning thread, what did they all do!

I dont know which thread it was either, I went thru a few earlier and there didnt seem to be any rule breaking.. if I were to hazard a guess I think it would probably be the politics one where people seemed to be starting to canvass for people to join. I'm not really sure though, this came as a big surprise to me anyhoo..

I suppose we should have a wild party whilst theyre gone yeah??

They were told not to go OT by the mod, and they still did. That's basically it.

Incidently, how does one possibly go off topic in a thread such as this?

And could the moderators possibly give us a better indication of what happened, so the rest of us know what to avoid? There isn't much point deleting the 'offending material' immediatly. It isn't harming anybody now...

the thread was moved to TCN. 'tis a week ban to make a point, the stepherunie ban I think was more as a result of some misinterpretation on both sides.

The first time I looked at the Ban Thread, it was singingstranger who was dealt the indefinite ban. The next time it was Stepherunie and SS was listed twice in the week-ban list! I'm really confused, but I don't really care anymore.

I'm not a fan of people over chit chatting/spamming here but to ban half the board for a thread that should have been locked ages ago.... is loike...... ridiculous loike...... Firstly no one allowed to mention MC"fucking''D on Boards and now this....

If all the same people who were banned were also banned from the beers I'd probably be the only one showing up tonight!

that was my first reaction but on reflection I suppose the point had to be made and if you only ban one or two people will take less notice and will argue "how come i was banned and she wasn't" etc. hopefully after this there will be a lot less spam and the moderators might moderate more moderately, so to speak.

True, you can't start singling out people but it doesn't take away from the fact that it's very harsh, stern but fair if that makes any sense!

And yet someone who spams continually and is irritation on a cream cracker wasn't banned at all. Them's the breaks I guess.

The Stepherunie thing is pretty unfair though, especially as it was based on a total misunderstanding.

Looks like it's going to be a quiet week, eh?

This is just lame, cant the mod just admit he went power hungry and literally banned the only people who bother to post in his forum.
