    Once, for a month odd.

    For some reason a mod took exception to me saying some guy who claimed he uses a universal remote to change the tv down the pub during vital moments in football matches deserved to be glassed if the fans caught him. Totally uncalled for imo but anyway, that was months ago.

    Wow you're a delightful fello.

    I didnt say Id do it myself, I said that if some drunken viewers caught him doing it its no less than he would deserve for interrupting it during a vital match.

    Even if they were united fans :)

    "I wouldn't do it myself, I'd incite others to do it" doesn't make it nice.

    Did you contact the moderators of that forum?

    Posts in that forum are moderated first, they have to be approved. Is this what you're complaining about? You have access as far as I can see.

    EDIT: Actually no, you are banned from that forum. Did the moderator not PM you when you were banned?

    I dont currently, when logged in it doesnt display any link to the forum on the drop down. When in the forum if I log in i get the no access yokey.

    Incite? Its the same as saying the idiot I saw the other day rollerblading down the middle of the motorway deserved to be run over. It doesnt mean I am urging anyone to actually kill him.

    edit- Ive never posted in the forum scojones, I cant be banned from it unless it was under the AH ban.

    That was my ban (dragged from PM). Funny, afrter re reading the PM i was actually banned for calling him a pathetic person under personal abuse rules (wording I chose to avoid a ban incidentally as how that can be viewed as abusive I dont know, but anyway)

    I know I don't moderate AH, but if you were trying to get a Politics ban overturned, the words "cold day in hell" spring to mind based on what I've read on this thread so far.

    It was Karoma who banned you from After Hours. I suggest sending him a PM.

    ecksor: If you ban someone from After Hours they are banned from the sub forums too, I'm fairly sure unbanning them unbans from all of the sub forums, or could this be a bug?

    Either way shane86, send Karoma a PM.

    Were you posting about football in After Hours by any chance?

    That's a banning offence.

    AH bans apply to the AH sub-fora as well. Are you still banned from AH? Can you post there? If not, then that is your problem and you should discuss having the ban lifted with the nice, friendly AH mods ;).

    r3nu4l: The ban is not in place on After Hours but is on the sub forum Cool Pics and Vids.

    If you are banned from a forum, you will receive a message when you attempt to view the forum saying "<username>, you do not have permission to view this page...." etc.

    If you can view the forum and create new threads, you're not banned.

    As per PM: Ban lifted from Cool Crap sub-forum. Sorry for the delays.

    You were banned for the threatening crap, crappy personal abuse, and other crap. I make no apologies for the ban.
