All,

A couple of months ago i joined Boards.ie Posting a topic on do other guys wear pyjamas. As a newbie i posted in a few forums that i considered were relavant to the topic , ie Fashion and appearance, social and Personal, And the Waterford forum. I was imediatly shut down without a chance of many replies. As a result i was told i was trolling. This term i didnt understand. I have tried to post the same today as all my threads are closed and again by the same admin i was shut down.

Is there no open discussion allowed on this board. My question was about an item of Clothing "mens pyjamas". There was nothing harmfull or bad content in relation to this subject. i just wanted opinion as some mates laugh when they see me in pjs and take the mick. just needed to know that i was not the only guy out there that wears them.

However due to the censorship of this site i may not be able to seek opinion. And i will be surprised if this thread is not closed before i get any replies.

SO THANKS FOR LISTENING- THIS MAY BE MY LAST POST- SHOT DOWN IN MY PJS

You should've posted just one thread, probably on Fashion/Appearance.
Creating multiple threads on the same topic across several forums is frowned upon.

I once shot an elephant in my PJs. How he got in my PJs I'll never know.

You only need to create one thread on the subject and if it's in the wrong forum it will be moved to the appropriate one.

bluestripe11, this is a privately owned board and by registering you become a guest and must obey the rules and the moderators of boards.

You have less than 20 posts and everyone of them is asking for what people think of PJs.

Ex 1 http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/archive/index.php/t-2055095693.html

Quit your trolling moaner. :P

Hey OP, it just looked like you were taking the piss, what with every one of your posts got to do with pyjamas and spread over three forums. Just posting about them in one forum will do.

OP, do you honestly expect to be taken seriously when you appear to have an obsession with pyjamas?

It definitely isn't trolling which is adopting a position which you don't believe in in order to get a response and implies that the troll is insulting someone.

The three questions seem legitimate to me:

Waterford - Am I a normal Deishan
Fashion- Are PJs making a comeback
After Hours- An innocuous question looking for answers

I sometimes wear pajamas but find that they constrict the nether region and as a result usually kick the bottoms off during the night.

You have to remember that boards is privately owned (not by the moderators) and one can be banned for pretty much anything.

That said it could be argued that boards is like a club in which case the reason must be predictable and consistent.

Bluestripe11 I tried to take your poll but there is no option for 'Top Only'.

As nearly 35% of male boards users wear some sort of PJ combination (not counting Top Only which was unavailable) it might be worthwhile to seek a Pajamas Forum.

http://boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=461

The link above will help.

I don't actually agree he is trolling, three threads, pretty polite, just a weird interest.

Trolling? Maybe, maybe not. But posting the same message across multiple boards, that's a spamming.

Censored? Not all of your threads were shut down. This one is still open and has had plenty of replies......
