Soccer forum ban appeal

    I have been banned for a month now. I was banned for role-playing with myself and insulting a made up boards member. I insulted no one on the forum, rather it was an attack on blind Celtic fans who fail to give Rangers credit. Plus I have a few opinions I want to voice.

    Where's the ban appeal?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,103 ✭✭✭estebancambias


    Oh yeah please reinstate me back to the soccer forum.

    I made an appeal about a month back. Let me explain role-playing with myself.

    Me:'Bleedin Rangers scum. celtic are irish, tere team isnt very good but i suport them because tere irish.

    I don't think Rangers are scum. I posted this after Rangers destroyed Lyon away, with a fantastic performance, I noticed people were not giving them enough credit due to their insane hatred.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,247 ✭✭✭✭6th


    Oh I remember this .... hi!

    Anyway have you tried to Pm one of the mods?

    So seeing as this is feedback, you want to give some feedback about the Soccer forum before people come on and give feedback about your post?

    He can't provide one, he can't log out and go in there as Soccer is a private forum.

    Try sending a PM to the mod who banned you, politely and clearly outlining your position. Its possible he misunderstood your sarcasm/humour. However if he thinks you were trolling your ban is unlikely to get lifted.

    Soccer's not private, just read-only by default. :)

    The mod who banned you will make the call.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,103 ✭✭✭estebancambias


    I don't know who banned me.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41,926 ✭✭✭✭_blank_


    I think it was kdjac.

    But then he would have nothing to troll Feedback about ... :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,103 ✭✭✭estebancambias


    Look I just want back in.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,552 ✭✭✭✭GuanYin


    Look I just want back in.

    I want world peace and good will towards all people, and the new vanquish, and a mansion and a million euros.

    Join the queue for fanciful requests.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,103 ✭✭✭estebancambias


    fanciful? It's complete injustice. There is no reason I am not allowed to be in. I have contributed to many threads in that forum in a very positive manner. Grant it, perhaps that ban was merited...perhaps, but in that forum there is minimal oppurtunity for me to get into a war of words.

    On the wrestling forum, fitness forum, and some others I get on ok with people, people are holding my past against me.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41,926 ✭✭✭✭_blank_


    Is it a permanent ban?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,103 ✭✭✭estebancambias


    I have no idea to be honest. I contacted KDJAC(?)-the Sevilla loving guy, just waiting for a reply.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41,926 ✭✭✭✭_blank_


    No, sorry, I was wrong. It wasn't him that banned you.

    It was T4TF according to psi in this thread.

    Seville? He's a Pats fan.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,346 ✭✭✭✭KdjaCL


    T4tf banned you.

    up to him what happens next.

    kdjac


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,103 ✭✭✭estebancambias


    Yeah but he loves Sevilla? The Eircom league doesnt actually count as a league, does it?
    It's sort of like a joke rather than a competition
    that was a really bad joke. Have to get in touch with this T4tf charachter.

    See?

    This is why you were banned.

    Your posts come across as trollish, even if it is a joke, something like this would have annoyed me a few months ago (I'm a Shels supporter).

    Fair enough, you said it was a joke, ha ha, but the post that you got banned for, you didn't say that you were joking, and there have been people banned from soccer for posts like yours that weren't jokes, in the past.

    How is a mod supposed to know you were joking? Be a mind reader?

    Also, you are/had been banned from a number of other forums on Boards.ie, so your name may have cropped up as something of a 'problematic' member, therefore you are given little leeway. Why should you be? Do you not think the mods have enough Spammers, Shills, mupptes and idiots to put up with without you adding to an already hard job?

    Furthermore, how many people do you think have been banned from soccer, and other fora, for comments like yours who then go on to claim "I was only joking" as an excuse? Why should you be believed where someone else wasn't believed in the past?
