Banned for What?

    I was banned for no reason. I gave my word that all rules would be obeyed. I was true to my word.

    I received a one week ban which was uncalled for, I took this without causing a stir. Now I have been banned outright.

    Maybe someone can identify post which was in breach of the rules.

    If not then I can only assume that free speech, even when within the rules laid out, is not allowed on this forum.

    On an aside, all these bans were laid down by the same person. I would prefer if personal vendettas were not carried out on my person.

    You can't link to a search, you have to link to the thread or specific posts.

    Free speech isn't allowed on these fora.

    Your link doesn't appear to link to anything of consequence except a message stating "Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms."

    Which particular forum/post are you referring to?

    /edit just saw response above.


    Apparently you have been banned under direct instructions from one of the site owners.
    Sounds very final to me.
    Only DeVore can help you now, and I'm not too optimistic that he's going to.

    Looks like one of the reasons for the ban is multiple accounts which are not allowed.
    Other than that you have been deemed a troll.

    I banned him because he's a liar and a troll, and not even a particularly entertaining one. Also because he appealed to the admins for a second chance, was given it, squandered it, and DeVore instructed that he be banned on sight.

    I gave him several more days after that, and all he could come up with was a fictional PhD.

    If this doesn't answer your question you should probably ask oscarBravo/DeVore to elaborate.

    Also, using multiple accounts to get around a ban is considered naughty.

    You blew it Casey, they gave you a second chance. You started this thread which was fine until you started trolling it and posting your usual rubbish

    So personal opinions are not allowed?

    I'm just one of the members, having no official capacity at all. Will have been with boards.ie for two years in April. Have learned that boards.ie is similar in many respects to any community you reside in, although it's virtual. There are rules for conduct and norms (unwritten) for getting along with others in your community. There is quite a bit of variation in the application of these rules and norms between forums on boards, so shop around and you might find one or more forums where you might come closer to your definition of freedom of speech?

    Isn't there some kind of ISP ban that would prevent this or something?

    Doubt it, we would have to ban other genuine users who might have been on the same IP address.
