    I was banned from the rugby forum for expressing an opinion. Not once did I break any of the rules and I backed up all my arguments with evidence. I get banned whilst two posters who personally abused me (thehighground and zenmonk) remain free to post. Its a joke

    :confused:

    Sure you did. Don't tell me you're bringing a complaint to Admin without having first read the forum charter? You broke the rule against "provincial tit-for-tat bickering":

    I don't see what that has to do with your ban, but just so you know, others were banned for the same thing as you (see RuggieBear's post above).

    But I wasn't I simply said :

    Mick O'Driscoll shouldn't of been picked and Malcom O'Kelly is a better player

    and

    Munster don't have much depth (using Leinster as an example of a team with depth) and said this is worrying for Munster.


    petty provincial tit for tat is saying Leinster are ladyboys or Munster are turnip munchers or X province has much more pride than Y etc. I did none of that I simply responded to a topic but forward to me

    I'm not so sure that you're giving me everything I need here so I'm going to check-in with the Rugby Mods to see if there's anything more to this at which point I'll have enough to get back to you with a definitive answer.

    So if you could bear with me for a bit, I'll get back to you on this once I'm on top of things.

    Thanks.
