Personally I don't think Archimedes should have had a profile infraction from a Mod because of the PMs, but he also shouldn't be trolling/flame-baiting via PM, it's just not cricket.

Ok, so I was wrong to send the initial PM. It did not do me any favours but it was not malicious and it was very light hearted, and theconsensus is that while I shouldn't have sent it, T4TF did over-react.

As such, I would like to challenge this infraction (and thus my overall soccer forum ban). I would also like to challenge a previous infraction I picked up in the OP in this thread earlier in the year which I feel again was a huge, harsh over-reaction given the nature of the thread and the fact that most people in the soccer forum know a joke when they see it. The post has since been edited but I assume you can see the original?

I am looking for help/clarification from an admin preferably on this, Gordon if possible as he has already a grasp of what went down. Cheers.

Edit: I also want to add in case it got lost in the other thread, the reason I was seeking a resolution so soon in this is because of the World Cup. Ive contributed a lot it's discussion on the SF and would hate to miss out on the semi-finals and finals if it turns out that something could have been done. It has nothing got to do with being annoyed at not receiving a response from people quick enough.
