    Hi people.

    I have a problem here. I posted in a motors forum saying that I was fed up of people being sexist towards women when it comes to driving and parking. Along comes Black_Knight and edits my post to make my post look sexist. Onkle kindly advised him that this was not on but he laughed it off as a joke. I am fuming with Black_knight over this. I want all admins to see a copy of this post. Here is the link:

    I hope this person is disciplined on this matter. Thanks for your time.

    Hi Sarason,

    We got the reported post. On reflection it's blatantly obvious that he's doctored your post, and if anything it reflects badly on him.

    Onkle gave him a 7 day ban in this post:
    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=67349289&postcount=1241

    I then put a warning on-thread to nip any future posts in the bud:
    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=67351260&postcount=1244

    It seems like Onkle's ban didn't apply properly to Black Knight and he was still able to post. I've since banned him as per Onkle's on-thread instruction.

    There's also another post that's questionable that I've contacted the other mods to discuss before action is taken.

    Did you PM Onkle about this before posting in Help Desk? He may have been able to explain this all to you.

    Hi Sarason

    I banned the user in question but for some reason it didn't apply, maybe I was concentrating too hard on adding comedic effect to my ban message.

    Another user has been banned this evening for blatant sexism and we thank you for your reporting of posts

    Yes Bonkey. Thanks to Onkle and Chris for sorting this. I presumed he got away with the ban when he posted again.

    Thanks again.
