Current affairs ban

    Hi I got banned from the current affairs forum for one week for being uncivil. Reason I was accused of being uncivil was that I made a post calling for those involved in anti social behaviour in Blanchardstown to be deported. This was considered to be racist by the moderator in question Necro. I would not consider calling for deportations of people involved in criminal behaviour to be racist.

    Have you attempted to resolve this directly with the mod via PM?

    Dear GT89,

    You have been banned from Current Affairs/IMHO for one week for being uncivil.

    Typically, this means that you are posting in a needlessly aggressive or confrontational manner being disruptive on the forum or causing stress for the other members. We don't want that here.

    For more information please refer to the Boards.ie FAQ.

    If you wish to appeal this ban you can see details on how to do so here.

    Moderator Note

    Take that racist nonsense elsewhere

    Look at this thread. Any person or group of individuals that think this is acceptable behavior need a god sorting out. Iv lived in Blanch all or my life, before the land for the blanch center was ever considered and I never thought I would see what I saw in the blanchardstown centre

    How is it racist?



    Calling for people to be deported? You can take it up in the Dispute Resolution Forum if you want someone else to look at this

    Regards,

    Necro

    Hi

    Thanks for your patience. I am.going to uphold the mod decision here. Your comment was ill conceived at best. You need to start putting a bit more thought into what you post rather than dropping 1 liners into threads that you know will rile people up.
    You are building up a bit of a record on boards at this stage and have not taken the lessons as of yet. Hopefully you will this time.

    If you would like an admin review let us know.
