The mod should have sent you a PM.
Did you check your inbox?

Ban will be lifted if you havnt been totally banned from Boards altogether after a week.

Keu,
in the past you have made sound contributions to threads. I am really surprised that you would take actions towards a ban.
In the charter it clearly states that if you take the thread off topic, which you completely did, you will earn a ban.
I expect this from newbies and will give them warning if they are not total spammers but I must say that you deserve the ban not only for going off topic with that link but for Bating myself and trying to instigate a total thread downward spiral.

Next friday the ban will be lifted

looks like i got your ban for you, funny, because the other nick you registered and spammed creative writing with is still posting there.

it doesn't make much difference to me as a reader more than a contributor of creative writing, but if bans are used to serve a purpose, the actual perpetrator is still lurking in there.

makes no odds to me.

Keu,
posting my private message to yourself on boards is a low step and warrents another week in my book.
As for this comment, I have no idea what you are talking about but if there is a troll about it is my job to find them and sort them out so you neednt worry yourself about it.
It's amazing how one comment can change your opinion about someone.

:rolleyes:

Nothing like completely uncalled for personal insults is there Mr Pudding? Or do you have a bee in your bonnet about something? If so why not share it with me via a PM.

if i was banned from the forum because i'm apparently pancakeman then thats slightly ridiculous. checking previous posts, i have posted in the same minute as pancakeman, which would be quite an achievement if i had been writing them both.

The femmdejour , who recvd a warning in a pm, and KEU who got a 1 week ban for bating and going off topic. Keu got a pm, didnt Keu just get out of muppet prison? I am surprised.

whoever femmedejour is went into creative writing and posted three messages on the same thread and then asked how long it would be before he/she got banned, it seemed obvious to me it was the same chap who originally started this thread and who reregistered under a different nick in order to go back to creative writing to protest, I responded by posting a link directing him/her back to this thread.
I wasn't "bating you" and I didn't take the thread off topic, feemedejour did.

I agree.

femmedejour registered the same night you started this thread and gathered 29 posts in the space of half an hour including this one.
then went into creative writing where he/she criticised someones poem, referenced this thread and asked how long it would be till he/she got banned (in reference to this thread and for criticising the poem) in the space of three posts.

I said..."about this long.." and pasted this link there.
femmedejour hasn't been banned btw.

Whats wrong with that post? i'm just getting to know the site. And i was temporarily banned from creative writing but i explained things to beat and he/she understood where i was coming from.
And whoever says that i'm klap trap is just an idiot. I've only been on the site about a day, wanna give me a break? :mad:

all femm wanted was a description of the phone being sold in the thread you linked to keu

your post however added nothing to the thread and if taken up wrongly could be construed as being an accusation of some sort
