Banned from Forums

marco murphy

What... why was i banned from forums.
Am i not allowed to speak the truth about a mod.
Sick of it.

steveland?

It might have something to do with you whinging to ecksor about the Islam forum on IRC...

Gordon

You thanked me for making an effort to keep people on topic and then you went way off topic. Not helpful at all to the forum request.

marco murphy

How could i not man. I was being told by several people i was in the wrong when clearly i wasnt...

It wasnt me who went off topic by accusing members of being the same.

I wasnt whinging about anything, why do some of you people exagerate everything

Gordon

Staying off topic is just the same as taking the thread off topic imo. Usually this isn't much of a problem but when people have been asked to stay on topic it is natural that one would be banned for being off topic.

marco murphy

So i was to just ignore Fuzzyboys words?

Gordon

You should have stayed on topic.

marco murphy

So thats the forum flushed down the toilet now?

Gordon

I'm not sure why you think that its creation depends on your input into the request thread.

However, the thread is still open for now.

marco murphy

I never stated such therefore i dont think it depends on me.
Well you did say it doesnt help the thread.
Amazing what can happen when one trys to defend ones own reputation.

If that statement were true, then the forum would not be needed.

If it's a worthy addition to boards, it'll be carried on by all the other interested parties support-wise.

If it needs you to stay alive in the forums thread, it's hardly a justified forum...

It's amazing to think that you wouldn't be banned for going way off topic after another user had been banned for the exact same thing previously.

marco murphy

He was throwing around stupid accusations i had no idea that was why he was banned.

marco murphy

May i add that this is the first time ive requested a forum or even visited the forums board. Therefore i dont know the run of things. Iam on the verge of leaving this place. i request something relevent and i am called '' The ****tard requesting an islam forum'' and all sorts. This is exactly what fuzzboy wanted.

WhiteWashMan

well, more fool you then....

are you now waging a one man war against forums in the light of the ira handing in their guns.
i must pop onto the politics board and see what all the ra heads have to asy about this u-turn. although, i am glad that my constant telling of people that the ira should get a new spin doctor seems to have worked. i knew it was an insideous plan when i first thought of it

marco murphy

What in the name of god are you talking about????

Before you do, check out the little triangular icon at the bottom left of all the posts. Rather than defending your reputation in the thread that wasn't designed for that purpose, you should have used that button to report the offensive post and left the relevant people deal with it.

That's a general rule that applies to all forums. The button is present on all posts throughout the site (except for those you post yourself).

shouldnt that be 'in the name of allah'?

Take a chill pill. You were not the only one to get banned. Wait out the week and come back in if you need to.

Generally if your told to keep on topic then best thing to do is just that. Yea it can kill you that some muppet before you had posted something that you are dying to reply to and clear your name/reputation on but you just take it to PM or to a forum that is more on the subject (in your case not available yet).

trying to argue it as unfair just gives the likes of WWMan a new playtoy.

i ve been lower.

then again, ive been much higher. i like to think of myself as multilevelled.

i work on so many levels.

but sometimes, toilet humour is funny.

marco murphy

What level?
And allah is god if you knew anything on the subject :rolleyes:

EDIT: This is just getting stupid now.
Iam sorry to have went of topic

dude the topic was put off topic by other people before Poblachtach and if you are going to ban everyone someone for putting a thread off topic you'd probably have to ban everyone on boards.ie =/

Dude, how many people went off topic after I asked them to stay on topic?

Have you been reading many posts on this thread and the thread concerned or just a couple?

marco murphy

It is on boards if people have been asked to stay on topic by a mod.
