anyone else been banned from TWO FORUMS
"Rupert" wrote in message oups.com... HAHA Must laugh,found myself banned this morning,seems Freedom of speech is not allowed there. Told a moderator didn't like his attitude to people there,he couldn't take it that i critized him and banned me,pathetic. Strange sort of in club there,seems if you haven't got thousands of posts to your name,your not welcome and you must bow down to the mods. Hmm TWO R.I.P Can you list this particular forums terms and conditions?. Thanks Mike |

I thought you were above the usual idiots Will. 'big Matty H'?? Where did
you get that from then? Don't believe ive ever been called that by anyone other than people that actually know me and have met me. As for banned. Your account is active. You are not banned at all. I remember our argument now you mention it. Although I have moved on. I guess my not agreeing with your easterly that never happened has soured your opinion again? Like I say, ive no axe to grind with you what so ever. No reason to. The only axes I have to grind on here with anyone are being done through the legal proceedure  "Will Hand" wrote in message ...

Actually Will, looking back I may have taken your post somewhat out of
context? Hope so anyway but the lack of smilies on this stupid newsgroup doesnt help matters. I like to think that we have had decent, if rare contact since we had our row and whilst I may sometimes disagree with your comments, I don't recall seeing any that were abusive at all, as you suggest. Just to reiterate though, you were not nearly banned. Some people seem to think I make the banning decisions on TWO. I don't. They are a team decision, I just tend to be more vocal than some of my more refined colleagues, who have the sense to keep a low profile usually :-p The derogatory comments on here about TWO mean nothing to us anyway. It's always the same people, with the same tired old arguments. The forum is strong and succesfull and whilst I can understand that some of the threads or comments on there are not to your taste, your input on there is looked out for i'm sure. Anway, back to the job of co-demon, banning more poor undeserving members from the hell hole of TWO ------ sarcasm ;-) "Will Hand" wrote in message ... "Col" wrote in message ...

"Rupert" wrote Must laugh,found myself banned .........and as a result, we now have 2 million follow up posts. I saw the number of replies to a "non-event" and ignored in toto. Please. Is TWO really worth this level of publicity? Jack |
