[Closed] Yay...popped my STW ban cherry....

'Thought police' tag?

Really?

*sigh*

Na Jamie - he means Chipps 😉

Banned for mentioning the thing that can't be mentioned

Never been banned. Ever 🙂

Be careful not to mention the thing that must not be mentioned then...

I have never even alluded to the thing that cannot be mentioned.

I've blocked it.

I've never been banned. Am I the STW version of Susan Boyle?

I was banned for linking to a video containing swearing.

mike, your better looking........just! lol

never been banned myself although i dont know what must not be said i have to say, so what must not be said?

I was banned for putting up a picture of a gas chamber. Apparently that offended people.
I was then later banned for a weekend for something else, but I cant remember what.

I'm a reformed character.

I was banned for "hacking" the old site (posting as other people's user names). 😳
Oh and publicly pointing out that the old site was open to XSS attacks.

(But it was purely "white hat" stuff and I hopefully redeemed myself as part of the lynch mob that helped track down the "black hat" who took out the old site).

I was warned but not banned for mentioning a particular mountain bike event taking place in the New forest on the weekend of August 22nd/23rd with only 500 tickets for sale and over £10,000 worth of prizes so far.

I haven't mentioned it since*

*except when it seemed appropriate

I was warned but not banned for mentioning a particular mountain bike event taking place in the New forest on the weekend of August 22nd/23rd

You're having a laff, surely? Said event is basically an evolution of last year's STW Festival, you'd have thought they'd want their names all over it?

I wsa banend fro avodinig the swe4r f1lt3r

(Max and Paddy) 'doin' bird, as per'

mountain bike event taking place in the New forest

whats this? I live nearby? Is it a race?

I was banned for being really annoying. Which I took as a fit compliment :o)

I was banned for telling Adam G to [censored]

I was nealry banned for repeatedly posting a picture of a birds tits and a moots seatpost

whats this? I live nearby? Is it a race?

WCA can't talk about it, as that would be promotion.
But presumably I can talk freely about it as I'm not affiliated (or even going) - so it's [url= http://www.bigbikebash.co.uk ]Big Bike Bash 2009[/url].

I think rather than banning people they should be put to bed early & their pocket money stopped,it's what [u]children[/u] hate most.....
🙄

After starting a thread about keebabs......someone complained 😕

if ure banned, what are you doing here?
banned for a few hours?
are people stuck on here enough for that to really matter?

I keep getting into arguments, so ive given up posting.
generally out of 5 posts written, only 2 get posted, the others get deleted cause i cant be bothered with the vocal objection to opinion people seem to have on here.
should i delete this one......
i'll treat myself.

I'm not in a band, really I struggled with music if I am being honest.

I keep getting into arguments, so ive given up posting.

no you don't, and you haven't!

vocal objection to opinion people seem to have on here.

it might be the content of your opinions they object to, rather than your ability to have them...

like chavs wearing their tags over their trousers you willy waving bad assess get my utter respect

I've never been banned - although re-registering after the aforementioned 'black hat' incident took 3 months... (i was starting to take it personally)

BTW what did happen to the perpetrator of the black hat incident or is that one of the things that must not be mentioned?

avoiding swear filter and having a pop at some numpty!

or is that one of the things that must not be mentioned?

there's only one thing that cannot be mentioned but obviously we can't tell you what it is...

I've not been banned yet, if I was it would make me feel very immature.

For threatening another user with my school minibus!

Not been banned, as far as I know, just been on holiday on a scotish skiing site. Cant even escape simonfbarnes there. Link to the boggtrotters Helvellyn ride in a snow patch watching thread. Dont think you can be banned for being boring so looks like I'm in for the summer.

are people stuck on here enough for that to really matter?

Yup!

I think you may have misunderstood the purpose of a forum (particularly this one). Voicing opinions and healthy debate is all good. It's the main reason I keep coming back. Personally there is nothing worse than a thread where everyone agrees. I disagree with almost everything certain folk on here say ([i]*cough*[/i] RudeBoy [i]*cough*[/i]) but it would be much duller without them here to challenge my opinions.

i have no idea whether or not i have ever been banned. should one enquire or would that lead to a banning?

it's a real catch 22 isn't it, yossarian 😉

Lol - I love that people were banned for mentioning Dig Dyke Dash (or the other one). I mean, it did seem to pop up a lot in conversation, but even so!

Never but have been told to behave a few times.

Never but have been told to behave a few times.

Images of Austin powers and you there drac. Oh, behave!

Chuckles at Junkyard. 🙂

Perhaps we should all try and get banned for this weekend - maybe if we all bombard the swear filter it will become clogged and need someone like DynoRod to unblock said filter?

Just a thought of course - I don;t actually expect people to do it - or will they?

i got banned after (i suspect) a certain french man on here got all uppety after i (aparently) insinuated french people smelt bad.

thread got pulled too.

toys, prams, and all that... 🙄

You're absolutely right.

I agree

Swearing 🙁

[img] [/img]

5 times, picking fights I think though they didn't tell me why.

lifetime ban for pointing out that the search windows were a bit confusing on the old site - main one on forum page didn't search the forum. Also got hate mail for it from other members as well!

(Peeks into thread, sidles off quietly, hoping no-one will notice...)

Reckon you must hold the record eh Fred? 😉

It appears to have become fashionable in the last couple of weeks to ban me for swearing (2 bans in about 2 weeks)

Fair enough - there's no disputing that I swear too much. And the rules couldn't be clearer, ie : no swearing allowed, if you do you're banned.

So if you don't want to be banned, then don't swear - it's not exactly 'rocket science' is it ?

All I need to do is decide whether, I insist on being 'me' or whether I'm prepared to be someone else.

Because whilst I'm perfectly capable of carrying out a conversation without the use of profanities (especially when in 'polite company') I find it exceptionally hard when I find myself rubbing shoulders with gypsy-hating crypto-fascist racist social snobs. It just isn't me. Consequently I feel that every post I post on the more [i]controversial issues[/i], is just a countdown to my next ban.

gg. Are you a teenager?

If only at heart?

Oh, and the last time I banned for swearing, the 'offending' post was left as I had posted it .... un-moderated !

Which [i]did[/i] make me laugh as I thought, "the mods are taking the p1ss".

And few people appreciate 'p1ss-taking' more than me 😀

Immature in so many ways cynic-al .......

gg said p1ss - Ban him, ban him

banned for seeing if you could add swear words to tags. You can and I got banned.
😯

Not been banned (yet) even after i said that i would quite happily stab hora, (with ref to his Devil Dog thread) but i think that is because most of us feel like that.. 😉

Never banned but had a thread pulled after forestry commission solicitors wrote to the ed and thought i had besmurched the image of the then trail ranger at Coed y Brenin by suggesting I knew him to be an unqualified charlatan without much of a clue and was surprised he had landed Dafydd Davis's job instead of the previous locally based riders who had actually been paid to work managing the trails .... was I right.. he left Coed y Brenin recently after a long bout of sick leave and is was last heard of applying for a job on an oil rig in the North Sea.. I would doubt Shell Oil will be writing to the editor on the occasion of this post.. if however the thread goes down this time.. sorry guys I should have kept my lips zipped and fingers folded

Banned about 4 times, mostly for posting pictures of laydeez with little on, the first being some rather nice upskirts of celebs but it was Friday and I thought it might pass....it didn't.
Recently for abuse of the tags, actually abuse of someone in the tags 😈

twice
0nce for posting porn, when it turned out to be swiss tony.
once for questioning our leaders....

Banned once, when i let sc-xc sit at my keyboard.

Once, the old forum and I was on the second bottle of whisky so no boundaries for thought nor language.

i got banned for a Julia Bradbury thread.........

I got banned for telling the most offensive joke I know.

what's that tj?

just got back from my second banning in 3 days 1 for swearing and another for making another account while this was blocked but i said it was my brothers so banned for using someone elses account =0
