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

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?

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].

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.

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...

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

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

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.

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.

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!

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?
