How does someone get BANNED from TB??

[guy n. cognito]

You called someone a d***head. How do you think that was misunderstood?

I normally don't discuss warnings with other members, but since you dragged this out into the public, I'll answer it here. Your post broke the forum rules, plain and simple. The warning (a zero point warning, btw) stands because it is against the rules to which you agreed when you signed up. That is all.

This made me giggle.

I'm pretty sure giggling at a mod's post is a violation too .

Interesting that a moderator publicly called me that exact same name in a thread. I did not misunderstand.

The inconsistency of the rules here are legendary. Guess if a mod decided that you are a ******** it's OK .

@RoadRanger I prefer to handle my disputes privately (as suggested by the Mods), so I'm not going to comment any further. I do wish you the best of luck, however.

Huh wa?? Were you trolling us?

I have been accused of that, but I am innocent !!

LOL, are you referring to my "Notta Troll Club" in the humor forum that was mysteriously threadlocked?

Lowness, you are wrong at best, deliberately misrepresenting at worst.
Given you yourself admit you've received some warnings, you would know that the following text is at the bottom of every single warning sent from site:

David - it looks like this thread went down a road I didn't intend so perhaps it should be closed. It was originally meant for humor purposes.

I once got an infraction for using profanity when I posted a word that was mostly asterisks.

Wasn't that the thread you started asking teens to identify themselves so you could put them all on your ignore list? : D

Naw, keep it goin' - you have to have a good sense of humor to hang here . It's all good fun until someone gets butthurt

...and there you went doin' it again. "No no, bad bass playa !!"

Hey, let's play the TB guessin' game and list all the words we think you can't post. I'll start off with ****, ****, ****, *****, and ********. They don't count if they are in the profanity filter here .

From the content, that doesn't mean much.

Well, that was not my best idea. However, the thread was deleted because of nasty responses (and possibly the moderator faux pas)....not because of things I said. I would prefer free speech, but the rules of site are pretty clear on cussin', cousin.

 

[Thunderscreech]

I got banned for breaking rules after being warned various times. But that was like...dang, 8 years ago or so?

Mostly what I did was just act a fool and be an immature, meme-spouting troll.

Well OK then. LOL

I'm pretty sure you're mistaken on your role in that thread being locked.
