Rather than acknowledging that they have allowed the atmosphere which caused such a situation they go around throwing bans at people who ask genuine questions about how this place could be improved.

Then they have the audacity to claim the moral high ground by claiming that certain threads are “not the place” to ask these questions.

If I were moderating a message board which has resulted in people genuinely concerning for the welfare of another user (one which I’d tried to wind up in the past) id be ashamed of myself rather than trying to cover it up and deflecting attention to others.

Nice theory, but I'm afraid its complete bollocks, particularly the first line.

It seems like you are spoiling for a row, again. Just know your next ban will be a long one.

Your inability to accept criticism is disappointing

Your ability to bore the rest of us rigid is staggering. GIVE IT UP! Go and set your own Board up if you don't like this one.

Saying that, I don’t lose sleep over it. It’s not that important.

It's high time the great boarding public were given a vote on this gargantuan bureaucratic behemoth

It’s high time that people grew up and realised that it is an independent forum.

If you don’t like it then f*** off eleswhere.

If you had conclusive proof that I have other accounts on here you would have banned me ages ago. You don’t, because I don’t.

Your extreme defensiveness on this thread proves my initial point nicely. Thank you.

We have conclusive IP matches. Which is why I'm quite comfortable in saying who you are / were. You're allowed on here because quite frankly, we don't have the time or energy to keep going through the same nonsense of banning you weekly and then finding you've re-registered with another email / username. Quite happy to find the energy if you really want.
