Think it was because of what he said in the 'BCF clique' thread

How many regulars have been banned now? With the exception of the bloke who was giving that homosexual chap a hard time I believe the bannings are all to the detriment of the forum.

Gonna stick my neck out here and say that this is the first banning I have disagreed with, I know he said some harsh things to G, but then loads of members have had disputes and neither of them get banned. I hate conspiracy stories but I do smell a tad double standards here.

This forum has been fucked up past couple of days and I am sure I am not the only one who is quite bewildered why it has gotten to this level. Smile

Seems like a thoroughly reasonable adult way to go about things so why ban him?

Don't unban him! I made a post saying I didn't like his VFR as I knew he can't reply. Laughing

He'd been posting about 'having it out' with G via PM so I wonder if that may have caused his banning.

Because certain people were deliberately "pushing it", after a month or twos worth of deliberately confrontational and insulting postings. Someone mentioned in another thread(probably the clique one) about rebeling against authority... I'd pretty much agree with that.

So them being "regular posters" somehow makes it more harsh to have banned them? Whitetrash had been posting regularly for a while, but most of what he'd been posting was consistantly abusive and confrontational. Can't say I'll miss him, which is an opinion i'm sure many people will share.

If you look at how I quoted it above you will notice that it was not put how your making it out. From what I can see he was genuinely looking to get a resolution - not a confrontation. He stopped posting in the clique thread to stop a fight. Not to start one. A commendable action Thumbs Up

It was an observation that they were regular posters and an opinion that they added plenty to the forum. Yoda made me laugh, Dr Nick knew useful stuff and Whitetrash had good banter. However offtopic they may have gotten a resolution should have been sought rather than a ban. Thats the sort of thing that pisses folk off (as is very evident at the moment) which can't be a good thing.

I think a definate step back is needed from those who should know better and think - hey this is a forum about bikes and bikers - are these bans really necessary now that certain folk know the limits?

Then you have a problem - this forums growth was built on a different atmosphere than to the current one. This change has been fairly recent - last couple of months.

Double standards and fairness should be avoided if the forum is to grow both in quality and population.

i didnt want to start another one of these "discussions" i just wanted to find out why he was banned!

I think we should forget about this whole thing and go back to la la happiness and talk about bikes!

After all we are all part of the same clique and thats bikers!

One of his last posts was:
Personally i think you should stick your Kama up your fucking Arse G

And the other post he made about PMs suggested he wanted to have a slagging match:
Perhaps You should PM me some time G, Tell me what you really think, i can do the same then we can both keep out of each others way.


Hardly the posts of somebody looking to avert a potential argument, and get on with other people rather than insulting them all the time Rolling Eyes

Well they obviously didn't know the limits because they got banned Confused And I doubt unbanning them straight away would help, as they'd probably be even more abusive due to being angry at being banned.

The comment about keeping out of each others way seems like fair play to me.

Myself wrote:

They now know the limits of what can and cannot be done in Korns playground. They should be allowed to come back to play if they are going to "behave" as those 3 individuals each added something different to the sauce.

If this site were a political system, it would not be a democracy, it would be a benign dictatorship.

There is no constitution and nobody gets to vote.

I like it that way Thumbs Up

Up till a couple of weeks ago... it was a democracy. The Karma system took care of bannings, hiding threads/posts etc. As G said in another thread - all his "moderation" involves usually is moving posts between forums.

JammyG's banning was a suprise to me - however I accept his behaviour was not acceptable, and needed action. I also accept I probably didn't know the whole story - I rarely go into IRC and miss some threads. Everyone does.

Yoda & DrNick's banning should have made everyone aware that JammyG's incident was not a one-off - should have shown that you can no longer be an ass and get away simply loosing a couple of blobs of Kama.

Whitetrash wasn't a suprise as he was clearly going the same way as the others.

Let's hope everyone now has the message, and the forum can drop back to normality. I seriously hope it dosn't all fall apart now, as I was looking forward to meeting some of you this summer.

Craig
