I mean...I conduct business on here, as well as on any other public forums, as if I were talking to the person face-to-face.
No swearing, no name-calling, no 'talking down' to anyone.
I have never been banned from a public forum. Truth be told, there are times where I TRIED to get banned, but only because the forum was of no use to me. However, it didn't work.
That was...until I came on here.
I have it as a bookmark on my laptop. I logged in, and it came up with the following:
You are banned from this forum (or something like that).
HUH???
Must have been a glitch in the system because I have had no problems getting on here.
But, to be banned...I didn't recall doing anything wrong. Normally, I would get a message/email, saying that conduct like this is not tolerated. As such, I would get a warning. If I did it again, I would be banned.
Weird.

It's a glitch. I've seen that message a few times.

Remember when innocuous people would get those red warnings on IMDb and then post questions about why in a wild panic? I always found their naivete kind of sweet.

I have been banned from many NBA Forums.
I am highly passionate and knowledgeable when it comes to the NBA.
I'm 67 years old and have been following the NBA for 55 years.
I mostly get pissed at the kids that are trying to tell me about the game, but oddly enough, it's a guy that's older than I am that winds up getting me banned, because he is a shill for the team I root for, and he knows so much less about the NBA than I.
I always get into an argument with him that makes me crazy, and I start insulting his intelligence, his willingness to kiss ass, his heritage and his sexual proclivities.
But that's who I am, and that's life.

I've been banned lots of times, no big deal. There are a million forums on the net, any one particular forum or other makes no difference to me. Besides, if I really wanted back in I would just use another email and my VPN - but I've never cared about any forum enough to bother doing this.
BTW what's this "warning level" business all about?

I was once threatened with banning from what I presume was an automated moderator because I called myself an "idiot."
