OT - How do I know if I've been banned??

Why did he get banned?

person_who_is_obnoxiously_self-impressed bag :gossip:

He's not all that bad. (shrug)

 

I didn't get a real good impression of the guy reading some of his retarded posts.

He's actually pretty smart when isn't baked up like a pan of brownies. Don't get me wrong, he's definitely got issues and I don't mean funny books. :insane:

Just noticed Architect's post in the mod area that just with subject Hello to which he said goodbye?

 

 

You'll know you're banned if a mod send you this message

 

Wrong, sir! Wrong! Under section 37B of the contract signed by you, it states quite clearly that all offers shall become null and void if - and you can read it for yourself in this photostatic copy - "I, the undersigned, shall forfeit all rights, privileges, and licenses herein and herein contained," et cetera, et cetera... "Fax mentis, incendium gloria cultum," et cetera, et cetera... Memo bis punitor delicatum! It's all there! Black and white, clear as crystal! You STOLE Fizzy-Lifting Drinks! You BUMPED into the ceiling, which now has to be washed and sterilized, so you get... NOTHING!!! You lose! GOOD DAY, SIR!

I bought over 80 independants from him and I was satisfied with them. As I stated in my Kudo's posting, most were unbagged and boarded, however, all arrived in very nice condition anyway.

 

Seemed nice enough in PM's I had with him. Didn't read many postings from him though. So I don't know what the banning was about, unless he in fact was a previously banned member.

 

Ya know. Sometimes new people come on here, mess up because they get "surrounded" and hammered from many sides because they did or said something stoopid or without class. Then retaliate to the onslaught with some dumb words and pay for it for a very long time. Matt aka "returner" was one (I went several rounds with him myself). What can a banned member do to reinstate themself after a banning? Apologize? Just go with the flow for a very long time? Suck up a few times by posting little "dreamy cloud" graemlins or posting "sweet books dude" several hundred times?

 

Maybe there should be a "sticky" thread which can be accessed by banned members, that tells them some things they can do to reinstate themselves in good standing. Instead of becoming "shills" with new identities, hiding and avoiding their previous "self".

 

Does that exist on here?

I just hope the Maxx books I bought from him arrive safe and sound! :cry:

 

I got my books yesterday and they were packed well. I thought he was a pretty nice guy and even threw in a freebie for me.

 

That's reassuring! :)

he has always handled transactions very professionally, and has sold some rather expensive books which were still delivered after a previous banning.

banned users can return under a new username so long as they don't exhibit the characteristics that caused them to be banned in the first place.

 

 

technically.

 

 

there are exceptions to this rule, but it's pretty well established by now that if you get banned, you can return so long as you behave yourself

Banning isn't the result of a handful of obnoxious noob posts, it comes after a long history of bad behavior, followed by repeated warnings and strikes from the Mods. In general, people are banned for good reason.

I would disagree with that.

I know that people are banned for good reason. No doubt about it. Except in relation to the last two postings, sometimes they can come back under different ID, and can be banned again because they are a "shill" (using a different ID). Right?

There are people still here who routinely exhibit such behavior.

But you are really funny, so the mods tolerate you.
