Banned but not forgotten
Hey just throwing this out there - there were a few members of this forum that contributed a lot in the past but for their bad judgement F- up they are now banned from posting. Is there any way they can be reinstated? Namely Woodshed for his maybe overwhelmed business practice and Rad for just being Rad

It would be nice. Not my house though.
No more from me on it.

Re: Banned but not forgotten
Yeah well this is a touchy subject to discuss but Having been banned elsewhere I can kind of relate . Its a bit like a bad relationship . Often you know its bad / sour / uncomfortable / not what you want but you hang in there anyway . You get bitter and twisted and part of you wants to leave but you are so entangled in it that you can't . You find yourself saying and doing things that subconsciously reflect your feelings until .... Boom ... the other partner says , " I've had enough of putting up with your shit " .
Relief to both parties . ....: only the friends of you both feel the sadness

Re: Banned but not forgotten
I too learnt a great deal from both the Shed and Rad, but I think its nice that the rules apply equally to everyone, It would be very easy to be more lenient with good friends and great contributes.
Kudos to the team keeping the place in order.

Re: Banned but not forgotten
Careful, barreldawg , or someone may take you to the woodshed.
Re: Banned but not forgotten
Maybe you are right. I would like to hear what Rad has to say about this.Yummyrum wrote: Relief to both parties . ....: only the friends of you both feel the sadness
I do not remember Woodshed, but Rad could be very nasty to new members with stupid... sorry: ignorant questions.
On the other hand: he was quite experienced. And talk is just talk, so what's the problem.
I see his name sometimes in the row of attendants, so he is reading sometimes.
I have been banned myself from several fora for different reasons. The last time from a moonshinersforum, because I said something about iron and safety.
Before that from a catloversforum. Because I did not own a cat! I was very happy that a forum is not the real world, for I would have viewed a mob with scythes, hayforks etc to lynch me! "Oh my precious childs, my cats!" and "I pray that you will rot in hell as soon as possible!" Although deathwishes were expressly forbidden, I was the one that got banned. I was the fox in the hens shed, I think.
A forum clearly is not a place where democracy rules. Or good sense.
More like a pub, where the owner decides who can come in or is banned.

Re: Banned but not forgotten
Kareltje,
feel free to start a new thread about sweet cat pics and movies in the off-topic section. You can have here you very own catlovers forum!
But be careful not to post something political there, right? These discussions only divide people and quickly lead to flaming and hard feelings.
And rule 7 please! No talk about different races please!

The one smurf center in the background, the non-colour with spots of the other non-colour is called Vlekje (Spotty). He/she/it is the playmate of the smurf Broekje.
The two pilarlike pinkish things on the right behind Broekje are the legs of a woman.
You see: I do have a heart and my life is full of smurfs.

Ok. Now this threads getting good.

I've been a member of a professional forum for 18 years and in my trade for 31 years. the thing that has gotten under my skin and almost banned a couple times, are the newbies who ask, without doing the research, or taking the time to look up information, a question or bring up a topic that has been answered a thousand times, then want to argue with you about how they do it and it's worked for them blah blah blah after you give them the correct and proper answer for the 1001 time.Rad could be very nasty to new members with stupid... sorry: ignorant questions.
On the other hand: he was quite experienced. And talk is just talk, so what's the problem.
Same thing happens here and sometimes you just don't have the desire to answer for the 1002 time and get a little short with them. Yeah it's just words but as an expert, you have to hold your tongue and answer that question.. one..more..time..
Re: Banned but not forgotten
as a member in good standing you are not required to read and/or reply to any given post. Just like your daddy taught ya, if you can't say something nice (or at least factual in a courteous manner) say nothing at all.Pesty wrote:I've been a member of a professional forum for 18 years and in my trade for 31 years. the thing that has gotten under my skin and almost banned a couple times, are the newbies who ask, without doing the research, or taking the time to look up information, a question or bring up a topic that has been answered a thousand times, then want to argue with you about how they do it and it's worked for them blah blah blah after you give them the correct and proper answer for the 1001 time.Rad could be very nasty to new members with stupid... sorry: ignorant questions.

I am grateful to the mods for cleaning house. I pretty much only come here to read because of getting jumped on by a certain member and hin minions just because my opinion was different than his. There are aspects of this hobby that I could have contributed lots to but instead have been just reading and maybe offering a little advice by PM's. This is due to the way myself and other newbies were being treated. I for one do not miss one of the aforementioned members and thank the mods for making this forum a better place to learn and share.
I am getting off my soapbox and again taking up residence on lurkers couch. This is the last you will hear from me on the subject as I will not be drawn down the rabbit hole. I just wanted to make sure that the mods knew that not everyone was sentimental about both people mentioned in this thread.
I believe MCH may have said it best. "It's your hooch, you get to choose."

Re: Banned but not forgotten
If anyone wants their advice on a subject, it is probably already here as long as they have the nounce to search the forum for it and it hasn't been deleted. What we do miss out on, is where they are at in their current thinking. I don't know about you lot, but I owe it to myself that I have the right to change my opinion on any subject, regardless of how adamant was about it at the time.

Re: Banned but not forgotten
Yes. This is the real loss we have. For example the failed marbles experiment a few weeks ago. Rads comment would be very interesting. And who knows, he often came up with a new idea. Not only 5 or 10 years ago when from our view today it looks like it was easy perhaps to find something new. Also the last years.NZChris wrote:What we do miss out on, is where they are at in their current thinking.
