I hear what you're saying.
On motiv... I don't think he helps his own cause much when he tries signing up as an alt and posting what he does...
he was a good forum character back then though I agree.
Spam?

if you were a stupid person then I could understand this, but you are far from that and imho get exactly what you deserve, grow up ffs or if this place causes you too much grief then take wee rest from it (will this do any good, I doubt it) but you seem to exist for this very purpose, whingeing and moaning about others!!!
Yoga, VernonsBoots, Motiv et al were "interesting" characters. There's interesting and there's "interesting".
"Interesting" usually gets you banned with good reason, plus it's someone else's decision why they were banned outright, not our decision to allow them back IMO otherwise it undermines previous mods.

I'd have Yoga back.
Yes his views on the Pope were not popular with some of the more 'precious' posters, but I would have thought he'd served his time by now. Didn't we once give a banned poster a reprieve?

Don't suppose you've a link to that have you?
Hadn't we banned that poster in the first place? Plus he sent a grovelling letter and £250

I can't find a thread as such, just look at his posts from his username for that bud.
I DID find this thread from 2010...

It looks like WIBG has now been banned.
IMO...
The best way to deal with all the petty arguments is to move them to off topic and then let people do/say what they want there but without closing any threads; just let the threads run their course I say. Surely by closing threads early it just means certain posters are waiting for the opportunity to bite back at another user? It's off topic so it's not doing any harm; in fact I bet a fair few people read the off topic section purely for the bitch fights! No point trying to police it because it's always going to happen, just try and keep it off the main forum(s) so it doesn't get in the way of any decent discussion.
Re deleting posts - not noticed that occurring but some users have said it's the case? Can't say I agree with that, seems a bit OTT.
Re WUMs - sometimes they can be funny but when it's excessive, like in WIBGs case, it seems a tad weird. Having said that, you've only got yourself to blame if you take the bait. WUMs thrive off the bites they get so the simple solution is to not give them any.
It would appear that being a mod is a thankless task though so fair play for volunteering for it.

Cheers... Bit livlier back then wasn't it?........ Banned for taking the piss out of a Religious leader?....... Isn't that what IS do now ( or chop their heads off, same thing really )? ... The hierarchy on here were no better than radical Islam.... Double standards if you ask me.

He was banned for also posting over and over that I was masturbating over a laminated picture of my God.
He was a lovely character.

Far better bud.
Certain posters spat dummies out and reported him over and over, and from what I remember the mods at the time had a 'religions' slant to them and he was gone.

If true then the forum has hit a new low.
Still on the bright side it will stop certain posters getting finger strain from reporting time and time again him though.

Is that the case, mods?
The word `banned` seems to be where custom titles go..like Mossy`s.

Why " laminated " ?
Yes, I can confirm that WIBG is currently banned from the forum. However, the moderation team only discuss the reasons for the ban with the individual poster, so don't bother asking why!!
