You might as well make a slow walk for there now  :snowman:

I never understood why they don't want lists of banned members expect to draw away from there over all total
it would be bad for business.  noobs would see how many have been banned and then they wouldn't post.
Misunderstood.

here you can tell who has asked to have their account deleted.  they show up as guests in their posts.
as far as i know we don't make it a habit to ban or to delte posts.  that is what alex does, not us.
Misunderstood.

And they expect us to be psychics about who has been banned. Talk about a WP member that is banned, you might get a PM saying it is against the rules to talk about banned members. Reply back saying you didn't know he or she was banned, you might get another PM and get accused of blowing off the mods. That's what happened with me. Then I was banned after that. I tell about it in the "Blocked from WP" thread.

Yes these mods have been told we don't know who has been banned so how are we supposed to know who not to talk about if we don't know who is banned. They don't listen. It's not that hard to understand or are they too stupid? Too stupid to listen because their TOM is that bad?

It be better to send a PM to inform the member that member is banned whom they talked about.

I think there needs to be consistency.

There needs to be some sort of order. A list to all of the current moderators.
"moderator" to be removed for the names of people who aren't.. it stll says it under PMS Elles name there.
and a red X and "banned" on every single member who is banned.

They can't tell you off for that.. its not fair if you can't tell who is or isnt banned.

Thanks Renaeden  :2thumbsup:

Someone told me i could reply with smileys so  :asthing: seems appropriate. I did WP now I'm coming to do you :eyebrows: I think the main problem with WP is that they're al a bunch of weirdos, sort that out and everything else will fall into place ;)

I looked at some of my posts there and my avvy and profile doesn't have any mention of banning or look any different at all. I'd always thought a fair percentage of the 'new memebers' would be sock puppets and banned members returning.

I don't think it really is a support site it's more of a quagmire site, never ending shitfest and the more people they drag into it the better. Was it just me or did anyone else notice how the price of the server doubled  all of a sudden? Or did I miss summat?

Fuck it, who cares eh?  :yawn:

The main attraction of I2 is that we're all a bunch or weirdos and we know it.  :eyebrows:

Glad you noticed the irony sir  :thumbup:

One thing I wont miss will be constantly trying and failing to be polite all the time. One thing I will miss is the lovely blue colour.

Alex's friend made the new server.

Hi Zygomatic Major.

 :welcome:

I think it's not that hard to join the band of the banned from WP.  All you have to do is compare them to a bad daytime soap opera, for example.

I agree about the new members being mostly people making more and more sockpuppet accounts, either because their first accounts were banned or just to troll.

When you get unfairly banned, and then ignored.  It doesn't leave people with a lot of choice.  The bad words about Alex is spreading nicely accross the internet anyway.

 :agreed:

Also, I think it's idiotic to have a rule that you can't discuss banned members there or you will be banned yourself when you have no way of even knowing who the banned ones are. 

It sounds to me like an attempt to cover up how many members have been banned.
