I have been banned
« on: November 23, 2015, 09:16:19 PM »
For those of you who don't know, I am an alt of mikeman7918.  Long story short, I failed at testing the gulability of flat earthers.  I just figured out that my main account has been permanently banned with no explenation.  I think whoever did it meant to ban this account, but accidentally banned my main account.  Could a moderator please fix this by banning this account and unbanning my mileman7918 account?

Looks like the alt isn't the reason for the ban, if the alt posts freely. Month long, non-permaban for mikeman, permaban for the alt: not permaban for Mike and nothing for the alt.

You failed at spelling 'the gullibility of flat earthers', let alone testing it...

But, as this is 'suggestions & concerns', here is my suggestion: stop whining & take your ban like a man.

Plus: LOL!!!

So, you tried to show we were gullible, and we ended up being smart enough to see through your lies. Ironic, really. Maybe you should think twice before rejecting everything we say on principle.

I certainly am unbanned now.  Maybe another moderator beat you to it?  I don't know what happened, but thanks anyway.  Feel free to ban namekim25 if you haven't, I don't plan on using that account ever again.

Well, now I know that the rules & regs here are pretty much worthless.

So it's a good job I've never read them, eh?

It would have been a complete waste of my time.

At least I've learnt something today...

If it was the other way around and a flat-earther was not banned for a month per the rules, round-earthers would be screaming favoritism. Just fyi.

Not really. No one seems to care about the alt rule: i've been accused countless times, but there's never been a cry of "So ban him!" for me, or any of the other alts that've been unearthed.

Are you saying the accusations are true? Most of the time I just trust the word of the alts because I assume moderators can see IP addresses. So if the majority of people think 1 user is an alt but they don't get banned, I assume they are wrong and the moderators know to not ban because of IP address.

Are you confessing to being an alt? If so, then I say, "BAN HIM!"

Forget it.

Just understand that the rules & regs here are completely arbritrary & biased towards the longest-standing round earther trolls here.

Maybe because some people are actually pleasant to get along with.

And are you answering for Jroweskeptic when you say "forget it" ??

Some are: there are plenty of admitted alts, and never investigation. The only alts I can recall actually being banned was one who was just trolling, and one who was impersonating another member.

What's that got to do with anything?

Is this a social club?

This place is over-run with sock-puppets & everyone knows it - except the mods, somehow.

And if you think mikeman, sokarul, markjo, mainframes, etc are 'pleasant to get along with' you must be insane.

Or REALLY like people with Compulsive Lying Disorder?

All I know is that the 'rules & regs' are worthless; this has been definitively proven today.

Now; I suggest you carry on enjoying your 'pleasantries' with psychotic Liars.

Toodle-pip!

You're not supposed to create an alt in the first place. In accordance with the forum rules your main account has been temporarily suspended, and this alt of yours permanently. Please do not create another alt to circumvent this ban.

Case closed.
