Wow, a 2 year suspension? That's a long time!
I don't imagine I'll be around much longer. Someone complained about sacrament meeting talks, so I just posted a satirical article someone had written on the Common Consent blog, and I got my knuckles rapped. If warmed-over satire like this is out of bounds, then what's the point?

I would have been pretty bummed if I got banned for posting something someone else had written. If I go out, I want it to be for something really good. ;)

You got a warning for posting satire from the bloggernacle? Somebody over there has their cranky pants on.

Those cranky pants are getting crusty! I thought Cinepro's post was a hoot since it seems so accurate for many Sacrament meeting talks.

I doubt they ban you cinepro. You're basically tenured on that board due to popularity and number of posts (quite like Dale, Tarski, Dude, and other posts who got a few thousand posts under their belt),

I wouldn't be so sure. The number of posts and the length of time seem to be irrelevant to the issue of banning.

What's this nonsense? I was suspended a little over two years ago for two years. In theory, my suspension should be up, but that has mysteriously been turned into a perma-ban.
Shall I bake a cake or just settle for cheese and crackers?

Every so often they seem to go through a housecleaning of sorts and just get rid of people they don't care for. There's no specific reason for being banned (at least none stated), but you just can't post anymore. Happened to me.

So, what is your beef? Are you complaining?
have you ever been a member, being in sacrament,EldersQ.,Relief society?
Don't you remember sitting like a sheep, Sunday after Sunday?
Yea, MADD was a huge improvement for an intellectual discussion. The problem is "SpringCleaning"
is began per Juliann's order. The mods are happy to oblige.
They have little toleration to "Critical thinking". Cognitive Dissonance duits them just fine.
