I can't get on to MADB. When I log in it says,...

[_Imwashingmypirate]

Ha. tch shocking. I guess they didn't like the sound of me then.

[_Pokatator]

I was banned in the same manner on the infamous Nov. 5, 2006 day of banning. The situation sounds exactly the same. I even had the great Paharon, the great Pah look up my last month of posts. I had a grand total of 9 posts. Even the great Pah admitted that he saw no warning, violations or anything that he found he would justify for banning me.

I claimed that it was because I was posting here and I believe that is still the only reason. I have no desire to read their garbage if something is noteworthy someone seems to bring it here and I can read it here.

Sorry, pirate, I know at first it seems like kind of a slap but really it is an honor.

[_Imwashingmypirate]

I think I did mention MD.

[_solomarineris]

But I never did much.

Does it matter?
They just do not want you to open your mouth.
Most of the people (all) are polite but rude to a point that they will not compromise
to stay.
It is sad for MADD losing these people, it could be the uniquely tolerant meeting place
for opposing views.

[_dartagnan]

But isn't that what it is for?

What on earth would give you the impression that MADB was for discussion?

It is a place where apologists like to attack and ridicule all forms of criticism. That's it.

It is a "feel good" area for members who are pissed off because they can't come up with real answers to serious problems. So they go hang out where everyone else is who is in the same boat and downplay the crisis with rhetoric like "Who cares"? "None of this matters", etc.

Critics are only welcomed to the extent that they're expected to walk on egg shells and refuse to reciprocate in kind when they are attacked.

MADB is a wonderfu place to study logical fallacies.

And maybe I was slightly random, but only very slightly.

Remember, "only very slightly random" by your standards is "extremely, pervasively, and overwhelmingly random" by everyone else's standards.

Amen to that!

don't have permission to view the board. Any idea's guys?

Foolish Pirate, you shared on this board your posting name on the MAD board. Subsequently, a MAD moderator rose up in their righteousness and banned you for having posted on a heathen board such as this. They need to do this to preserve their purity of essence.

Nope, I can still get in.

Nehor, you have not befouled their purity of essence, but be careful that Juliann does not suspect you of stealing strawberries* from the wardroom icebox.




* Yeah I know, this is way too obscure of reference to Captain Queeg from the Caine Mutiny, not to be footnoted.
