Runtu, how are you being limited? By number of posts per day or being unable to start threads or both?

by the way, I think a lot of posters there looked forward to your posts..

When I'm here I still try to do that but feel less restriction. It's still me. Same personality... just respecting the different environments I find myself in.

rcrocket mentions that as well sometimes. It makes no sense to me.

When I'm at my parent's home I act slightly different then when I'm sitting about in the comfort of my own. Same woman. Different environment.


That's how I feel. I probably am a little freer in what I say here because I don't have to worry about being banned, but I'm the same person. It's not like you and I sit over here and cackle at the Mormons while we put on the face of piety over there. I really have no idea what why me is talking about. Of course, that wouldn't be the first time. ;)

I haven't followed all of Runtu's posts but what I mean by dual personality is when one posts on MAAD in one personality and on Mdb with quite another personality. However I do not think that Runtu is guilty of that.

MAAD does restrict posters if they are posting too much. Charity was a case in point a while ago. As I understand it, she was restricted because she was posting too much. I believe that she is now unrestricted. It is no big deal really. It happens. Now if you are restricted to 10 posts a day...well...that is good. !0 is a good number but if you are restricted to 3 posts a day, well....that is not a good number.

So how many posts are you limited to per day?

Not sure. It just said I was past my limit. When I hit the limit, I suppose I'll know.

Yeah, that's what they all say, till they find themselves puking their guts out and laying on the internet floor, craving one more post.

Actually, I believe they have it set so that every poster has a maximum limit of 20 posts per day. It could be less.

I doubt it....when I was over there (and that assistant thing was working) it would list the top 10 posters for the past 24 hours. It was common for most of those posters to be at least 20, and for some (Zakuska, charity, etc) posters to be near (or over) 100 posts.

The best thing I read today was someone calling Pahoran a modern-day Captain Moroni. Now that's funny.


Would that be Anijen? It's a sad day when I read Anijen's posts proclaiming how very righteous Pahoran is.

Runtu, you have seriously irritated someone over there. I just saw this:

We got it the first three times and you haven't added another thing except more disgust. Get out the thread or you will be taking a long sabbatical. There won't be any more warnings for people who want to use this board to throw tomatoes instead of substance. ~ Mods


And that was just in a good hearted exchange you had with Will Schryver. Your "warning" seems to have come from nowhere.
