Re: How Did You Get Banned From MADB?
Ms Jack, that is interesting, because I have been IP blocked also. Not only can I not access the board, but I cannot access the board on any mobile or device that I have used at home. How on earth do they do that?!!
Crazy....
I was never formally banned from the board. Always quite enjoyed reading the conversations over there, particularly when there seemed to be more of a balance between believers and non/part believers. Beastie always had great things to say as did The Dude, Tarski and Rollo Tomasi. There was one poster who played the uber staunch LDS believer. Can't remember his name, but he always had me in fits of laughter.

I didn't make a post and I never intended to post. I just wanted to explain things to those two so they could relay the information to SGW or the board in general, whatever they saw fit.
I made my pm's and when I came back to check my inbox I was banned and locked out of viewing the board.
Blixa,
So you did not even post anything out on the board? They banned you for what was in your PM's? That is crazy!
Did the moderators read your PM's? I didn't even know they could do that on online forums (I'm not real computer savvy, I admit).
Or, did the persons you PM'd report you and reveal the contents of your messages?
Either way, pretty awful!

Yes. They can and do read PMs there. I'm pretty sure there is a place on the forum where they say that they do this. I believe liz3564 also had the moderators going through her PMs when she was a moderator there.
Like I said, vile forum run by vile people who have no respect for privacy.

I don't even know If I have ever been banned from there, and I really don't care. After the first episode, which was years ago, and downright abusive, I have an extreme distaste for the place.
My last venture, I just couldn't resist making a comment on an interesting thread. I played the wise pig, and got up at four o'clock in the morning and wrote what I wanted to write. I noticed later that they thought my action was totally uncalled for and unfair and an abuse of a hole in their moderation policy. Whatever---

I thought we were the vile people. That's what Yahoo Bot said at least.

Re: How Did You Get Banned From MADB?
I posted their on two seperate occasions under different names.
On both occasions those initial, first time posts got me instant banishment.
Mind you, I was asking Will to provide supporting evidence for an assertion he was making...

Steelhead, it works. Great to see Nevo posting over there on the issue of polyandry.
Ms Jack, who actually runs that board (excuse my ignorance). I always found Julianne to be very mean, but have to assume that that is just an online persona and that in real life she is probably really a good person. Also felt that she had a 'thing' about other women posting. She was always particularly mean to Beastie.

"They" threatened to IP block me at one point as I was going through an account an hour. I replied with unless they block all of the internet or suspend new account creation, then I will post at will as I understand how to proxy. They never did IP block me.
