I was banned the second day we moved. Not sure why either. First they locked me out of the Premuier area and then I complained and they banned me from the site. OOOOHHHH WWEELLL I am over it *LOL*

Did you mention or link to this board there? I remember seeing a thread with a response with the clanram.com link in it that's now been deleted. I suspect that if you advertise on their board, you're banned.

I dont know why? But I believe they have removed all premier access from the moderators LOL

**RamWraith** · #5 (**permalink**) -05-06-2004

to be honest I spammed the hell out of the site when they refused to give me my premium access back. And to be honest, what really makes me angry, we never once bad mouthed theInsiders or were rude about this whole change. We acted very professionally and with class, and this is the thanks we get.

Well, look at it from their perspective. Obviously I don't know what happened behind the scenes to make you guys come back here. But if I was a founder of a board and some of my affiliates split and then, as you put it Wraith, spammed their address all over my forum so people would go there instead, I wouldn't exactly be pleased about it.

I'm not sure why your premium access was taken away -- that sounds completely wrong. But if people are getting banned for posting links to this board, well I dunno. I think it's pretty harsh to ban someone from posting a link, but I can understand taking some kind of action to try and minimize the loss of members from their site. I mean, obviously they want to keep members there so that they can continue to make money to keep their site open. And obviously you guys want people to come here now after the split. It's a tough situation, IMO.

Dez, see now THIS is where you should be looking for that negative button...

Nope, you make many good points.

But, I dont ban people because they post links to other sites, I just delete the posts. :tough:

Yeah, I remember you posting the ClanRam link over there - that must've done it. Good job, though, for what it's worth!

That's the exact method that I think should have been implemented. For all they knew, if it was vicdan's first time posting the link, he could have just been innocently informing the person. Certainly nothing worth banning.

Somebody give me the link again. I need to make sure i'm not still getting charged.

If it requires me to get myself banned than i'm sure I can take care of that quite easily.

No, they will more than likely take it as a compliment LOL

Better be careful Trout...I hear there is a piece of Bacon scouting out typos ;-)

What I really find hilarious Trout, is that I have been banned and you haven't. Does that mean I win? :tongue:
