I don't mind Ron Russian even though I disagreed with his politics , he was never abusive and never personal even though he was a bit potty.

If I didn't have a skin as tough as Elephant hide I might grass someone but I have never felt the need
|
|
By:
And if you felt the need you would say so.
|
|
By:
What makes you think that if you ''grassed'' someone that anything would come of it?
What makes you think that they would even remove the offending post? You assume a lot there. |
|
By:
No idea how you get someone banned as I have never been involved but I assume you keep reporting the poster till he is banned as I have had
a post reported which was innocuous. |
|
By:
Re my earlier post, does anyone actually KNOW that he has been banned?, or more importantly does anyone know if he is ok?. He has been prone to bouts of both absence and serious self-doubt (assuming you can judge such things on 'ere.

By:
Click on his name somewhere (new community,) and it will jump to another page and if his profile comes up he's with us, if not he isn't.
That's how you check. |
|
By:
I'm not sure there's an abundance of self-doubt on this forum Blackbarn!
|
|
By:
You can also put his name in the search box.
I just did that, and his profile came up so he's back with us. |
|
By:
Thanks Crippen - it had never occurred to me to find out how to check.
JM - Agreed, but he was very worried about his drinking. JM - Trust you are well, fyi I have nearly finished the 2yo's, with which I am well pleased. Will pm. you |
|
By:
Hang on I put Ron Russian in the search box.
His name is Ron-Russian. That brought up nothing so he's not with us. |
|
By:
Hi Blackbarn, hope you're well too.
Yes, would love to see your thoughts on 2-y-os. |
|
By:
Dr Crippen may not have mastered the intricacies of BF Forum membership. NAP(ish)
JM - Will do, as soon as I have the "fourth one" |
|
By:
the person that said he was ron on youtube said he was banned for ever
its odd that he would be banned whilst others remain but there have been so many banned down the years and you hardly ever see or hear what they are banned for sometimes a "friend" of theirs may update why they are gone, or somebody with the same name but spelt backwards may appear and some move seemlessly into their next account |
|
By:
its odd that he would be banned whilst others remain
You mean banned for good while others have been allowed back on? Most of them haven't come back. Only a few of us have returned. |
|
By:
yeah, most come back
|
|
By:
Donny - how would you know that?. There doesn't seem to be a reasonable method of knowing who has been banned and who then returns.
I don't recall seeing many who state I have been banned but I'm back. Admittedly several are accused of coming back under another name but there are not that many. You seem to know how this works so please enlighten the rest of us. |
|
By:
just over the years blackbarn, not just this recent purge
usually get some thread saying so and so has been banned, or somebody says they have had an email from so and so |
|
By:
Or of course Donny could be a moderator.
|
|
By:
lol , am i deleting my own posts
didnt we do this before ? |
|
By:
On another forum I use, everybody knows who the moderators are.
They don't try to conceal it. They join in on the discussions and everybody knows where they stand. |
|
By:
Donny my post was based on your comment "most come back". Since you don't know who has been banned, how do you know who's claim to be back is valid.
|
|
By:
didnt we do this before ?
Yes and I got banned shortly afterwards. |
|
By:
serious if banned more than a month
 |
|
By:
blackbarn, its just an off the top opinion that most come back
maybe they dont but there is usually some chat about folk being banned when it happens depending on how popular the forum is |
|
By:
Sorry donny, I just thought from your post that you "knew".
|
|
By:
Curiously, when I was banned (got a month, did my time standing on my head) BF didn't inform me. The only way I found out I was when I called them to enquire why I couldn't post (what a mug) and they told me I'd have to sit it out for a month.
