Kevin was banned for good yesterday, one of the best and kindest members of this board, someone who always made sense.

This is beginning to look like the dating site from the seventh circle of Dante’s hell.
Not for me personally, I’m in no agony over it, but I mean in its way of working as a dating site. I’ve seen ice-cream trucks chiseled out of granite which I had more faith in when it comes to intended functionality.
Has any two ever actually dated here?
Anyone beyond the:
Met here
Proposed in Google
Married in Skype
Spent the wedding night over at the International
And the honeymoon in CS Ireland

People who actually contribute something worthwhile are thrown out.

I’m beginning to wonder if I want any part of such bull.
If I hold a view, present it in no rabid fashion, I can get kicked out because a person who doesn’t have the intelligence or will to compose two straight sentences feels like reporting it? I’ve seen some inferiority complexes here, oh yeah.

I reckon the way you’re supposed to act in this place is to dig into that bloody box of emoticons and spray-paint the sod out of every thread with them.
Throw in the odd two-syllable grunt and you’re set for glory.

Imagine this in real life. Imagine some of these pages, and they were not pages but some local, say a pub establish for dating.

It would be a speed-dating place, with loads of numbered tables spread out, on each table two boxes of crayons and a stack of black sheets of paper.

The scene would be like watching a Peter Greenaway film backwards. Twenty-two pair of mumbling mouths and Twenty-two pair of frenetically crafting hands making art which chimps dying of old age would snort at.

What is this place, for debate and wise exchanges, or tell-a-karaoke-joke and finger painting nights for 45-65 year old?

Kevin, you da man!

And I'm dead calm.
Sometimes you simply need to phrase it with a good solid "FU**!" It can't be replaced.

Frankly, I prefer tit tales myself...


rolling on the floor laughing blushing


smoky: Of course, PietroPaoloV .. Now you getting the story correct! Debates, Wise Exchanges, Karaoke Jokes - for the 45 - 90year olds ... 65 is not the limit, and the 90 will soon be extended as soon as I get there.

... without "running to mama and crying tittle-tales"!

Lagoona22: Calm down Highwayman...when you start reacting like that, it's a sure sign of CS Overload....do just that...take a break...this place gets claustrophobic...

...or join us on EUF and lighten up a bit...here we're talking about Antipodean lizards, harpoons, romance, wetsuits, hedgehogs, and Smokey's love affair with an Uzbek yak...how 'bout that then??...


Now that's topics I like!

I have not read every single post Kevin wrote. He seemed/seems a decent guy from what I read.

This is NOT a site where you say whatever you like. Those in charge make choices. It is their decision. We are mere mortals compared to the 'powers that be' - they can't please all the people all the time and they have their own agenda - they are only human and make subjective decisions and we can agree or disagree with what they decide, but they have the power and that's what ultimately counts.

I have been banned when I felt it was right to ban me, and also been banned when I thought I was in the right - it was not my decision either way, and I have had to accept the fact or leave permanently of my own accord.

That's life. Sometimes life sucks and sometimes life is good.

If one feels really strongly about it one can always set up one's own site - lot of hard work I should think - I, for one, can't be arsed! grin

You very well know that you are not one who inspired the comment, or Lagoona for that matter.
You know who they are.

Sometimes you have to exaggerate for people to notice your comment at all.

I totally agree! The day i get banned, i will understand that i had it coming, till then, i don't think people who go around creating threads, to discredit moderators are that safe. Kevin mentioned being on several other forums, and was a moderator in one of them. He then started a thread, bashing the moderators ways. What did he expect?


If i have a problem with a mod, i will send them an email, if i have one with a member here, i will also let them know.

We have seen this before, people leave the site because they don't think it is up to their level. Others complain about the mods, get banned, come back with new profiles, and get banned again.

Few things are as exciting as rebelling against authority

Well, well, when the tanks roll onto the streets, your walls start shaking, sirens scream out between the roof tops and there’s the 8 a clock curfew, don’t come running to this one-man resistance force.

In the '60s it was 'Ban the bomb!'

Now it's just 'Ban the Ban!'

What is the world coming too?

Not sure I fully understand all this thread, but reading between the lines, things happen in life, and you just take note, and move on. Life is to short to hold grudges, live and let live is my motto

I'm sure you agree

It does feel like being back in school and getting "suspended' for a few days. I was very surprised at Sommer and Kevin being banned as i have not read a bad post by either.
