    So, my first ban

    So, my first ban, fair enough. I thought NAT and others would have got the tongue in cheek humour as it was intended but apparently not.

    As I understood it 'targeting' a poster in a thread title was against the rules to prevent abuse. MaryPoppins is under the impression that creating thread asking why I was banned would result in her being banned just because she mentioned my name in a thread title? WTF?

    There have been many threads on here that mention a poster by name but don't result in a ban for the OP as they clearly aren't intended to be abusive. General is all things but insulting posts targeted at individuals appears to be fine as long as not mentioned in the thread title?

    NAT, if you're going to make a sticky about it then make the rules clear and sort out any ambiguities otherwise leave the job of being a mod up to people smarter than you. Yer now officially a bawbag and it's clear yer not very bright.

    Admin, sort yer staff out or indulge in some training / personality profiling.

          Rule 1. Choose your target wisely. Nobody eve got banned for calling a tool a tool.

                Wasn't it Spod who called it a right of passage on here?

                Mention NAT's name in a thread title, job done (even if you're saying he's a good guy, go figure).

                  You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to TestMangler again.
