I can see CUK turning into a dull place where only people who agree with each other are tolerated. Sad, used to be a great forum before the bed wetter gang took over.
Might have been covered but kandr was banned once for trolling business and accountant sections as well as general. Can't remember if he got more than one ban but unfortuantely it was only temporary.
I totally agree. I suspect 80% of the trolling is done by only a few people. As has been pointed out before many of these new users (sockies or whatever) seem to have a very good knowledge of CUK history and smell of experience when they start trolling. We can spot a few straight off, NOB25, AoTN etc but surely they can learn and change so we can't spot. There is just no need for some of these people, they add absolutely nothing and just bring hassle. Rules are meant to be bent so bend them for the good of everyone else.

Here is an example. why in the hell was kandr banned? This is General he hadn't swore, or broke the rules. I suspect the people he was debating with spat the dummy out and PMed their mate.

I couldn't disagree more, people with a ban history should be firmly in the last chance saloon. People who've had a permanent ban shouldn't re-appear as sockpuppets either.

Only goes to prove my point, there is a clique on here who will use neg repping, crying to mods and general pack behaviour when they feel threatened, before running back to TPD to kiss each others asses.
Unlike you, kandr, myself and a few others don't go around agreeing with people, and being sycophantic to the mods
I have twice had a run in with the mods regarding bannings. I defended Cyberman (who was at least intelligent, articulate and able to hold an argument, none of which are qualities kandr had) and had a hissy fit at the shenanigan's at April Fool's Day (which made me look a right prat).
They're going over there to get their awards. Three different words that sound similar, but have their own unique meanings, they're NOT interchangable no matter how lazy you are.
Hey mate, you've missed out a full stop in your signature after 'meanings'. I keep meaning to say.
This is a good point, I hadn't realised he had been banned several times recently, although surely once ban has been served you have a clean slate again.

Maybe I have missed rafts of posts where he was clearly causing issues, I will have a look.
It's pretty normal for any legal system to be harder on repeat offenders. Or, for first offenders to be given leniency, depending how you look at it.
Exactly. The TPD crew has been dead for sometime. Remnants have set up the Manchester Posse. It is this new clique that threatens all. Why do you think police are on the streets of Corrie.
This is a pure North/South divide with the North posse having to travel down to the lovely South got jobs. Should be a border at Watford. Just North of the M25!
