I can only think of one vacation from here. I forget what for though. It was back in the days of anonymous mods. I still have the AT Mod account as a friend on my friends list from back then.

When that light turned on sometimes that meant my mouth went shut.

two or three times on AT... I can't remember.

I was given a permaban on another forum for trolling (it was a classic forum war in the late 90's)

I've never been banned from any other forum that I regularly participate in, though.

I believe you meant to strike the 8 key, not 7. But I know how close the 2 buttons are to the ban button, so I know your pain.

Bwhahahaha! You think this is fun? This is a job, where you don't get paid, and you catch crap from everyone. Sure sounds fun to me, though threads like this help sometimes :)

Ban you for that? No. You have been banned from AT 8 times. My comment was directed at olds, not you. :p

I believe I got a 4-day vacation (reduced from one month) a few years back for massive neffing/parodies. So did a few other people that night (that was the first of many for Dug, as I recall :laugh:[/i]).

I post pretty infrequently these days though.

Was this on New Years Eve? I think I was a part of that too, "Nef Fest" ring any bells :p?

AFAIK, only once...but not only banned, but my membership was deleted completely...I guess I NUKED that bridge...

I've received a couple of PM's here from mods about political trolling in P&N, but that's about it here...

Two or three times from here. Permabanned once even, I think.

Permabanned once on another forum as well.

You've gone 9 years with no problems. We have members who can't go 9 minutes.

hehe, I've been sent a PM before and had a Mod respond in a Thread concerning my Post. Both those times the Mod seemed displeased, but so far not enough to get Vacated/Banned.

My first onlne experience ever was in 1979. I've been actively online for the most part since 1983.

Though I probably have been banned, I can't actually recall any instances at the moment.

1 two week vacation here. I forgot what I said, but I'm sure it would be ok now seeing how lenient these forums have been lately.

Actually, it would have been longer.
