Poll: Have you been banned before?

[Cogman]

So, were you ever banned before? If so, what where your charges and the story behind it. (if safe to post that is, dont go for another ban in this thread!).

 

[lokiju]

Nope.

I received a ban for posting a parody thread. It was the only parody thread posted at the time, and there were no others related to it. Apparently I just wasn't cool enough for whatever mod was on duty that day, and it didn't just get locked like other parody threads.

Nested quotes - one of the 'unspoken rules'.

not yet

 

[EagleKeeper]

A similar thread existed a few months ago on this subject which brought great enjoyment and embarrasement to the membership.

There is no need for another.

/edit
This thread has been unlocked after review of the dates of similar type thread.

Yes I have been banned. I have been good since though .

 

[Kyle]

yeah, one time- was drunk one night a few years ago and for some stupid reason I wanted to see what it was like to be banned...so I made fun of a mod. It worked.

 

[clamum]

Twice, each for a week.

 

[amish]

yes, for being stupid.

 

[CPA]

no, I'm a good boy.

 

[olds]

Once for a week.

I've been banned for a thread wayyyyyyy back. Those were my younger days. Probably something like 6 years ago. I posted an IM log with me rejecting a girl to a dance.

Same reason

 

[SacrosanctFiend]

Yes, quite recently...for posting CasioTech's website since he had removed it from his sig. Only 3 days, so I got off light (according to the Mods).

 

[KK]

No, but I banned AT from being able to log me in. I showed them.

 

[Chaotic42]

Yep. I mentioned a humor website (I didn't link to it) that had installed porn banners since I was last there. One month vacation.

 

[hypn0tik]

Yes.

3x 1 week bans.
1x permanent ban

See sig.

[Kadarin]

I was banned for a month once for referring to one of the mods as "the Nazi mod". I don't even remember what the thread was about...

 

[bignateyk]

Nope. Been threatened with a vacation VIA PM once or twice, but never actually banned.

 

[ggnl]

Just once for inciting someone to flame me...

We both got banned for a couple days

 

[nakedfrog]

Nope. Only had one thread locked, too (not that I've made very many here)

 

[Randum]

I did once for a thread I think I was talking about a movie? I view anandtech as "work safe" regulated boards. All the freedom of speech and crazy posting is done elsewhere...at least I know I can always read aandtech at work and not read anything too crazy..

 

[YOyoYOhowsDAjello]

Nope. Mods tolerated me even though I was on NC
