Come on, there's got to be more to your banning than that!
I st ye not, that was it!

On a thread about bizarre logos, someone mentioned it, and I said 'it's a serpent eating a baby or [unrepeatable]', which I could have been more subtle about I admit, but that was that.

On enquiring, I got this:

email said:
We would rather you didn't make comments like that on our site, regardless of whether you see no harm, or believe it was misinterpreted, and so this is our way of making that point.

When your access returns we hope you will refrain from making similar posts.
ermm which I guess I've just breached. See you later? biggrin

Here's how I see it. Insurance expert with short fuse & habitual thin skin misrepresents his recent postings, mod piles in over the top with size tens, other less than fully formed individuals with lots of history themselves run to point out how awful the mod is in oh so important internet exercise to extract a pound of flesh. In all, cringefest extraordinaire.
Can't agree. Although Loon can come across as both abrasive and brusque (he's far from my favourite poster) JAYB is on another level, haughty, arrogant and insecure. His quick wit and sharp observation is far outweighed by his bullying streak which manifests itself in his banning of people who don't toe his line, frankly whoever thought his online personality would make for good moderation had left the path of wisdom.

Couldn't agree more, he shouldn't be a mod on here.

this thread has been building up most of the day from reading it -

Thread about armed police

and this guy seems to have and issue with armed police, unless they are his friends, then its ok with him. (unless I've read his posts wrong and got the wrong end of a police batton?)

Let me simplify:

The more armaments ostentatiously carried by police, the bigger the wedge I believe they will drive between themselves & the public.

ETA - if James is any good he will be fully aware of said thread, no need to contact him.

The posting rules name someone called Nathan in place of Garlick.

Anyway you're about three years too late - if anything was ever going to happen, it was when a certain mod picked a very odd fight with a female poster for no obvious reason. The thread itself went to purgatory but you can probably find reference. Turns out if you report a moderator, the moderator gets the report.

Nathan is Eybic, if you don't want mods to see what you report pm him or JD as above.
