Banned PH Users, a question.

[750turbo]

Will we still be able to email them via their profile?

[Big Al.]

I have a banned dual profile that I used for test purposes, I have just sent a mail to that banned profile and received it, so to answer your question is yes it should work.

HTH.

Thanks Al, it has worked OK, have "spoken" to the banned poster, bit of a sad state of affairs.

Thanks again.

I thought the ban hammer was used quite rarely on PH. I'd assumed it was reserved for Indian spammers and people named CW7.

What would you consider to be rare? How many users would you imagine were banned in 2015?

How many posters with >5k posts or 36 months membership were banned?

So I have 47,859 posts and been a member for 159 months, does that mean that if I continually breach the rules I should not be shown the door?

No, I've even seen a mod banned because he broke the rules, and not so long ago either.

Strange question.

Fair enough. Yes, and no in answer to you question. It isn't black and white.

Sorry. It was a slightly Devils Advocate question as I think the posters know about the banned poster at the heart of this thread.

But I also know that we can't discuss moderation in Website Feedback... So I will curtail the questions, bar one...

Out of interest, which mod was banned?

That's between the banee and PH.

Probably for moving too many threads out of the Lounge into obscurity.....

Yep as JC has said, but I'll tell you this, he was a bloody nice guy and greatly missed.

Why the waggly finger? It wasn't an unreasonable question?

But then mods arent actually identifiable when they post, which I find unique to PH, much as I love it.

Makes a note, and adds to short list.

Please can I be unbanned from NPE?

I promise not to tell any bad taste Nelson Mandella jokes the next time he dies!

Pretty please. The teacher has never called me (sad face)

No, sorry. A ban is permanent.

This thread seems to have answered the original question, so it seems a good time for closure.
