Does one ever get de-barred from posting in N,P & E ?

[FredClogs]

I was just wondering if I'd ever be allowed back in there, I was banned with no communication or explanation a few months ago, I don't know why - will I ever get back in?

In short, 99% chance of a big, fat, nope.

Before I decide, tell me exactly what you did.

Normally if you receive and outright ban from a forum there is no return.

All forum bans would have an automated mail response giving a reason for the ban that a mod has to enter before the ban can be processed. However saying that if your email address is out of date i.e not your current one, then you will not receive it.

It wasn't me, I just got caught in the middle of some unpleasantness, it was the other boys fault, honest.

I didn't, it wasn't - to be honest there wasn't any good reason, I don't really want to start whinging about it though, my life is not impacted to any great degree, I was just wondering if the ban would ever be lifted the sardonic message you get when you try to post suggests that the ban may be lifted at some point.

No. A permanent ban is a permanent ban, and duplicate profiles are against the rule of the forum. Duplicate profiles can be and are detected and disabled.

Yes, a permanent ban from the N, P & E forum only.

Ok, well you might want to change the message displayed when the the savages like me attempt to post.

It would have been nice to have been informed for what and why I was banned but hey ho, it's water under the bridge now.
