Banned off NP+E myself ages ago now, had the idea of a dupe to go on there and argue but what is the point of it, it's obvious certain users are returning banned members from when it was all kicking off and bans were getting thrown out when i was posting.

GloriaSlap reminds me of a powerfully built Lord-emailing track day bruiser whos exact username i can't remember.

Her and turbot bloke, who in turn is believed , by some, to be the reincarnation of Eddie Strohacker. Personally , I don't much care, but when, as has already been said, the user names are deliberately intended to confuse members into believing their views, are
the views of those they are imitating, , then that's just plain wrong, imo.

How anyone could confuse Turbotbloke's posts with turbobloke's is beyond me.

Or perhaps some of the posters being parodied deserve the ire considering some of the drivel they spout.
You mean opinions you disagree with and can't form a coherent argument against?

I am reliably led to believe that some action has been taken regarding this matter.

That may be true of long standing members, but not of more recent one.
I confess, I 've had to look at a posters username someway into reading their post because something didn't seem quite right.
Though, tbf, I wasn't singling out any one person in this case.

Turbotbloke did seem to activate at the same time Eddie was banned scratchchin

Turns out "Turbotbloke" was yet another Chew The Fat trolling account. Who'd have thought.

Don4l claims it was him. So in essence, if true, a banned poster returning to create mischief, we are well rid.

That user is clearly a piss-take parody account on CTF, it's not the real Don4l. Obviously someone used to that board though.

It’s a bit confusing really.

There’s a parody account on here made by a parody account on ctf of a user who was banned from here? hehe

Sorry, you’re banned from the NPandE or you’ve done a self imposed ban?

Can you get banned from sub forums? I know you can be banned from threads and PHs itself.

Ive definitely seen a few people turn up over the last few months posting strong political opinions that look like returned banned posters. It seems unlikely that people would join a car forum and suddenly be arguing about politics from entrenched positions.

Perhaps though, google searches are leading them here?

Plus it's discussed on the thread setup more or less specifically to take the piss out of PH/PHers, many times it's well deserved piss taking frankly, very well deserved.

I have heard people refer to being banned from posting in specific forums, yes.

It's only going to get worse unless the mods sort out their bias esp. in np&e.
What was it that got you banned Funky? Was is a case of flagrant bias or did you break one of the (clearly stated) house rules?
