Banned from the Politcs Climate Change thread

[dickymint]

Afternoon Mods,

Tried replying to your email but it’s bounced back so ........

Please could you let me know which post of mine was deleted and which rule was broken.

Would also like to know how long is this ban for?

[dickymint]

Bump - a working email address would suffice thanks

[gadgetmac]

Who did you insult? Was it me again? Was it?

Not sure regarding the actual thread, but the ban is from that thread only.

HTH.

Why, what have I done? I’ve never even had a post removed yet.

Can we get an answer to this please. I've written about this seeming biased banning of pro AGW posters in the climate threads and so have others.

I,m one of the deniers that posted and was following that thread and i find it unbelievable that he was banned, sounds like the moderator used tactics on Paddy that should have no place on a forum like this. Is this answer to Paddy bullying??, "Suggest you change your posting style if you wish to stay around!”

Have a look at rule 22 https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/rules.asp

I was also removed from the climate thread with no reason given at all. No explanation or comment, nothing.

I had done nothing that warranted such an action.

I wonder if this is all down to one Mod with an issue/agenda?

[gadgetmac]

I'm not alone in wondering just what is going on here then.

Why am I on the radar?

[Alucidnation]

Not sure why you are complaining TBH, as that whole thread is way up the cringe-o-meter.

How long does one need to wait for 'Rule 22' to get a response ?

As the thread was slammed shut. I emailed Pistonheads to ask as per Rule 22 - 24 hours ago. Silence remains.

I've sent the email again.
How long do emails take to reply ? it took a matter of minutes for two unnecessary emails, a ban and a thread closure.

Have you tried dropping Big Al an e-mail via his profile as he suggested above to Dicky to do?

It worked for him.

[LoonyTunes]

An explanation needs to be forthcoming for both of us.

I can't even flag up as 'News' the insight a poster has given us :


"Electric car sales hit by high prices and bad batteries"

All bang on message and relevant to Pistonheads as a car forum - and should be explored and discussed as a front page editorial article.
Whilst we all naively thought the future was bright and rosey for EV's it seems a poster on the thread has an inside track to say that

Sharply ?!?!?

Interviews and Journalism should be happening at PH Towers on this scoop posted on their forum, surely ? ?
HTH

Except that The Times article doesn't say that sales have dropped sharply...

So i expect the reason that its not a front-page scoop is because it isn't much of a story.

I think you've missed his point.

If its any consolation I’m getting nothing back either. Dicky got sorted out immediately.
