I had an email notification saying:
Hi speed_monkey,

You have been banned from The Lounge for 7 days for the following reason: for posting a 2000th post thread.

Regards,PistonHeads

I presume its for this thread....

http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

Can I ask as to why I have been banned then? No reason is given in the email and the thread was hardly offensive, at the very least.

It's a bit harsh. When I posted one about my 500th post it was just deleted and I learned my lesson. How are we
meant to read about speed monkeys love life now?

I agree, very harsh. If the mods didn't like it why not just delete it?
