It's an odd address... do you normally login to www.pistonheads.com or www.pistonheads.co.uk? the link is to pistonheads.co.uk so your cookies may be screwed.
Try this and see if the same happens: www.pistonheads.com.

I think its more to do with what i've posted in the topic. Some people did not enjoy the pictures i was posting (through personal opinion) and i assume on of them was a mod who thought they'd stamp there authority. I dont class that as fair as many others enjoyed the photo's and my posts where on topic.

Despite subtle, and some not so subtle hints that you are posting pictures that almost everyone else without exception feel do not belong in the topic. Variety is the spice of life and everyone enjoys to see other styles and even if they don't like a particular style good workmanship will almost always be applauded anyway however you have done your level best to ruin an otherwise excellent thread.
Im sorry but i dont agree with the reason for 'banning' me there. I can give you many quotes of people enjoying my posts. Would the same thing happen if i moaned about every time i seen a modified 240z? Because i'd be moaning a lot due to the fact there's a hell of a lot in the thread. Would the person posting 240z's be banned? Or would they stay because you as an individual liked the aesthetics of the 240z? I dont think that is fair moderating to ban someone due to posting pictures that did not suit their personal taste.Gaz. said:
Given that you & the cars you submit seem to be the main discussion (and not in a good way) for many pages every time you post does not do your cause any favours. Many people have requested that you submit something else other than something from speedhunters and several times you have provoked an arguement. The cars should be the discussion, not you.
I cannot understand your post due to what i have highlighted. Its a total contradiction. I cannot remember being told not to post any more material from Speedhunters. I'm willing to be proved wrong though. As i recall it, it was simply people (a couple of friends even) mentioning that i was nicking all the images from that site. Not complaining about the cars in question. And this is a forum is it not? Forums are discussion boards. Thus discussing cars is the whole point of this forum. Whether it be good comments about the cars or not, its still discussing.

Oh i give up. I've heard enough about you Gaz to understand that you have an arguable style of moderating. I guess I've witnessed it first hand now. 
Obviously i cannot appeal then, so when do i loose my ban?
That should boost it by a couple of days!Obviously i cannot appeal then, so when do i loose my ban?

Absolutely feeling the love here.
Absolutely. I'm not one to hold personal grudges. Thats why i've never had a problem with you in the past. And i'll probably forget who you are and this situation in a couple of days. I dont mean to be personal but thats just what i've heard. Any further information on the questions i asked above?

A bit like being stopped by BiB, if you appear contrite, they may be lenient , if you argue & claim to " pay their wages" they will look at related offences.
And if there was no offence committed then whats 'Plod going to do? Such as if i was driving a bright pink car. I haven't done anything wrong but the copper himself does not like the car. Its not broke no rules but it has shown differences of taste.
