    Hello to my fallen comrades :)

    Surprised I got a ban. If I recall correctly my only dubious comment on the Brady thread was "You don't need to f*** your way to the top. Sucking will suffice" which is clearly a joke. But I think the mods just banned anyone who the "lawyers" complained about so I guess if my forum ID is on the list then so be it. So no bitterness towards the mods from me, I'm just amazed that any public figure actually cares what a bunch of anonymous people on a forum say about them. It's a private discussion forum for members only, not a national newspaper! Who cares what a group of online no marks thinks? Pretty absurd.

    Good to see Lawnsy here. You've often caught the dirty end of the stick from the mods, sir. Best poster on there, you deserve better.

    Its never dull on TF, is it.

    We're all rooting for 'the Brady Bunch' over there at the minute, and planning a big celebration next week when most of you return. Youre right in that the mods had little choice. But its kicking off here too as we have a fake Del here stirring things up.

    You are the real Northy arent you? Prove it by posting the phrase "Brendan Rogers is a god with all his own teeth".

    Thanks Northy. My comments on the thread about the woman were largely around defending her name by saying she couldn't possibly have been associated with porn. Wiki made no reference to this industry amongst her business interests yet BANG!!! I got done as part of the collateral damage.

    Did a fair bit of reading around the L&D laws in the digital age which is sort of what you do when you've been banned and it shows how the rich and famous have us plebs by the short and curlies. "Oh I feel hurt and aggrieved boo hoo." Even I don't have mega flounces like that, oh do I?

    Ol' Pet, you played a blinder with a welching North London football club supporter who tried it on with you a couple of days back. :)

    All Zambos fault hes not a very good mod and apparently took credit for bringing the perm banned back
    the whole place revolves around his ego. look at the way he talks to people as a mod
    the only mod always involved in controversy like posting PMs not sent to him to win a personal argument and targeting posters
    Stay here lads its a much more well run place :)

    Excuse me Lawnsy?

    As for "the night of the long knives" I could sense that I was for the chop and lo and behold. The reason? Some vague and half baked rubbish about "posts away from the forum". What tosh! In the Brady thread I don't even remember quoting anything Eaststand said but if I did it was to defend the woman. I don't agree that those who quoted offending passages should have been banned nor (surprisingly) do I agree with my permaban. I suppose they had to invent a reason to clear the both of us off and there it is. Oh well, life goes on :-)

    See you anon.

    Oh and Pet, I resign from the quiz. Good luck to both you and sub, you were worthy opponents.

    No shout out to me then Lash? :cry: Do all those Brendan Rodgers jokes mean nothing to you? I'm so upset that when I come back I may never mention his teeth and penchant for trannies again.

    Alright, we both know that won't happen but still. Show the love bro. :)

    I hope Brendan doesn't have the same lawyer as Brady or I'll be heading for a permaban faster than you can say "Blinding teeth and botox". :)

    A thousand apologies Northy, I didn't notice you had been sent to Guantanamo as well........knickers, this couldn't have come at a worse time, if Liverpool get tonked by the Saints on Sunday I'll hold the fort until your return pal :D

    In fairness, there were some comments a bit near the knuckle. But only from one or two, the majority who have been banned were either joking about it or echoing comments for discussion. I guess the "lawyer" just took a scattergun approach with the complaints and just reported every single person who posted in there. It's given me greater respect for the talkSPORT presenters actually, you would have thought some of them wouldn't appreciate some of the observations on their skills or lack thereof. :)

    I can't believe I'm on Digi Spy. I better not get banned from here, it'll be bloody Mumsnet next :o

    Thanks mate. If you need a refresher course on the wonder of Brendan to maximize piss taking potential, may I recommend 'Being Liverpool', a masterpiece of cringe now available on DVD at all major retailers. Rumours that customers bought the DVD thinking it was The Office Christmas Special can not be verified at this time.

    How come you got done Das? The Landlord showed a wilful disregard of any authority either on the forum on in the legal world. It looks that the mods look like they wanted to cover all bases to prevent come back from outside parties so wanted to hammer almost anyone who posted in the thread and whether or not they spoke in favour of the said woman. They obviously didn't want to leave any room for doubt that they were dealing with the matter seriously. I'm not going to whinge about my ban and I'll accept it.

    Ah so this is The Brady Bunch list

    Eaststand - permanent ban
    Dasboot - permanent ban
    carcinogen - 2 weeks plus warning
    TGOAH 15K - 1 week plus warning
    kancutlawns - 1 week plus warning
    delboy1953 - 1 week plus warning
    m4rkb - 1 week plus warning
    wathman - 1 week plus warning
    finchman - 1 week plus warning
    Royal24s - 1 week plus warning
    NorthBank - 1 week plus warning

    notin kwestion - 24 hour ban pending further discussion
    notin kwestion's ban extended to 1 week


    That discussion about whether Notin should get an extension seemed to go well. :) I have a feeling the deciding vote was Carlos.

    Their reasons was for "things outside the forum" whatever that means. As I said, they needed a reason to get shot of me so have invented one. I believe Zambo has been reading PMs so I can only suppose that it was they are alluding to but nothing I said in any PM to anyone was deserving of a permaban.

    Wathman's been warned and banned previously. What on earth is it that with him? Seems an OK poster who's innocuous.

    Bang goes any chance of me starting a thread about the strange case of Cliff Richard, Prince Charles, Pele and a massive black rubber dildo then.

    It'll have to be the Bungle and Zippy Appreciation thread instead with a few songs from the Rainbow book thrown in. :p
