I learned Something New Today

When your account is banned/locked, they send you PMs explaining what a [censored] you are. At least, thats what I assume the PMs say, because they banned/locked my account. I can see the mail icon, and it says 2 new messages, but I can't open them, because I have been banned locked. Let this be a message that you can receive for all those who are not banned/locked but who are tempted to quote too much. Quoting too much is bad. It can get you banned/locked, at which point you won't be able to read the PMs explaining that you are banned/locked.

Good, I'm glad this forum is well looked after. I can no longer see the mail icons. Nevermind, nothing to see--now when you are banned/locked, you will have only the visual distraction of your own guilt, for quoting too much.

I wonder how long it will take me to become a Poobah if I only post in this thread. You guys don't mind looking over some hands, do you?

I'll bite.

Why did you get banned?
You mentioned quoting too much, but you didn't really explain.

Probably it was the cursing, dude.

Although the ironic thing is that 'm-f-er' (you know, everyone's favorite 12-letter expletive) is not censored. Mat, might want to look into that bro.

You know the whole "quote within a quote" LOOK AT ME, LOOK AT ME, witty thing we morons do? Well, I did it. About 38 pages of MSWord worth, crashed my computer, and I'm imagining Mat's too. Thusly, I am banned. I learned something new today.

NotInchoateHand1 · #7 03-15-2005, 04:16 AM

No, not the cursing, 'cause those posts are still up. Just the very big quote is gone.

I've never done that, but I can believe it would be the reason for your account being locked. Were you told this was the reason, though? Just curious.

EDIT-
Ah, nevermind. I got my answer in your reply to NT.

NotInchoateHand1 · #9 03-15-2005, 04:18 AM

No, I wasn't told the reason, but that post was deleted. I was, however, PM'd the reason, but of course, my account is banned/locked, so I can't read it.

so, who were you? can you say, or will your new account get locked up?
