I think several got banned because of Double screen names....Some had two or three names on the same Ip and when this got out of hand....Times Daily just went in and shut down the Ip address of the ones that they felt was causing trouble....Some were even being accused of being someone they wasnt..and the ones that was being accused of being someone else had no idea what was going on....Just a strange situation....Maybe things will chill out for a while now....Sure hope so.....

Why did Bumble get banned? He's never been anything but nice....and funny.

I've been accused of being someone I'm not. I just put it down to ignorance.

Roofin,

If you're right, that's a ridiculous reason for banning anyone. Let's say my son and I have separate accounts to this forum, but on the same computer. Same IP address.

Makes a person say "Hmmmm" doesn't it?

It's mighty hard to take a desk top computer somewhere that has Wi/fi...I guess if you had a lap top and was mobile it may not be a problem...

Could have been that, when they went through the list, they banned many of those that reused past user names for no other reason than that. Bumble was banned long ago under his first Bumble screen name over a misunderstanding.

Or, it could have been the 'insults here' thread. Although many of those 'insults' were thrown at friends in good fun, if someone read them out of context, it could be taken as a reason for banning.

I highly doubt that it was because he had another screen name banned. Nearly everyone here knows there are individuals that had their other personas banned this weekend, but kept their 'clean' id and are still posting with it.

Everyone needs to grow up and act like adults, its really not that difficult.
I agee. Everyone is jumping to conclusions about which thread was about which posters. It was hilarious when one poster, I don't remember who.....said outright that the poll about how to get rid of your sifnificant other was about my sweetie and me. We laughed all night about that one.
I imagine that person is probably not "in the know" so to speak , or he would have known how ridiculous he sounded.

People really ought not to speculate "publicly" about delicate subjects as adultery. Wouldn't you agree, Jeepin?

It was really dumb to do that on a public forum.


Must be some kind of childish game. People get banned and they're back again. It's really pointless. Much better if people used the forum to discuss issues, get opinions, recommend music, movies, and stuff like that. How fun that would be. But you can't do that here. It's really a shame Frowner

I took it that he was insinuating there is some kind of conspiracy where certain posters purposely attempt to aggravate other posters, in hopes that they will violate the terms at tdf and be banned. But, I could be wrong. I guess Cage will have to clear up any misunderstanding.

Well, apparently some of you aren't as smart as you thought because OriginalBama was posting as bankhead, not Bumble. Also, OB asked me to remind you that information can still be blogged.

Now, will you all grow up and stop these stupid, childish posts?

This message has been approved by OriginalBama.



Now who's childish? LOL

Yes, I do. And if you are referring to me and my comment in a certain thread about the attack being against a certain someone, I was not referring to the thread itself, but Bankheads relentless attack on a certain person. It was obvious who was being attacked, not that there was any truth it what was being said. I apologize if it came off to look like I was referring to the thread alone.

And, since it is now known who bankhead was, it should also be known that it was not done as a coordinated effort by the group as a whole (nor was anyone besides 'bankhead' aware of who 'bankhead' was), and as I said then, I do not agree with it being done, by a sheep or otherwise. That being said, I do not judge an entire group of people by the actions of a few.

That is why I bolded everyone. We are all grown ups here, there is no reason why we have to continue this little squabble all the time. Some dont like others, theres lots of past history, blah blah blah. Lets let it go. I dont like Jugflier, he doesnt like me, but we tend to make it through this life without trying to strangle each other (most of the time ;O)

Life is too short to make each other miserable all the time!

Just my two cents!

I was simply agreeing with your previous post and responding. I just thought it necessary to point out that a lot of people jump to the wrong conclusions by speculating about foolishness posted here.
