What has happened to Sniper ? I enjoyed his posts. Loved the way he dealt with those on the motor thread whose collective response seemed to be summarised as "la la la there are no motors in any bicycles, la la la I can't hear you, la la la Femke is the high priestess of motorised doping, la la la I can't hear you. la la la a car battery weighs and ton and where would you hide it, la la la I can't hear you."
Do you even read the motor thread?
I think he does, but you wouldn't think so. I think he as well is under the assumption that everyone is doping and using motors so actual evidence isn't needed. Reckless speculation on the other hand very much is.
Sniper just isn't convinced that the only person to try and use a motor is a Belgian junior. The rumours have been around for long enough to suggest he's right.
But who is convinced that the only person to try and use a motor is a Belgian junior?


As to sniper's stance, here's what he has to say on that:

I agree that in this day and age you probably cannot be in contention for a monument podium without a motor, maybe not even for a semi-classic.

Come on, that's a ridiculous statement. So last season you think that Demare, Swift, Roelandts, Hayman, Boonen, Stannard, Sagan, Cancellara, Vanmarcke, Poels, Albasini, Rui Costa, Chaves, Rosa, Uran - and a whole host of others that were in contention for those podiums and semi-classics - were probably riding with a motor?
yes.

Yes it's the tip of the iceberg.
Aicar, microdosing EPO, gummibears, HGH, motirized wheels, full Monty. From BC track to road and back. Staff including soigneurs and mechanics, all with one goal. Cheat and win.


Gillan1967 well done for digging that up.
Hilarious.

Walsh doing everything to safe face. Not gonna work.

you forget GW-501516 and lipotropin

it will be funnier when the knighthoods get revoked. if that is the technical name.

then can someone please do me a favour and bring me the justice of copying/quoting all the satire posts from blackcatthirdperson where they mentioned Gordonstoun muscular christianity oxbridge rowing boat races bullingdon club harrow etc.

Because when the satire was seen in the full light of day, the moderators would never have banned me for six freekin months when I was right all along, I brought the funnies and laffs[sic]
You were not banned for:
"satire posts from blackcatthirdperson where they mentioned Gordonstoun muscular christianity oxbridge rowing boat races bullingdon club harrow etc."
But you know this already.

Your ban was for repeatedly ignoring warnings and bans about posting crude, vulgar, NSFW, and pornographic comments that have since been mostly removed.

Asking members to aggregate your comments to prove that you've been treated unfairly will not show the actual posts that you were banned for, but you know that too.

If you have a gripe or concern about being banned for six months you can post it in the "members suspension appreciation/depreciation" thread. Posting about your ban in threads other than the members app/dep thread is not permitted, per forum policy.


come on ID, I got banned because a cadre of fellow travellers reported every post I made and had a tin ear for satire and Wildean drollery. Brits! Brits with no humour gene.

The empire crew reported every post I made. I have never reported one off-colour post by anyone else.

My main aim, is to remove the muslin laid over the eyes where a non-positive piss test = clean. I seek to burn the emperor's clothes at the stake[sic/ intentional torturing metaphor].

We had it with USPS mkI at Daily Peloton with all the Lance homers. Now we have crossed the Atlantic.

I never made it personal, I sought to bring the funnies[sic].

If people thought I was malicious they have their wires crossed, I was never malicious. six months for being humorous.

Welcome back kitty cat.

actually, it was an inside joke by the delgados and I. nothing more.

I hate having caveats refraining from #Poe's_law.

see, even if it was serious-non serious. I would have taken it in the best manner. I know I rile folks. the delgados is not one of those.

I know folks report my posts, but I don't play be their rules. sorry.

I know I cause a headache for moderators. sorry also.

well why don't you mitigate your behaviour blackcat?

well, that aint the way I roll, and I reckon a profit-loss analysis make it worth accepting the few missteps I have made.

This is a classic example of what I'm talking about, you get a warning for violating forum policy and you ignore it and post whatever you want anyway. I couldn't have been any more clear that if you wanted to complain about your ban you should post it in the "members app/dep" thread, yet you completely ignored that warning and posted off topic (against forum policy) in the Sky thread anyway. What you don't seem to fully grasp is that there are members out there that aren't smitten with your complete lack of respect for forum rules. :(

Blaming the "Brits" for not having a sense of humor and getting you banned is completely off base. You have no idea who reported you for what not to mention that I have told you numerous time what you were banned for.

Arriving at such a conclusion after being repeatedly told what got you banned is simply just trolling at this point.

Are posters out to get sniper banned?

Plenty of others post similar content that comes across more as obfuscating rather than discussion.

Heck one well known poster just posts nothing but derogatory snide uppity posts attacking posters yet nowt! There are others that constantly play the man and not the ball.

No, nobody is out to get sniper banned, at least in the past week anyway. All I can say is that you should report the comments that you see as violating forum policy.

Tried that. He never got banned. He is constant.

Did not see anything in snipers posts that imo warranted a ban, but then i am not a mod.

Not seen any sky bots get banned either! Not sure why......
