The issue that ebandit failed to address in his own mind is that he had absolutely no idea what conversations were occurring between the moderators, what courses of action were being undertaken, or indeed who had lodged a complaint about "hoggie" or what the specifics of the complaint actually were. Because all that information is private.

If any member raises a concern about a post, moderators will take those concerns on board and act accordingly. They might or might not than discuss the issue amongst themselves. Sometimes they will PM the poster to discuss the issue at greater length than the small comment on the edited post. But they will not discuss the specifics of the complaint, which is a personal communication to the mods.

A "normal" poster when asked by a moderator to refrain would comply with that request, and the poster also understands that to defy a moderation has consequences. ebandit was in no doubt from our very first communication that he would face consequences if he chose to defy the moderation. Knowing all this full well he then defied the moderation and stated both in private and in public he would do so.

Guess what happens when a poster says to the administrator "I refuse to accept moderation I am going to do whatever I want" #unconstitutional #witchhunt

what's a 'normal' poster? are you suggesting that i'm less so

ok i do expect honesty.............you highlight that i chose to ignore mods
but the truth is that choice was made with reservation stating i would not comply because request to refrain from referring to thehog as hoggie was unfair.................as it's ok for others

yes i knew complaint was from hoggie...........you told me!

strange that you make such a BIG thing of respecting the privacy of pm's
.......others do it without thought

but you were happy to post details of my pm's ......am i 'not normal' expecting more from a mod?

it was not my intention to post again but i have chosen to correcting selective posting of the truth

Good call on willbick, even ignoring the contradictory nature of some of his posts which would indicate trolling, a fair few of his posts in the PRR section seemed to have some reference to clinic related stuff.

:cool:

Willbick days were numbered once he went up against the regulars. That is a "normal" trend here.

My my, the self appointed distributor of all fact based reason has been banned. This, after vortex proclaims he just posts facts when jamming a mod while simultaneously sucking up to JV.

I guess all that brown-nosing of the mods and the fact-based pompousness of vortex have not saved him from the ban hammer. Wonder if he will come back in here with his "do what the mods say and you will be ok" if it is him getting banned while spouting his version of the truth. :cool:

My my, the self appointed proclaimer of all things forum related and other posters' shortcomings is back for a quick snip.

Ironic to hear the words "fact-based pompousness" be thrown down by you.
Can we expect some expert analysis from you until you quickly retreat in your well-known hit-and-run style?

Oops, gotta go...better things to do than watch the flaming...
going to ride now.

Doc Mas has more than one post on record stating that although pedantic with regard to others' statements, he dutifully backs off an issue anytime a mod intervenes and directly requests that he refrain from a particular line of discussion.

You likely missed that as it tended not to conflict with your agenda.

I was curious if this was going to become a drawn out spat but looks like the two of you just went out riding. :eek:

Hey quick question. Is your Cat on the avatar a Shriner? :D

When you can tell me how I make money from promoting evidence based practice you can call me a spammer!

If I make something up, does that count? How would you prefer to be accused?

Go through the links Fergie posted, there's a lot of great stuff on how to train and race with a power meter. As the new owner of a Powertap, It's good to know where to start, hopefully others do too.

Let's just say that it didn't came out of the blue. He has been dancing on the line for some time now. In the last couple of weeks he has 'behaved' worse than usual, despite several warnings.
