I'll raise it with Dan.

Airstream, I suggest you email Daniel Benson and explain that you would like to be a member of the forum again. And don't post again with a sockpuppet.

And everyone else it's not great speculating in public about possible sockpuppets. Best to report posts or send a mod a PM.

Cheers
Bison

are you implying he's stupid? everyone who's been reading the forum for years knows that. We stated that countless times

I implied no such thing.

He probably doesn't even know what happened with Sniper getting out of his ban.

Okay, how about this: allow airstream back but make sure he realizes that he's getting a second chance and if he screws up again, he's out. No third chance.

:)

That's it La Flo, you're in the forgiving spirit, I see.:)

Do you see anyone argue that Christian should be banned?

It was mainly his switching over to worship Froome which did it and he's a lot more stubborn in his views, nothing more.

It has **** all to do with his opinions or his views. Everything to do with him being a troll.

Why the ban on Night Rider? Doesn't fit the profile of the other posters you banned? Member for 5 years?

btw in researching the above posters I noticed your question in the search function "has Lance Armstrong ever won the tour de france?" your answer is wrong. Mine was correct.

I have permabanninated tearmeapart for being airstreams sockpuppet.

I appreciate the sentiments of gooner and others, however creating sockpuppets is not the way to go about getting over a ban. Contacting a mod by PM and Daniel on his CN email is the best bet. ;)

cheers

I am sorry, this is infuriating horsesh!t.

The best thing there was to point out that you know who they are on the account the opened,warn them not to use the new account, give them Dans details and request an acknowledgement.

All that poster knows now is that they have been banned - you are assuming they are reading this and other threads.

Dr Mas - calm down please. It wasn't until I ran into this post 3 times that I actually realized you have a good idea here. I couldn't hear it for the excitement! Figurative of course.

I like that method. Mods - please consider this methodology. While of course a truly malicious individual will likely reply "wtf?" and deny - I think it would ultimately be easier for the mods, and better for the forums. If you get a plausible denial, that you don't believe, just hold them to proper behavior standards. On probation, so to speak.

in some ways not a bad suggestion.

However other than a sockpuppet appearing I have no idea if airstream wants to come back, and should I be spending my time sending emails to banned members on the offchance? And remember, its still not even approved that airstream be given the opportunity.

Finally lets not forget that airtream already came back as a sockpuppet once before to post a vicious attack against netserk, and then say he was done and dusted with the forum in no uncertain terms.

If he genuinely wants to come back, its really not that hard to email Dan, especially as Dan has been given a heads up.

BTW I have sent an email saying just that. Not holding my breath

You do a great work SB, thanks, again for the thankless job! If a poster here wishes any rider to get shot, or anyways physically harmed, perma ban is the only solution, I hope.

Why let air back, to again make the ignore function useless and let her/him troll around?
Please don't.
Wasn't it air who said AC should be shot in the head or something? I'm all for different opinions, but that was really over the top.

I remember that vaguely, and i think it was indeed him who said that. I'm with you.;)

Anybody know why the good doctor was banned?

he made a post that got deleted for some reason. He tried posting it again, and it kept getting deleted. Eventually the mod got bored and decided to ban him instead. No word on the length of the ban though. One month probably.
