Member Suspension Appreciation/Depreciation Thread

[Mellow Velo]

I'm disagreeing that MV is informative. Or that the informative content of his posts trumps the bullying and insults.

But not surprised you want to twist that around as if I am claiming to be informative.

Pretty sure I stated things I had read, and a theory - not stated as fact, certainly not an "explanation". Just a theory, and incredulity at certain of the events that occurred - like leaving a bike by the side of the road. The frame was broken but the Di2 components themselves are worth a quid. The worst I did was hope for a photo of him recovering in hospital. How that becomes an "explanation" is beyond me.

I agree with you that insulting fellow posters is about the least acceptable method of posting. No doubt about that.
It should not be tolerated on here at any level......................but it is, on a daily basis.
However, if MV over stepped even the fluctuating tolerance mark applied, then a spell in the sin bin is appropriate.

Glad we agree that you aren't being informative over Henao and just making things up to boost another Sky thread.

 

[Dear Wiggo]

We don't agree at all on anything. Not sure what fantasy land you inhabit but you have attacked me more than once now with baseless accusations of wanting to "boost" (?) another Sky thread.

We do agree that you prefer to twist non-Sky lover posters' words to suit your own agenda.

Chapeau.

So the vultures who turned on and wound up Martin are now attempting to do the same with Gooner, now there is a suprise

On another topic when will the mods suspend Dear Wiggo for his offensive posting in the Henao thread, I guess never because generally they agree with him

Dude! Really?

I don't think anybody, least of all me, tried to wind up MV in said thread (it wasn't needed, he managed perfectly well winding himself up in a state frenzy) nor am I trying to wind up Gooner in this thread. I simply disagree with Gooner with regard to MV's ban, which I find was wholly justified. I found the comparisons and insinuations MV made quite disgusting and made note of that in said thread and then reported his posts in said thread as is appropriate and apparently I was not the only one. And the admins agreed to boot.

I don't have an agenda.
That's the difference.

When normally anti-Sky posters call your theory silly and offensive, there is nothing to twist.

This is pure unadulterated trolling from someone too weak to think of any argument beyond this pathetic - wah you ban posters because they like sky , line he goes back to everything someone trolling in favour of sky gets banned.

Hog, sniper etc have been banned on many occasions, dr mas Is banned for good, you don't have a leg to stand on.


Yet still you use this dumb loser argument.

"making things up to boost a sky thread" is you twisting what I have said to your own agenda of making me out to be a sky hater or wanting to "boost another sky thread". whatever the hell that means.

*boom*

I hope like heck you're not stalking me because this is not the first time you are having a go at me for posting in an appropriate thread vs starting a new one or posting off-topic.

Only sky lovers have labeled the Henao post offensive, and more than one person has agreed that it's not.

Overreaching maybe but you can add me to the "not offensive" pile.

At no point has DW, hoped for a rider to be injured or wished suffering on a rider.

And in a sport where people have been known to cathaterise themselves for the purposes of filling their bladder with someone else's clean urine (anecdotal from people in the field) faking a crash to get a guy out of competition, when they think he's likely to get caught, is not beyond the realms of possibility.

 

[red_flanders]

I had no problem with Vickers' "blood on their hands" posts. Melodramatic to be sure, but not a wholly unreasonable line of thinking. I don't agree with him on it, but so what.

What I do have a problem with is his need to be abusive to forum members to make his points. It's been a consistent issue for a long time with him.

I wish that were the reason for a ban, not his (only slightly) off-topic posting.

 

[Fzotrlool]

Still don't get why the "Froooome"-sockpuppet hasn't been permanently banned. It's probably the same guy as Cauberg1999 and RichietheBest.

I wonder how Martin feels about the Kimmage interview. More blood?

Everyone has blood on their hands, except Martin. Im sure once he comes back he will write a 5000 word post to explain this.

DW hopes Froome crashes hard he is such a hater. Everything Sky and on his twitter he tweets pics of AC having coffee with the Tinkoff guys. Hilarious guy.

Premium gobbledegook, you rock, whatever you are trying to communicate.
The gist is I think that Froome is clean and everyone else is not. N'est-ce pas?

 

[Dear Wiggo]

Seriously.

What is with accounts created in September 2009 with no posts, all of a sudden trolling ... er... posting in the clinic?

Shouldn't this be automatically banned as a sock puppet?

That is a very good idea.

Dr Vortex is rolling around in his grave..

but yes, it does seem that people that come out of nowhere to passionately defend Sky are previously banned posters.

Why draw the line at a new poster? Plenty of folks with thousands of posts intentionally post nonsense in order to provoke chaos.

Yes. This one http://forum.cyclingnews.com/member.php?u=6782

Are you able to ban IP's? That would help a lot. Also, make it impossible for people to use proxy servers.

Says the guy who is actually on his own, second account.

September 2009, or actually BS.
5 years waiting for the right moment to mock the mockers.
A Sky sleeper cell, perhaps?

Looks to me as if the Clinic have their very own Wonderlance.
Watch out for his huge poll.
Other than that, what RR said.

 

[Granville57]

Says the guy who is actually on his own, second account.

He asked, publicly, for his old account to be closed so that he could change his screen name (because the forum software does not allow for that). The mods then, publicly, announced that change in status. His old account was closed, and he continued to post under his current screen name.

Transparency.
