Banning is an interesting term here - people seem to get banned only to return days weeks or months later. Seems the banning is for a set period of time - so maybe calling it ''suspended'' would be more accurate.
Still, those suffering from ''look at meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee'' syndrome will no doubt have numerous puppets created and active already, so I have no doubt, unfortunately, we've not heard the last.

Actually that's a really stupid thing to say, how the hell can you come back as someone else, you can come back with another name, but unless your possessed your still you
Or does this forum have greater powers than we know - spooky.
I think I might have caught this pedantic streak from Lee Jones Junior

Ahhh, but if youre possessed - are you still essentially you but with an additional element :|
Because if you werent you after you were possessed, where does the real you go to and then come back from, when your unpossessed after the possession :|
erm .... yeah .....

It's easy Parth, when you possessed your them but you are there as well in the back, sometimes you come to the front and the possession to the back which means you are now you and they are them with you but not in the front until they return to the front at which point you are no longer you in the front but at the back. Sometimes the possessor and you can jointly be in the front but you can never be jointly at the back unless there is another possession - at which point it gets to complicated to explain.

Well I for one find it strange she chose to get banned over something so silly, and pointless - when!
A - she was meant to be doing her stall on Saturday (so no feedback).
B - she was going to be asking the mods for a sticky post for Bri and Geoff's get together/charity day in September.
Could someone who has posted they may be attending this, do this, please, it is for a good knees up (sorry cause)
Maybe she needed to give FB a rest for a while, but watch out, she will be back.
Bizarre is the only word to explain it.

Unfortunate for us forum members who will have to witness even more rantings and ramblings from members who find it funny to keep coming back once banned, as someone else.
They lower the tone of the board, from behind their desk, get banned, then come back to have another.
You have to ask yourself what sort of sad and unfilled life they must lead, that they have nothing better to do, other than play silly childish games.
But, of course you already know this

That's a bit harsh poppy, sure some people might act childishly, heck I do it on a daily basis but calling someone sad and saying they have an unfulfilled life is out of line in my opinion.Unfortunate for us forum members who will have to witness even more rantings and ramblings from members who find it funny to keep coming back once banned, as someone else.

What right do you have to judge someone like that when you are so quick to put them down?
Don't get me wrong, I understand rules and fair enough on the mods for enforcing them, I run a guild as well as a forum and I have strict rules also, so I fully understand the mods position here but I would never say someone was sad and have an unfulfilled life just because they broke some rules.

There is acting childish, (my posts are often tongue in cheek) and then there are OTT posts.
I disagree with you, if you get banned and feel the need to re-invent yourself just so you can come back, then there is something sad and lacking in your life.
Not, only sad, but an arrogance that makes you think - the board really needs you, and will fall apart without you.
Either move on, or sit out your ban and then come back.

What makes you think she has come back though? All you've got to go on is what other people have said, which are nothing more then rumors. Just because someone has said they "may" have come back on another account, doesn't mean they have. For all you know she could be doing exactly what you said, taking her punishment on the chin and waiting it out.There is acting childish, (my posts are often tongue in cheek) and then there are OTT posts.

You can't know for sure and untill you do I think it is unfair for you to make such a comment.

i think being British these days must mean we have the patience and tolerance of a saint after all.
We donate millions to other countries at a time we are in severe debt ourselves.
Let millions of asylum seekers in, pay for their living, let them claim our benefits, house them. Give them a nice comfortable living all at the expense of the working person.
We even don't mind treating non British nationals free on the health service, people flying all the way in from Poland for free radiotherapy treatment then flying back home.
And of course we dont mind collecting the crap and waste no other country wants.
But how does out institution and indeed even our own people allow it to happen, Because its non pc or even racist to argue otherwise.
No to rant against this, you are branded a whinger, or a Victor Meldrew/ Alf Garnet.
Even though as the cost of living, petrol increases, VAT rises, steadily drives the poor working person from the pub, cinema, holidays to the conform and confines of their own home. We still dont complain. We understand totally.
And yet while all this goes on, of course we'll cut back on our armed forces while we find more work for them to do risking yet more British lives for some cause called oil.
So who is expected to pay for all this, why you the working person who slaves night and day 120 hours a week. The average working person with 10 jobs who works works works, without prospect of retirement as they are up to their necks in debt trying to pay the bills.
The fat cats dont miind as this is what the working person is for.
Slavery is not abolished in this country or in any country, for we are all slaves to capitalism. We work as the alternative does not bare thinking about. There is no whip though, its replaced with the P45. We will work and like it, or hit the dole. For one thing is for sure, we would need to be an imigrant before we would be treated with any sympathy there.
Shall i stop ranting now? or shall i go on, as i could you know

Wow, that's pretty bleak
I work because I enjoy it. I work when I want and under the conditions I find acceptable (walked out of a few contracts in my time
).This Country has afforded me all the opportunities I've tried to take advantage of. It is the best Country to live in, one of the most advanced societies this World has ever seen and our cultural diversity is a positive... especially in my local cricket league

It could be said that some members who are here everyday, have the unfulfilled life and that someone whom needs to insult others is the sad one.
Thank god im not a serious forum member
