Yeah im banned from shoutbox with not even the slightest warning.
And Bullfrog.
I dont want to earn any points from RD.
What for? Is RD gonna give me RD $$$?

I just thought RD would be civil enough to let me know/at least warn me.
WTH...
Anyways... Hope whoever did this feels great behind his monitor. LOL.


<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>As far as i can tell it was for 2 things

1. Asking to be spoonfed via shotbox
2. Constantly posting your topics right after you make them pleeing for answers.

im just relaying info. I have a feeling the mod who did it though would have told you though.

Your topic heading though probably did not score any points though at all.</div>



So you are relaying info?
Why cant that person just come out and say why???
Pleeing for answers???
Well i got my car back and was just updating.

But its fine.
I guess its cos my car is worth around $4000 stock here thats why i want to take care of it.
And if you dont wanna help just say so... Not beat around the bush like a panzy.
Close/Delete/Whatever you want.
But i like this site, cant say the same for the panzy that bans me without at least warning me.

" Please Tell Me Why The Hell Im Banned From The Shout Box?, I login today morning and im banned??? WTF?"
A topic title like that is not going to get any sympathy to get you back to the shout box, its not given that you can use it, you still have access to the forums, where the MAIN source of information is. Your topic title came off as self entitled. That doesn't make someone feel bad for you. You came across as b****ing just in the topic title. Your mouth is going to get you in more trouble. Calling the staff pansy does not get you on anyone's good side ether.

Majik doesn't do something without reason or without telling someone. You didn't get a warning for any of it just some time off from the shout box,
and i GAVE you the reasons why you were banned from the shout box.


So you will do the following,
1. stop making threads about being banned from the shoutbox, the reasons were given AND you didnt even get a warning.
2. stop insulting staff by calling them panzys

Im locking this as well, your going to get yourself into more trouble if I leave it open. Please do not make a 3rd topic regarding your shoutbox ban.

Check these 2 threads when the other staff are around they will probably weight in as well.


We all care about our cars and if you want to tell us about everything with your car make a post. We didn't ban you from the site, just removed a privilege so contribute some knowledge chill out for a while and ask nicely in a few weeks and im sure admin or super mod will lift your ban.

I appreciate your passion for your car and desire to learn. I urge you to continue posting, asking for questions, and searching for answers in our vast wealth of knowledge we have available for you. However, you've repeatedly posted in the shoutbox, "Please check my thread! [link] " and you've been asked to stop. Maybe you placed the shout and never watched the replies to see the warnings to stop. Regardless, we have a "View New Posts" link for a reason. We don't want members putting a shout immediately after a post, "Look at my thread!" It was literally in the shoutbox within a minute of your post.

The fact that you didn't realize you were banned from the shoutbox until this morning shows that you posted in the Shoutbox and weren't even watching for a reply. RED ZMAN and I both saw your shout, and discussed your ban before it happened, IN THE SHOUTBOX. You were banned almost immediately.

(09:54 AM) daneeboy83 - Can some people pls read my thread. Thanks. http://www.rdtiburon.com/index.php?s...p;#entry401982

You have a 30 day ban from the shoutbox.

Maybe you caught me and RED ZMAN on a bad day.

I apologize for the lack of communication. I thought my PM went through. It was posted in the moderator forum as a reminder to lift your ban after 30 days and to document why I banned you.

Edit: There is no reason to make multiple threads. You posted one thread this morning at 3:30 a.m. local time. I replied as quickly as possible (5 hours later). Bullfrog gave you the reasons I posted in the moderator forum. I did not issue a warning, I let you slide and just gave you a ban from the shoutbox. Would you have preferred I issued a warning along with it? I was trying to cut you some slack.

I don't "feel great behind my monitor." I was in a hurry when I banned you yesterday and thought the PM went through before I left work. I had to go volunteer with United Way for a homeless veterans organization and didn't have time to worry about these little things. I actually feel bad about banning you, but it seems to have finally worked to get our point across to you.

<span style="font-size:14pt;line-height:100%">I'm opening this up temporarily so danee can complain - so I don't have to warn him for being off-topic in other threads</span>

<span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:100%">I will delete and warn any posts other than those of staff and danee.</span>

Just close it.
Im bigger then that.
Im over it now.
Bleh.

Just wished i got warned through a message at least.

Just as you left work in hurry.
So did i.
I typed in the shoutbox and then left straight away.
Look into your system then you will know.
Thats why i didnt get your guys message on shoutbox.
Why not even a warning?

Are you trying to teach me a lesson?
I came here to learn about the cars my country makes.
Not for you to make points to me...

So this is open for me and admins only?
Well then its how many vs Danee??
Just close it and lets carry on with life.
Got 99 problems.............. FIGURE THE REST

Dan, do you not read? Majik even said he tried to message you and it didnt go through.

You been here long enough to learn the rules, we are not singling you out, its not You vs WORLD.

Stop with the drama queen act. YOU STILL HAVE ACCESS TO ALL THE INFO ON THE SITE TO LEARN ABOUT YOUR CAR.

Unkay...

You were in the SB when we posted about it. Before you got banned. As far as I've seen, we don't HAVE to tell you anything.

But since you asked, I'll take responsibility for it, I should have checked out and made sure it was in your warnings. I'll do that now so you have a record. Remember, you need to ask to have SB bans lifted when the time is up.
