Default Power trip!!!!!

SFR you have some isues going on and I am actually a mod on two other forums and I can tell you that you are not doing so hot! As a mod you are to remain nonbias and not let your personal opinions or feelings about someone interfere with doing a good job! But you did in fact do just that...I think Steve Irwin is an idiot and thats my opinion and I am entitled to it! If you did not like what I had to say about him you could have sent me a PM and asked me to remove the post or you yourself could have removed it but no, you just go on some kind of power trip and ban me? Then I create another profile just to find out why I was banned and you call me a spammer...ROFLMAO!

Anyway I lost all respect for you I have been a member on this board for along time and did not deserve the inconvenience of having to create another account. Thats right it's just a little inconvenience as I will be back on and you will not know who I am next time I post! Like I said I dont give a fvck about post counts so fvck off asshole!

lets get something straight.

The forum administrator banned the account: cell4me. I did not.

Since then, you have attempted to disrupt this forum by spamming, yes spamming with multiple accounts. While other moderators (including myself) were trying to lessen your perm man to a temp ban, you decided to illegally come back onto the forum to cause trouble. As I said previously, if you went through the right channels you might have been allowed back on. Now, every time I see a new user created from your IP range, the user will be banned. I feel bad that this forum meant so much to you that you can not live without being an active participant, however, you should have thought about the consequences before you posted.

For the record it was me who banned your account. I admitted to the ban being too harsh and having taken offence to your comments about Steve Irwin, a person who while he had done some not so smart things in his life, was a person who I admired a lot.
I did think it quite disgusting to say the following not all that long after he had died
Quote:
I think he was a fvcking idiot
Yes the f word is censored for a reason, it is against the forum rules. It may be fine at the other forums you moderate, but it is not acceptable here.
Having said that, when I logged in today, I was planning to reduce the ban to an infraction. Also I had canvassed moderator opinion and some said the ban was too harsh. Most bannings can easily enough be reversed and moderator opinion is often sought, so that members dont face a permanent ban based on the whims of one person, such as in this case, myself.
Anyway with what you have just said, most of those who supported your account being unbanned have changed their mind, so the account will stay as banned.
