    Nein Nein ve have ways of stopping dis. you must not question ze mods!

    Unbelievable! Is the fear so entrenched now on Vb that they are stopping any semblance of free speech.

    Is it now true that on VB the largest number of log ins are from members checking to see if they have been banned?

    He got banned for repeatedly putting a phone number in his signature telling people to call Bob Brisco. Even after it was removed repeatedly by staff. How many times do you think we're going to delete it without banning him? I would have banned him the second time if it was my call. No one even knew this thread existed when he was banned.

    Joe why didn't anyone PM me I would have stopped if I was asked.

    I was given an infraction for posting a PRIVATE PHONE NUMBER... but its not a private phone number its the one from Internet Bands own website.

    BTW (different topic) what is wrong with the vb.com Private Message system, when I reply to PM's it shows my reply being blank.. are the messages actually getting through or is the recipient getting those messages. Is this another vb5 bug?

    I have sent like 3 PMs on vb.com since the VB5 upgrade and all before 5.0.2 was released. Not really sure- if you want to PM me there I will let you know if I get the text or not.

    If that is what the infraction said I think the appropriate course of action is to discuss the infraction with the person who gave it to you BEFORE you re-make the same signature.

    I did reply to him and it sent him a blank message.

    I didn't get banned for a few hours later... and I wasn't even online then.

    Aww who removed my Joe Avatar. :D
