Well I saw a thread a bit ago,a person complaining about another bein banned, I typed a long message and went to post....thread has been closed. SHIT. I am a 2 finger typer,and quite slow at it. Anyway I wanted to say this. I was banned once quite some time ago.I got into a verbal battle with a certain fella and I got banned because of MY actions.I will NOT mention his name because it is water under the bridge and it would not be fair to him. Did I deserve it??? According to the TOU, yes.I looked at is a new beginning, I created a new name and changed my outlook. I do not own this site, I must play by the rules set by the folks that DO own this site.I honestly cannot imagine not bein able to come here and intake the vast amount of info that folks have to offer.If you have ever been banned....you probably deserved it,just as I did. Much respect to everyone here,Hey...lets get high!!! Much love!!:ying:

What bothers me sometimes ,is the people who take it personal enough not to come back.I mean im sure some are trouble makers and such.And some would probably like certain people not to return.But most i think ,just have a bad day or don't follow the rules ect ect. And get banned.I just couldn't imagine not returning and starting over.Lots of great contributors ,disappear this way.But thats why life's about choices....

Live and learn. Everyone does the former, not everyone does the latter. :D Good to see you are among those who do both Useful.

I'm on username number two, myself. I wasn't banned, but I made a mistake IRL which caused the same result, starting over with a new handle. I made a decision to be the best me in here the second go around, just the same as I do in life. Not to say that I was a jerk with my prior name, I wasn't. I'm just making a conscious effort to not let the message boards change my personality. I do my best not to judge people. The only people I don't like, are the ones who never have anything nice to say, and they are few. People are human and individuals and I like that. I find grudges to be a waste of time. I'm a very forgiving person.

Starting over can be a healthy thing, when you have a positive mind.
:D

I think most have had there share of disagreements. If you cant agree to disagree you will have a hard time on any public forum...There no reason to make it personnel this is where most fail and end up Banned...When the names start flying your normal response is to fight back. Be the bigger man dont fall into that trap..

ive never been banned but i have the same sentiment towards the cats tha run the site.

no disrespect BUT i can read the TOU from back to front and will surely forget something and still run into a fence here and there (lol, if i smoked more i would be able to memorize the damned TOU).

i always try to get ppl to understand that unless were face to face you have to take my typing for what its worth and i am as genuine on here as i am in person. been one way for too long to try and be something im not.

so once i again i remind moderators, just lemme know the how/who/what/when/where and the why of what ive done and it wont happen again. its not about fearing the ban its about my respect level and seeing this site literally as someone elses home. i wouldnt want you disrespecting my home cause thats what i pay for

do unto others as you would have them do unto you

Someones paying for this. Therefore, their rules.

this site is actually paid for by seed donations to the server fund and subscriptions. Gypsy said a while back that he hadnt had to dip his hand in his pocket for quite some time.
