3 days seems a bit harsh but then again I don't know what was said.
I won't miss Cos on here at all because I speak to him often anyway. It's definitely a shame if he decides not to post any more though. Not for me but for himself.
I know he enjoys it on here and will miss posting. He took his 1 day ban in a light hearted manner but I know from speaking to him that he knew what he said was out of order. I guess when he was told he had a couple of extra days he just thought "f**k it" why bother.
To be honest I really can't see the point of a 3 day ban. Either a cooler or an indefinite ban is the way to go. If somebody is that bad they shouldn't be posting at all. If someone makes a mistake then a cooler is sufficient. To have ban lengths based on severity of the incident is ridiculous. Who is judge and jury? Do the guys get a chance to defend themselves? It's just not fair.
good post ITB - I know you love Blonde because you fought so hard to be re-instated after your ban. So my thinking is that if you want so badly to be on the forum you must have respected the running of the forum otherwise you wouldn't want to be on here surely and wouoldn't have come cap in hand asking to be allowed back on? If you didn't respect the forum and the running of it you wouldn't want to be here surely? If I'm wrong and that's not the case why did you want to come back - msn and other forums like 2+2 talk about poker so you could get your fix of poker banter there. I can't understand why you would spend so much time getting yourself back on here if you are not of the same mind set and ethos. If a 3 day ban is deemed appropriate so be it, this is the forum you wanted so badly to be part of and then you criticise it. Am I missing something in the thought process here? |

Of course you don't have to agree with everything but if he was so desperate to come back onto the forum I would have thought he would have appreciated the stance that the mods take, and respected that. If he didn't why would he come back if he thought they, the mods, who are at the end of the day in charge, were crap? |
