I stole your wisdom and am using it as my tag line. Thank you very much tenkani. It rings so very true.

I think I also stole someones picture but I don't have one of my own and it's the only one I like.

TA DA!

It's not totally true. You won't find them in Mensa.

I have no idea why you were banned from DV, or if it was even intentional.

If you still want to return to DV, pls send me a message via DS and tell me your handler name. I'll look into it and get your IP Addresses ban.Apologies to those who may have been accidentally banned.-

This is several weeks back, it's not really lately ; and I am not aware of having spammed. Message via DS ? Do you mean a private message ? I am not registered, probably it doesn't work.

Furthermore, I wonder how people could be accidentally banned ?

If a range of IP addesses was banned and your IP happened to fall within that range the effect would be the same as if you had been deliberately banned.

That's obvious. I should have understood that.
But I thought of something (this is more for Lise, I suppose).
Most of the time I use the Tor network (vny!://tor.eff.org) for surfing. The Tor network consists of a large number of computer which relay the IP packets. I can't post either when using the Tor network, so it the IP numbers of the Tor network must have been banned as well for good measure, I suppose !
