Don't fall for the "banning" trick like poor P.C. did.
There's no such thing on DV - it's a myth. Probably there's a technical problem you're overlooking on your end. Don't give those tyrant
[FONT color=#bf5f00]asswipes[/FONT] more credit than they deserve.
I wrote the following as part of my response to UBF in the old forum. I'll quote the relevant part here:
-- start quote --Banning on DV is a myth. It's a lie perpetrated to keep the internet illiterate at bay from acting out irresponsibly on a relatively anonymous bulletin board.
...
The admins as well as mods themselves know that there isn't a damn thing they can do other than "issuing warnings" which in of themselves are just hot air.
Good luck to them trying to "ban" anyone who's on a dynamic IP.
"Oh we can ban the whole domain" is the usual self righteous response to that. Of course, to anyone who's finished grade 2, that's also more smoke and mirrors.
Yeah, I wanna see them go ahead and ban the whole Telus domain... [img style="CURSOR: pointer" src="vny!://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/smilie/konfus/p035.gif[/img]
-- end quote -- So no need to glorify them, or accept any of their BS. If you can post at all, then you're not "banned". If you're on a high bandwidth connection and you can't access the site (meaning they blocked your IP) just change your IP and post as usual.
