Ok, mikey started acting like a hoopdidoopal f*cktard... He responded to my thread

and immediately afterwards banned my IP, or nickname, or both.
Could someone reading this message paste the following either into that thread above if it's still alive, or in a new thread titled "From Raging Poodle! to mikey".
Much appreciated.
Hey mikey,
Isn't it hoopdidoopal of you to be responding to me, yet at the same time blocking my IP at 207.102.64.65? (and banning my nickname as well. Not too sure if you did both, or just one.)
You just did it a few minutes ago.
All of my responses are yielding vny! 500.
Undo it.

Got it covered for you, Raging Poodle.

That was quick. Thanks very much. (//vny!://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/Love/1.gif)
I truly don't have the time or patience to deal with such antics. I'm more than prepared to sever my ties with DV if I can't post in the regular way.
That's very nice of Lise. Bless.
I wouldn't have post it though. It's not because of you, Raging Poodle, it's because I'm tired of DV's crap. That's why I am rarely involved over there. But, mind you, I do like the gossip now and then.
Isn't it funny, Mike asking questions about how to approach the interview? I mean, if you own a site, shouldn't you be up-to-date about the whole issue and what's been going on? A little too late if you ask me.
Ah well. The drama continues.
I'm sort of a lurker. Not contributing there but it's always good to lurk around every so often.

Well done, Lise - but what's the betting it will achieve nothing at all?
True, nothing much Gopher but I'll try just about anything for Raging Poodle after he tickled me silly with his salami jokes. (//vny!://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/Happy/21.gif)
Pity you added 'jokes' to the end of your sentence.

ROTFL. That's one funny picture!! It made my day, thanks! (//vny!://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/more/schilder/n030.gif)
That ferret on the phone is hilarious!

Surprisingly, this time it led a to pretty quick resolution of the issue.
Within a few minutes of Lise's paste, I was able to post again.
I had a couple of theories as to why I was banned:
a) the usual powertripping, because earlier I was demonstrating how easy it was to circumvent the silly profanity filter he had installed only yesterday,
b) or, it could've been an error, one of those hundreds of mistakes made yearly on DV. After all, Delete link is right next to the Ban link...
