liminal_luke Posted March 23, 2015 (edited) I figure The Dao Bums must really be doing something right. Otherwise why would anybody ever make a stink about being suspended or banned; they´d just shrug their shoulders and go.

GrandmasterP Posted March 23, 2015 (edited) Anybody who gets banned from here has had to be an unutterable pillock. It's not as if the mods don't warn people. I've been warned often enough. Mainly politely sometimes not. Albeit that 'not' was back in the day of a psycho mod, no longer here; who was all over me like a bad rash. Total bunny boiler she was and no mistake.

zerostao Posted March 24, 2015 "... banned bans and , almost overnight; the forum became much more polite." interesting, isnt it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stosh Posted March 25, 2015 (edited) If its true, which, I really doubt, unless it was the ban-ers which were forced to find a different alternative. Which isnt always a bad thing. Edited March 25, 2015 by Stosh 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nikolai1 Posted March 25, 2015 Really amused that both GMP and MH have been warned about their behaviour. Ha! Clearly they weren't always wise and tranquil gentlemen. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marblehead Posted March 25, 2015 Really amused that both GMP and MH have been warned about their behaviour. Ha! Clearly they weren't always wise and tranquil gentlemen. Belly laughs. If one considers both our backgrounds one would understand the likelyhood of such a thing happening. If someone pisses me off I am going to respond in a pissed off manner. That's just the way I am. I don't go crying to mommy. But then, wu wei is what it is. Even wu wei people get pissed off now and then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nikolai1 Posted March 25, 2015 In three years I've never seen you pissed off. Maybe it doesn't actually happen anymore and you haven't realised. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marblehead Posted March 25, 2015 In three years I've never seen you pissed off. Maybe it doesn't actually happen anymore and you haven't realised. Well, yeah, it has been said by a couple members here that it seems I have mellowed out a lot from when I first joined the forum. But then, it might be that nearly all the people who have pissed me off have since been banned or left the board. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
