    Well, well, well. For the very first time in 25 years using a hobby forum, I've been banned from a hobby site. What did I do, call someone an asshole or something like that? No, it was 5 instances of posting off topic.It's inherent that each individual thread, be it there, here, facebook, car forums, gun forums can get off topic or move off topic easily. Let's see, we start with a topic of chevy sucks, then ford is mentioned, then we move away from chevy and start discussing ford, then the thread takes another direction and it goes to automatic transmissions vs manual transmissions. Most of my posts were reactive (somebody may reply off topic to me, then I would reply back and it would be off topic), but a few were proactive. I was warned on several occasions through PM's just what kind of moderator biomed is, and every PM sent to me about him was correct. None of us are above getting points, but IMHO the points need to be justified and not singling out any one member for points when others get away with posting the same word. But this isn't why I joined the banned group. Lastly, I can't retrieve my PM's, so I have no idea what the last infraction was for. I can't skim through my postings to see the ones where the red icon is showing an infraction. All I can say is that they're in the political forum.

    It was Dr Epg for me. I think he was jealous that I'm with my booty bear.

    I laughed when I saw I was banned, and I think it's still funny. I've seen this coming for a week or so when my points went from 0-22 like a Hellcat through the quarter mile. All were for posting off topic, which most off topic infractions are a reach at best. I did have one 2 pointer for putting down someone. Look at the site through my cellphone, it appears that I received my last 5 points because I made a post about 28% of democrats wanted Trump's life to expire when he got hit in the ear, but this is just a guess as I can't log in to see what the actual infraction was. Oh well, it is what it is, the only thing I will miss is when Trump wins throwing his victory in the face of the 5-10 persons with stage IV and terminal TDS.
