Angry Just been banned...

Well as the title says it... I've just been banned from one of the bb forums in my home country. The funny thing is that i didn't een do anything wrong (or too wrong anyway). Somebody made fun of me, so i replyied by making fun of that person (nothing obscene or anything though... he was saying it hurt his eyes to watch all my quotes, so obviously i quoted him in my next post ).
This is when the administrator stepped in, takning a very firm stance and calling me a moran because i posted such replyies. Anyway, i told him i would be a moran to take this kind of crap from other morans (not too offensive huh? ... perhaps i wasn't referring to him right? ). And then i explained that i liked the forum and wanted to remain there to learn a thing or to and i asked him/them to be polite from now on so that we could get along.

Anyway, you know what he did? He banned me! I mean that seems outrageous to me. The motha f****. I just hate people who can't stand being criticised and react in such childish manners.

Ehhh... i guess i'll just have to get along with this forum from now on. Don't get me wrong, it's a great forum with great people... I really mean that! It's just that the other one was in my language and it was easier for me to understand certain things.

What site were you banned from? I do not understand why people are not allowed to speak their minds (being honest and speaking honestly) - at least "some people" and "others" seem to be able to say just about anything they want and it appears as if the owners of the site allow it to continue... I think when a site is considering banning someone they should contact the individual first and see if something can be worked out and at the very least give an explanation as to why you are banned and notify you that you have been banned as well. Take Care, John H.

I agree 100% . Some people just need to learn the meaning of "civilised" I guess...

Don't sweat it dawg. I was banned from Musclemag.com and some other forum as well because I spoke my mind on several occasions. Musclemag was full of one sided assholes. They were all these "HIT trainers and any other training phylosophy was "wrong" in their eyes which just blew my mind. Here I was at the time at 220 and these little 190 pounders are telling me my training phylosophy was wrong. That just blew my mind. I swear I would have choked them if they were in front of me talking to me the way they did and what happened? I was banned. I couldn't believe it. In all, I'm actually glad because I would get so worked up when I went in there. Everything I said was picked apart. I would actually logoff the computer and be filled with hostility. I didn't need that. I actually went back in there about a month ago just to see if the ban was still on and to my surprise it was no longer present. I didn't make a single post and just left. I wouldn't waist my time writing a single 2 work post over there but if I did it would have read: fuq you.

Hi Firestorm. I was wondering if MuscleMag had a forum. I did not get around to seeing yet for myself. I do not get why people would not be willing to listen to others since no one knows it "all". Everyone has something to say and to add... I can't blame you for feeling the way you do... Did the site ever tell you what it was that you were "doing wrong" to "ban you"? Did they every give you any chance to "fix it" or did they ever notifiy you you were banned? How did you find out? I got banned from www.bodybuilders.com without any explanation and I didn't even know what it was I was supposed to be "doing wrong" - I asked for an explanation and for "guidance" as to what I "am supposed" to "do" or "not" with no answer. I asked if people who were BiSexual or if they were Black were "allowed" or "not" to even BE on that Board - no answer. All I have ever done is speak the truth and be as accurate as I can be. Keep in touch. Take Care, John H.

Hi John my friend. To simply answer your question,,, NO they did not even have the class to tell me I was banned. I only knew that one day my access was denied. BUSTENOUT was a moderator over there at the time who became a friend of mine there told me they didn't like my political views on one board and that I pissed off a few other people with my refusal to accept their believe that HIT was the routine above all other routines. they were ban crazy John, they banned people left and right. Very poorly run forum and lots of snobby attidudes.
Also please,,, those ass wipes are not affiliated with the magazine I don't believe. I may be wrong but no professional bodybuilders ever go in there. Believe me,, save yourself the time and effort, you won't like it there.
By the way I knew you were Bisexual but didn't know you were black. Not that there is anything wrong with that. hahaha (got that from Seinfeld) I loved that episode. "I think he is gay... not that there is anything wrong with that". the whole episode after they made reference to gay,, they would add that line "not that there is anything wrong with that. It was very funny.

Seinfeld ruled, and MM was a crappy board. I probably had 10 posts or less there before I gave up, I almost got banned (just edited) because I mentioned a website, since they have a board wide official sponsor.

Hi Firestorm. No I myself am not a Black Man, I am White (NOT that that matters really!). ALL are Men brought here to this earth by God. I brought that up because I know Black Men that ARE TREMENDOUS people too and sensed that that Board did not really welcome Men who happen to also be Black and/or Men who also happen to be BiSexual. I was just trying to ge them to tell me honestly if BiSexual Men and Black Men were not allowed on their Board. I got the impression both "classes of Men" were not welcome since there seems to be a "you are not really welcome" (but not actually SAYING it) attitude ... (Got to go for now - will continue this...) TDGC, John H.

(continued) (had to leave and come back) I thought I went to the MuscleMag site once to see if they had a Forum and I thought I did not see one available... I like MuscleMag International a lot and think Robert Kennedy has done a lot for people really and sincerely interested in Bodybuilding. I once wrote to him about Mohamed Makaawy (INCREDIBLY BEAUTIFUL MAN!!!) (spelling wrong I know but I can not leave this right now to check..) and wanted to express my SINCERE APPRECIATION and ADMIRATION to Him for the DAMN GOOD work he has done and asked Mr. Kennedy to relay that to him and to also ask Mr. Kennedy that in the future when he utilized photos of Bodybuilders if he would also acknowledge and state who each is so we all could know which Men were doing the beautiful work shown and that it is a showing of respect to each Bodybuilder and the damn good work they do to acknowledge them and recognize them every time since they help each of us to do our very best too. I notice Mr. Kennedy DOES now give credit to each Bodybuilder in all the photos in the books he publishes and I am very grateful for that and the Men who DO the tremendous work! To me if a Man WORKS damn hard and achieves BEAUTIFUL results he SHOULD be respected and acknowledged for the benefit of all. From what you say it sounds as if the Forum and site you speak of would not be connected to MuscleMag International but I can not say with any accuracy.... I hope not...

I also like Ironman Magazine, Muscular Development, Natural Bodybuilding too - they all provide a lot of good information and inspiration...

Take Care, John H.

I think this is where the bottom line should be drawn. In the end this is all that should matter. Unfortunately, in human society, envy has been the dominant feeling and not admiration. Too bad. We could have gotten a far way...

Hope I didn't get too phylosophical or bore anyone to death...

Take care,
