Yep. I've been banned from a forum (it's not there anymore though).

Someone started spouting "God is great" on a thread, and I waded in. Next thing I know all my post on that thread were deleted, and I got a pm saying (basically) STFU. I asked why I could not speak and got banned for my cheek.

That's no accolade being booted off Ch4 forums. Say the wrong thing there and the odds are that someone with 30 dozen accounts will use them all to complain, and because the mods have no idea who is who just boot anyone who gets more than 4 complaints against them.
That place is famous for it.

I was banned from a forum called grumpycunts.com.

The sole purpose of the forum was to flame and abuse others.

I was banned for being too abusive.

Yes, I've been banned from a forums - but it's hardly worthy of that title

It was one of those forums full of trolls, assorted weirdos and on top of that, it was owned/run by a couple of really evil little shits, who would deliberately cause trouble using assumed alias's to subsequently increase traffic as people logged on to see the fighting and flaming. It ran/runs on conflict.

Really evil dump of a place - getting banned is a good thing from there.

I think it can be a hard job if you are in the position to have to decide to warn or ban someone on a forum.
I have actually Banned myself from a forum! wink.gif

It really can be a very hard thing to decide to do, sometimes you have to, but I consider it a defeat if you could not resolve the problem with a warning or a PM.

I don't think it's necessarily a defeat - sometimes it's simply impossible to reason with people, howevever may warnings you give them, or PMs you send them.
