So you got an email, Gunner got an email, both to tell you why and what will be. THAT is what I don't get. I never got a n email, just suddenly "There was a problem with this page, please try again" or AFTER composing a message/reply "Posting is not allowed at this time" THEN, no way to view or log in.
Apparently there is not just "breaking rules" but levels of broken..I mean, a BJ comment gets ya 2 weeks outta the tavern..if ya say "you are a dicque" you lose the whole forum for who knows how long...Colleen was posting and no one else could read it ( bozo'd), and Gunners TOTALLY not bad picture, gets him 2 weeks.
I think they ( she) just mete out whatever they/she feel like..A broken rule is not on a scale of 1-10, it's either broke or it ain't broke, and it's 2 weeks, or 30 days, or a year, or just the Tavern, or no forum at all...thats what gets confusing as hell. I mean, If I wanted to get a ban, might as well jump the grenade like Butt did.

I thought you said you called Robyn and talked to her.

I did, she just said 'what did you expect me to do?' about the post to sancho..but no word on WHAT was happening. Other than that the "higher ups' were doing the steering and cracking down.
I didn't ask and she can't talk about anyone else's banning anyway, but she alluded that some of it is out of her hands.

Well there you have it. You did get an answer over the phone in fact. She inicatrd to me that my deal wasn't a result of her but the higher ups doing a drive by and not seeing the humor.
Be real with yourself. If you out and out called Ron a dick
then you know your gonna get popped. That's one of the main
objectives behind this latest surge. Would you be offended if he called you a dick?
If your gonna hate. Hate fair.

Would I be offended? NFW. I am and I proudly admit it.
I am in no way wondering what I did, I prefaced the post with taking one for the team, I called a spade a spade or a dick a dicque.
What I was more interested in finding out is who decides the level of whack, and what are the parameters of whack...she shied away from having a real answer.
Then we got to talking about kids and dogs and all was cool, it's not her I need to track down, it's up the ladder.

If you were drinking and running your mouth well then there's your problem. You know you can make it a joke or deny it all you want but it got your ass booted. Right? And you say you called Robyn and started asking her why? Dude can you imagine sitting at your desk trying to keep the whole taunton web world running and updated then some drunk yahoo calls you wanting to know why he got booted? After he called another poster a dick? After everyone had been told that it wouldn't be tolerated? I'd never let you back in. You don't contribute enough to have to put up with that. Nobody does.
And I have it on good authority that you were very drunk. So drunk in fact that you called this person and had the same conversation as the night before and didn't even realize it. Just like you had never talked. And that was in the morning.
Think about it. You blew your own foot off.

Glad you have it all figured out there. Kinda funny as I never had to ask why I was booted I knew that, it was more about what gives for the rules and punishment.
And not that it's any of your bizness, but that "same conversation, I didn't realize" was actually a continuation.
But you think what ever ya want. You will anyway.

Denial? Ok, I have 3 scripts that I shouldn't mix, Parafon Forte, cymbalta, and meloxicam. All can kill a liver w/alcohol. So again, while yer assuming, assume I don't care about my liver.
I refused the oxycon script. Altho it would kill the back pain better. And me.
While you were playing "last post tag" last night, I got busy GETTING what Boss was banned for saying ( yah I can read the Tav. again, go figgure).
No sense in prying into ones personal life or accusing from a third party's observation..I just go ahead and take comfort in living flesh in front of me.
I still like you too, you crack me up. When ya get an idea in yer head that is close but just not quite right on, I chuckle even more.
As an aside, did ya hear about the ele. that got killed in Richmond's Fazoli's Fri? Working on a 220 convection oven, and I guess he didn't do something he shoulda..zap, poof, dead.
I thought of you, and wanted say again, be careful man.

So now your saying you were sober?
Hey electrical deaths happen for various reasons. I always see dead bodies when I plan my work. Keeps me thinking about how I can prevent it.

I've shared all I care to about my meds, and the muscle relaxer ( the parafon) makes me stupid, so , I can say with certainty that there was no alcohol involved.
Sober? maybe..relaxed? YUP..LOL. I don't drive or do anything in the shop if I have to eat a few to keep the pain at bay.
I do find this whole rigmarole vastly entertaining , you'd think the Tavern and BT was our oxygen they way some of us carry on.
I imagine I'll be back as Sphere in due course, and either the forum will be acceptable or not, either way, I've soon got a handful of other interests to focus on, and I get the feeling BT will become less of my attention in the free moments I have.
As my ex wife used to say " A new life comes along every waking minute,pick one".
I've a greater understanding of what is important to me in the "now" , and pain free is my focus, then maintaining that while persueing other things that I enjoy, without the hassle of what's it gonna mean to a forum moderator or casual viewer.
Being the ass that I am, I prefer to say what is on my mind, and stifling and censoring is OK, but after we run out of similes and alternate ways of speaking our minds that are acceptable, I guess I've reached my apex and time to STFU and move on. I said what I was wanting to say, and took the blow for it.
There are some posters whom I worship the ground they will be in (G)
Thanks for the laughs, I really do enjoy the show.

Snork. Your killing me here.
If you take it all that serious then moving on probably would be a good idea. Before you show up at someones house or office wearing a diaper,with a pistol and a barbie doll.
I don't know why the Barbie doll it just sounded funny.

Me serious? LMAO. I said, I enjoy the up in arms goin on, its a riot. It's a shame, it's a riot, but a riot non-the-less.
Diaper and pistol I can come up with, ain't seen a Barbie doll since my kid was 5.
As far as "moving on", yer not really the mentor I'd take that kind of advice from.
