  • Anybody here go to the Straight Dope BB?

    I joined today and they immediately banned me after I tried to start a new thread asking where the OT is.

    That's never happened to me before

    I lurk there and sometimes post. JohnT basically introduced me to it.

      There's no OT there. The whole forum is OT.

        UR: Though perhaps banned AH before he could really post was a brilliant example of foresight by the SD Admins .

          Well I had connection problem and triple posted a thread entitled "Where the hell is the OT?" Maybe it was that.

          Is the moderation strict over there?

          Does anyone know the mods?

            Which forum did you post it in... some Admins would be strict if you posted that spam in a forum that wouldn't like it .

            And asking a question like 'Where is Hell is the OT' is asking to be banned.

              I think Horse must have posted in the General Questions forum. Mods there get pretty pissed at people who don't read and post the same thing three times

                  Maybe, if you ask nicely, one of the regulars can speak to the mods for you...
                  No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

                    Would you?

                    I genuinely had a connection problem - it probably looked like spam

                    I posted a "where is the OT" thread in the general forum and that got deleted. So then I posted a "where the hell is the OT?" thread in the flame forum but that got triple posted.

                    Then I got banned

                      Oh, I would.

                      But I'm not a regular.

                        Come on - somebody must know someone there. This is worse than Sidgames. Even Whistler didn't ban me in my first 2 minutes on the site.

                          At this point, the prime suspects would be Imran, UR, and JohnT.

                          You know two of them have been paying attention here...

                            You're an Aussie and you spammed a board.

                            That's two strikes against you.

                              They don't even announce why you have been banned.

                              And you can't use the PM's to contact the mods.

                              LOL.
