You have insufficient privileges to reply

You can probably stop your whining. I am pretty sure you have not been banned. Hell, I don't have posting privileges on the Premium BB board...and I am a mod there too. I am just too lazy to worry about it. I'm not sure if I have 10 posts there the last 5 years, and I seriously doubt anything that was controversial. Probably some glitch in the system.
You lost your posting privileges after it was discovered that you utilized a little known game called Chandeliers to nearly wipe out an entire battalion of college students.

And don’t even get me started on the white pants “creeping“ through the field at Podunk. IJS.

The majority of adults in the United States disapprove of President Joe Biden and the Democrats in Congress as the president is seeing his weakest job approval from the Washington Post/ABC News poll and Republicans leading on the generic congressional ballot.

The poll, which was released only days before Biden is giving the State of the Union, showed only 37 percent of adults in the U.S. approve of the way the president is handling his job — a new low from a Washington Post/ABC News poll — while a majority (55 percent) say they disapprove.

Can't be trusted. Poll conducted by MSM socialist lackeys.

and yet my IP is blocked from even signing in.

so yes, it can be done.

which makes my IP blocked from using any Rivals network. (though this is only one i post on anymore).

that said, if done deliberately rather than some glitch, i'm guessing it was done at a higher level than the mods, and was done for stances i've taken on the bball and fball boards, not The Cooler.

more specifically, i'm guessing it's about my stances on conference expansion/consolidation, tv money, and the money side of things, which i have been active regarding in the past.

though as with my posts here, i always lay out my case as best i can, and don't get into name calling or trolling.

again, my IP being blocked from signing in could just be some quirky glitch. (and i know it's my IP that's blocked).

but if not, i'm guessing it isn't about my Water Cooler stances.
Any mod can block your IP. You pissed one off at some point. A mod in this thread banned me
For good for calling out a racist POS on the bball board, I think I called him a right wing Fu.ck in a personal message. Anyways, get to know the right people and that won’t be a problem going forward. Hell they might even make you a mod! :)

"moderating" is just a sanitized word for censorship.

and there is no way to censor without infringing on speech and thought, or to do so "fairly".

back in the day, Peegs had posted what wouldn't be allowed, and iirc, it was pretty much limited to personal attacks and using curse words, and maybe bad mouthing the players themselves.

i have no problem with removing posts/replies that are just personal attacks with zero other content, as that would force posters to actually post or reply with some actual content other than just the personal attack, even if the content is only an explanation of why so and so is an idiot communist nazi.

but even then, that's limiting it to just removing the personal attack post, not banning.

once censorship takes place, especially on a political forum, that forum loses what it's original purpose was.

and putting up with all the posts and posters we don't like, is just an absolutely necessary part of having an open forum, and without which, it's just some level of a propaganda site.

Except the posts for certain posters with personal attacks are never taken down. It only gets taken down if you are not the same page as the moderators. Whatever like I said they will eventually get what they want on the Water Cooler which is 100% of the people walking and talking all the same lines and politics. In fact I think that is the way a lot of those posters want it anyway. The bbal board is far more interesting anyway and people are usually pretty respectful and do not go off and profanity laced tirades against those they disagree with. All boards censor some but a lot are not so one sided about it. Oh well it was fun while it lasted.
 
I don't have much use for most mods. It seems like ridicule, bad language, and insults are a one-way street around here. My question is: how long can they hold a small grudge against me for any transgression they think I have committed? I've been on these forums since the mid to late 90's and I've never seen this.
Very interesting. Can you share your story?

Is this the beginning of an unholy alliance between the shitposters and the bots?

It’s alarming the leftist mods are so oppressive they’re upsetting Chinese Communist Bots. We formed a band of misfits to fight back. Please let me know if you’re interested.
 
I just rebooted and it fixed it
@UncleMark you laugh, but I tried for about a half hour and couldn't get on. Then I rebooted and it worked.

Maybe it was the timing, but rebooting usually fixes 90% of all my computer problems. lol

What I really want to know was how did Winners get around the IP block while still being active.
