I understand if I've been banned

But come on at least send a warning message, I was the one who did the gobbledegook thread, I really am very sorry and all, but how does that get me banned? Or is there a tally of previous offences (that I have forgotten about but probably exist)

If you're banned how can you post?

Icimoi · 23/06/2014 10:37

I don't know anything about that thread, but have they given you reasons?

kali110 · 23/06/2014 10:37

Why were you banned?

VivaLeBeaver · 23/06/2014 10:38

Missed that thread. What was it about the thread that got you banned?

lollipop2013 · 23/06/2014 10:38

Using IE instead of chrome and another account, naughty but I needed an answer as am completely unable to access MN through Google chrome and think it is unfair I had no warning, I hardly caused that much trouble, did I?

I missed the thread and would like details.

lollipop2013 · 23/06/2014 10:42

it was just literally gobbledegook, I didn't call anyone names, wasn't nasty just started a thread with no meaning (well in my eyes anyway) I am sorry if this is against the rules, thought it was just personal attacks and beyond the pale etc and my thread wasn't either of those.

well it's impossible to say without reading the thread isn't it Hmm

ShadowsShadowsEverywhere · 23/06/2014 10:42

They will send you an email shortly explaining they have banned and why. Starting a thread us not going to get you answers, they will just ban you on this account aswell. Walk away OP.

lollipop2013 · 23/06/2014 10:46

I know, I already reported my thread so they know I am here

SabrinaMulhollandJjones · 23/06/2014 10:47

I saw that thread. What made you start it? Confused

lollipop2013 · 23/06/2014 10:51

I'm not really sure, but did not think it would cause trouble

OP posts:
BertieBotts · 23/06/2014 10:52

Pretty sure you get an email if you're banned so it's probably just a browser issue.

Why don't you, um, email MN instead of asking on AIBU? Confused

hashtagwhatever · 23/06/2014 10:53

I didn't see the thread. Mnhq will have given you a reason?

lollipop2013 · 23/06/2014 10:53

I have had no emails. Am constantly checking. Not sure how to email mn

I saw that thread, twas very odd indeed.

What possessed you?!

SaucyJack · 23/06/2014 10:58

What was the thread about?

FruVikingessOla · 23/06/2014 10:59

I saw the thread too and assumed you were drunk. But it was meaningless gobbledegook - it wasn't about anything.

Perhaps they deleted it thinking it would start a wave of copy-cat threads?

Don't know about it being a banning offence though.

Email MNHQ on [email protected]

JamJimJam · 23/06/2014 11:00

Yes, I saw that thread. Most odd.

BuzzardBird · 23/06/2014 11:00

Well before anyone can help you they would need to know what might have upset MNHQ?

NotAnotherPackedLunchBox · 23/06/2014 11:07

The thread was odd and was suffering from caps lock problems, but unless it degenerated to something really nasty it was nothing compared to some of the vile goady fucker or emotional vampire troll threads that are allowed to stand.

littlemisssarcastic · 23/06/2014 11:09

IIRC, When I was banned, it happened completely out of the blue and I emailed but it took a very long time to receive a reply so I couldn't log in for quite some time.

I understand why you are doing what you are doing OP and hope you get the answers from MNHQ that you deserve very soon.

KoalaFace · 23/06/2014 11:12

Probably because it was a massive waste of everyone's (including MNHQ's) time.

Idontseeanyicegiants · 23/06/2014 11:14

I think I saw the thread, were you making a point about the trolling that's been going on or was that a different one?
Didn't see anything offensive in there, just bloody weird!!

StillaChocoholic · 23/06/2014 11:19

I don't see the problem with the thread. It was random and pointless but wasn't doing any harm.
