Ok, given the way things are at the moment with a new wave of bannings at the DIF, I think it may be a nice idea to collate all of our ban reasons in one handy thread.
Please let's keep it simple and not have a discussion in this thread. Let's just post them reasons.


The reason given for my ban was um, confused. At first Sean said it was because I was using the PM function to recruit members to the SZ.
When confronted on that here in chat, he subsequently realised this explanation gave weight to the idea he reads PMs and changed his mind. Settling for summat like me being a bad influence.

That was because, prior to my ban I'd spent many months on a cycle of suspension. I drew the attention of Sean and his crew by questioning them openly and in private about the tolerance of abject bigotry on the site. Eventually they would literally issue points every time I logged in. I think my personal best was being suspended within an hour of the last suspension ending :hahano: Though I claim no credit for that feat. That feat was accomplished solely off the back of certain mods literally crawling all over me.
Maybe summat to do with my having exposed Merlincunt/zhiba's support for the racist abuse of a valued member, in the infamous thread that was started as a result of the racist abuse she had endured.

ETA: I forgot to mention that in response to the racism, I started a boycott of 'race' threads. Figuring that if we stopped arguing with the Nans their threads would die a death. The DIF admin were at pains to let me know they wanted me to drop it. I couldn't understand their objection at the time but learnt at SZ1 just how much Sean values his "traffic"

No reason given.

In reality banned for having an opinion that wasn't even posted there.

So the reason for banning is: Posting on SZ and exposing Sean for the idiot he is.

I'm 100% sure it WAS Sean and not Alison.

No reason given to me either. But I did dare to express the opinion that TPV was not well managed, financially.

That seems to have been enough to get me kicked off.

I'm NOT Banned -I eventually found my password and logged in for the first time since 2012.

There was an unread PM from Sean about naughty banned members trying to recruit people for other forums. I don't think he was talking about SZ though. So I am sure he won't ban me just for signing up here as I am a Senior Member of sound reputation at DIF so no need to ban me is there? :)

When status changed to member, someone posted to someone else that they would PM them, and I responded, "You'd best be a bit careful of what you PM".

That was when some of us suspected the PM reading, and prior to STRT obtaining irrefutable evidence in the form of screen-shots catching Sean in the act iirc.

I was rendered unable to log on at all - but my status was left showing me to be an active member.

I won't be so sure of that. He doesn't care about anybody's reputation, just his own.

No reason given.

I spent my short time there arguing against Holocaust deniers, FOTls and trying to find out why I was supposedly a slave to the elite. I was accused of trolling by platyphillia as I would not accept his and others answers about supposed slavery. He was also angry at me about the Holocaust denial, I do not know if he is a mod, I got no warnings or anything, just banned.

I must admit, Marina, that my post was somewhat "tongue in cheek" but couldn't find the appropriate smiley. :chuckle:
The facts are; that reading other peoples PM's is a massive no, no. And banning people for having a "non herd" opinion is completely unreasonable and dictatorial.
Somebody referenced "tumbleweeds" as a description of the Icke forum and it is an apt one. People have been leaving the forum in droves over the last several years - and reasonable people do not do that unless something seriously wrong is going on.

I haven't been banned yet but I'm currently "temporarily suspended". I'm going to wait until my suspension is over and then make one final post that will ensure me being banned.

Edit: Is there anything anyone would like to say so I can add it to my final post?

Yes, Why was TPV set up as a Private Limited Company instead of a CIC (Community Interest Company) or Company Limited by Guarantee which is what a real "non-profit" organisation would have been.

no specified reason - hadn't posted on the forum for a week or two because i was so disgusted at what was going on - i suspect that either a mod saw me post on sz v1 that i was willing to pm people whilst i still could, to tell them about sz or one or were informed about it by someone who was a member of sz v1.

BANNED - Just now...I think, no PM, warning or anything. I was just about to post my second comment when it came up as "You do not have permission..." so logged in, logged out, logged in again and all forums are now private including my control panel.

I posted a list of multiple ID's used by moderators.

Five or so days later (as the post had been edited/deleted) I posted a thread asking the forum members if they would like to know the contents of what had been posted and then deleted, stating it included multiple ID's of mods.

For some reason that got me an instant ban.

Ho1ogram allowed me to use his account (I stated that it was me doing so in the post) and repeated a copy of the thread that had just been deleted. His account was insta-banned.

Phoenix allowed me to use his account to send a PM and his account also got instant-banned.

Those were the days. :psketti:
