No offsite drama was brought onto the site. Especially anything to do with BLM. To assume so and use it as a reason for infracting / banning people speaking up about BLM is ludicrous.

It's not a bad thing to highlight the different cases. And when asked why they were merged, to be met basically with the response of 'well there's other issues to discuss such as corona' is so insensitive and problematic.

There were not 40 threads, 15 at a push but all with details of a life lost in different situations.

Certainly didn't clog up the forum like I've seen spam in the last few months talking about 'manshuns' or whatever irrelevant BS trolling was taking up the whole side bar.

also may ah just add it really is hard t'believe you when yew have let users run their racist views here for years with no consequences

I too would have merged those threads then tbh

Admin not aware of what’s going on on the forum says it all.

This isn't a dig but it's a shame you werent here to put it across like this - we were told by the other admin to discuss corona instead.

I think you should just own up to a mistake and unban Qua as he was literally just making his point. People that weren’t even banned dont wanna return to TIBB anymore after all that yesterday

Banning us all? Only 2 bans yesterday were for spamming but this has all already been posted earlier in the thread....try reading through it.

also my thread asking t'complain about an admin member was simply deleted, NO pms asking what the issue was, NO response from admin, just my complaint ignored

Be fair now, Josy can't be held accountable for actions undertook by another admin.

I did check before I said 40 - there are 14 separate threads still up in SD and then the merged thread had 21 different ones in it

yeah the locking of the paige, morgan, lucas etc threads 2 minutes after they were posted and also blocking our pm’s so we couldn’t even ask why we got the bans was so stupid nnn

Message an admin or mod to complain.

I don't get how a funky way of spelling words that you can clearly understand is so much worse than members on here 24/7 trolling and making racist, sexist, bigoted comments.

No one blocked your private messages, that's automatic.

These accusations are getting overly silly now.

I think weve spent plenty of time replying to all queries that have been posted in here.

It's a rule.

I think you agreed to the forum rules when you signed up, take this as a last warning.

And hopefully your friends can see so they know why you get banned if you continue.

This isn't true. I've been banned plenty of times and never had that problem. I was able to PM until I'd sent messages to mod & admin asking for reasoning behind my ban.

This is your forum, how can you say 'No more questions about the way I run things because I've had enough'?
