two day suspension.

Wow, that's surprising.

arch, now *I'm* going to have to ban you for 2 days here for discussing cougarboard!

MikeWaters · 08-19-2005, 01:49 AM

831 donors. Many people (like me) have donated more than once. Trust me, if it's costing 8000 dollars to host that site over 2 to 4 years, something is very, very wrong.

banned for discussing cougarguard??? Seriously? What'e being left out in this story, Arch. Surely it can't be that simple.

Sometimes the levying of penalties on that site just makes me wonder.

Where did you discuss it Archaea? Was it in a post or in chat? I wonder why they come down on this site but not the daily herald site or utefans etc... Seems a bit ridiculous to me.

El Jefe would classify this site as "competing" therefore "promoting" it is against his rules.

Call me crazy, but I bet he's keeping a close eye on us.

and my chat was interrupted and I received an immediate two ban.

He said I was advertising. I appealed on the basis I receive no remuneration for encouraging friends for also checking out this site.

MikeWaters · 08-19-2005, 04:24 AM

is cougarboard case law or statute the basis of your appeal?

Archaea · 08-19-2005, 04:25 AM

of course I'll make more money by not being there.

That's ridiculous. Maybe if they didn't run CB like communist Russia or Nazi Germany, members wouldn't be fleeing faster than white people in Detroit.
