I think what he means is that your post count has been wiped somehow.

no it's just that you have not reached a large enough number to be at 0.00 which must be some sort of record for someone who has acctually posted. you've been a member for over a 1000 days and have 2 posts so far, so you would have to have 100 posts to breach the 0.00 posts per day threashold.

Been on another forum here in Australia but sadly have been banned for having an opinion on politics ,I think the Moderators are taking a back hander from the oposition , I wont mention the name of the forum but in the early days it was a very good techo site but unfortunatly these days has gone to the dogs.


cheers

So long as you stick to general chat I think expressing political opinions is fine. Unless you are left wing and a certain member called Nick_uk becomes a moderator... then you may be in trouble.

Well Well Well , I can run but it looks like I cant hide , before you pull the plug on me may I just say that it realy doesnt matter if your left or right or in the middle the point realy is that anyone can have an opinion , it realy is sad when an individual is banned from a site when his or her opinion doesnt fit with the so called general population.
well thats me done , you can pull the plug now , I shall fade into obscurity.

cheers All

banned

I Too was banned from a site as well BIG TED for venting my views at some of the appaling laws the Australian Government are passing right now.
Those that had me removed were right wingers whose views I heard but didn't agree with.
They too must have been taking back handers from the liberals,it's an appaling circumstance BIG TED.
Some people here are doing them same job they were a month ago and geeting paid a lot less.Some of the employers here are having a field day, sacking and then re hiring the same employees minus their penalty rates and other used to be entitlements.
I hope this post is in the right thread? If not please let me know where is should have been placed, so I can remedy the situation next time.

A very good point and I agree completly la gran siete however the very people that have caused my banning are the people that have been abusive towards me , I was banned for one reason and one reason only , my views were not the same as the majority on that site but this is not the place to discuss past events that happened on another site . thankyou all for listening.


cheers

Well, with that sort of entrance you seem like you will fit in no problem, so we could say "where the bloody hell have you been?" good to see you.

I think it is that JagoPlasma finds it amusing that although you have officially been a member for the best part of 4 years you are still classed as "new".


Hope this helps,
