Looks like I apparently said something to upset the authorities over at ED. Instead of "Banned" though...it now says "Posting rights revoked" Revoked sounds permanent to me...otherwise it would say "suspended"? Getting banned from a forum I never use is pretty much a non-issue for me however. That's A+ customer relations right there...good job ED!

My bet is that you some how p1ssed off one the the knob gobbling ED mods that sometimes darken SimHQ's door step and he/she/it has decided to get his own back on ED forums by doing that to you
70% warn , it doesnt take much to get that over on that "Forum" (term used loosely as there is no real discussion going on over there)

LOL!! I wonder what they were trying to accomplish there?
"How dare he say that on that other forum? I know! I'll take away his posting rights on OUR forum! That'll show him who's the real boss!!"

It's truly pathetic. Sometimes I regret sending a single penny their way. If any ED mods are reading this my DCS forum user name is 'Hughie' in case you want to ban me too,like I could care less

Looks like I apparently said something to upset the authorities over at ED. Did they even say what the issue was, in accordance with their forum guidelines? When a warning is given, a note (including a quote of offending post when necessary) from a moderator will be made via the warning system.

20 years or so in internet land. And never came across such a bat #%&*$# crazy forum that supports a product you buy with hard earned money. Also the only place I ever got banned from. Certainly not hard to do.
Or how to turn a paying fan into a pissed off never buy anything again from that out fit in about 1 second.

Pretty sure the message was 1.13 which is: Users using other public forums to spread damaging and false information regarding DCS and Eagle Dynamics will forfeit thier posting rights here.Again...no biggie really. I was more interested in the change of vocabulary to "posting rights revoked". I guess it sounds less harsh then "banned".

I asked because the whole point of the guidance was to prevent the petty tyranny we're apparently seeing. When somebody bans you without telling you why, it's as if they have something to hide.

It's like 'Hotel California' all over again : you can check-in anytime you like but you can never leave. Those Eagles sure can be dynamic...
