Others have been banned on there too, for statements made here or in other forums. I can confirm this as this is how I was banned. According to the ED forum rules, the rule about posts on non-ED forums (1.13) was removed. ah so if that is the case, than the original ban is null and void. If the original ban is null and void than my comments following the original ban in response to the original ban should see me reinstated to spit factual venom on the ED forums? I'll put in a support ticket and post the response here. It may help other banned members at ED if they wish to state their cases however....I am not holding my breath on the matter Let's see how this goes shall we So far it's looking good gents..... This live support thing is the best thing implemented since the memory leak......

From the maybe 2-3000 people that play this game (which is very very low number in case you are wondering) there are 5-10 old grannies that just stay here and bitter. every single friggin time I log in here... same babushkas... yada yada yada yada... most of them look like this:
*** You are ignoring this user *** Toggle the display of this post
Hmmm... so these users that you are "ignoring"... Are you really ignoring their posts, and therefor assuming that they are posting "bitter" "yada yada yada yada..." " every single friggin time", or are you actually reading all of their posts in spite of having them on ignore?

If you are let back in Winfield they will use another rule to give you the boot, again.
There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB. The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed. There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.

*** You are ignoring this user *** Toggle the display of this post Should be fairly easy for you to add the same babushkas on your ignore list then. So what exactly are you complaining about? Is the ignore feature broken? You do know you are free to skip over forum posts or entire threads if it offends you or annoys you. Nobody's forcing you to do anything. Hmmm... so these users that you are "ignoring"... Are you really ignoring their posts, and therefor assuming that they are posting "bitter" "yada yada yada yada..." "every single friggin time", or are you actually reading all of their posts in spite of having them on ignore? Whoops! Seems like you caught him red-handed there, CyBerkut! If he is indeed ignoring the same babushkas, for all he knows they've now turned a new leaf and are singing ED's praises. Somebody's painted themselves in an embarrassing corner with this one. According to the ED forum rules, the rule about posts on non-ED forums (1.13) was removed. Not before it has done a great deal of damage though. Have the banned users been re-instated? Have ED specified why they've stopped implementing 1.13? Simply removing it after years of it being active does not really "fix" anything nor does it invalidate the concerns of those who were hit with the ban hammer under 1.13. that is an interesting development - I wonder if the developer will do something to fix their relationship with me, I'll wait for them. I got £50 that says it won't happen within the next 5 years or until ED's management gets a serious shake-up. I hope you're not holding your breath on this one, Tom!

I am so out of the loop that if it weren't for you guys, I would not even know what is going on in DCS, so it is kind of a moot point any changes by now.

I never said anything about that. All I said was that the rule no longer existed, since Winfield spoke as if it was still in place. As for an explanation, ED rarely explains anything that they do, so this no different.

In fact, the dude that I was dealing with was rude when he read my side of the situation. Frankly, I could give AF if I ever get reinstated over there.

it is time for all of us to move on, I already did. Looks to be that way Tom. In fact, the dude that I was dealing with was rude when he read my side of the situation. Looks like we both got the same 'dude'...AKA Norm\SithSpin\FourLiner I like it how I need to apologise though to this this now 'paid employee of ED' over a forum ban but where is the apology from ED for such bugged out releases like 2.5, the 3rd party modules that are still half finished which ED endorsed. The list goes on and on. Have ED ever released a statement publicly announcing they are ready to apologise to the community? Anyone ever been contacted privately by any employee in a private e-mail apologizing for being so sh!t? well I won't be apologising any time soon as the original ban is Null and Void. proof again the ED have contradicted themselves on this matter once again. Being a paid employee of ED does not entitle one to have an apology for words said here at SimHQ over a rule that does not exist any more. It is quite unfortunate the this paid employee of ED who holds a personal grudge against me in the DCS forums, feels that he needs an apology from me for words said in a support ticket. I don't know what his alias is over there, heck it could be FiveLiner or SadSpawn for all I know,

I can see when someone quotes the ignored users posts.... then I can toggle to understand what they said in a longer exchange... Hence the underlined parts of my question, which you still have not actually answered. I understand that quoted material in a 3rd party's post circumvents the ignore filtering function... but for you to know that something is occurring " every single friggin time", you would need to be actually reading all of their posts in spite of having them on ignore. You are, of course, welcome to use the ignore function. I encourage people to use the ignore function to spare themselves grief, ( but then reading all of the ignored posts rather defeats the purpose... and announcing on the forums that you are ignoring people, especially if you really are not ignoring them in effect, just appears odd, and perhaps even "bitter".)

Not exactly shocked...when you make a request to be re-instated and make fun of the moderators name in your request...it's a no-brainer. I'm not sure if you were actually expecting them to take your request seriously given how you worded it.

This response from Norm proves that people in a position of power and control take their roles at ED just a tad too seriously. I have been called numerous words here at various times over the years, had my handle smeared. but I don't respond with the words to the effect of "I deserve an apology for what you said" If I was a moderator either here or over at ED (god help the communities), I would find some humorous way of responding to the member rather than pull the "apologise to me" card like in Norm's case.

According to the ED forum rules, the rule about posts on non-ED forums (1.13) was removed. Not before it has done a great deal of damage though. Have the banned users been re-instated? Have ED specified why they've stopped implementing 1.13? Simply removing it after years of it being active does not really "fix" anything nor does it invalidate the concerns of those who were hit with the ban hammer under 1.13. I never said anything about that. All I said was that the rule no longer existed, since Winfield spoke as if it was still in place. As for an explanation, ED rarely explains anything that they do, so this no different. 1.13 is still in effect, as you can see from the response herein I like the contradictory response but it proves that comments made on other forums away from DCS still results in the same outcome, even after 1.13 is removed or not. Holding a personal grudge against someone rather than looking over the facts put forth, To me proves 4 lines short of a NineLine is unfit to be a Community Manager. Sobek, I put your name forward for the next Community Manager vote 2 years ago, however that resulted in a permanent ban under the 1.13 ruling which currently still exists hence the following statement

If you are let back in Winfield they will use another rule to give you the boot, again. No doubt, however the next ban must be based on my merits from when the original ban is removed. Not on the extended bans that followed from the facts put forth that resulted from the original ban. Fact of the matter is 1.13 still exists in it's current form as is it did when the original ban was placed. cichlidfan, I have submitted enough factual information that 1.13 is still going strong. If 1.13 was removed, I would be posting here that I am currently not banned from the official ED forums. That has not happened nor do I see it happening.
