Rally Discussion and Bar Talk Thread

[PLuto]

Ok, this chat is now out of topic as Mirek was unbanned by Mark. Despite it I still dont agree with the explanation and style of this banning.

I think that should be all for this conversation and I will move last few posts about banning to different thread.

thanks Pluto

the moderating team of rally forum are just incompetent... when i was banned (and there were far better reasons than mirek) i also did not get any information why... useless... LOL

So, not banned for particular reason, but one gloomy day somebody with power decided to get rid of him? Pathetic.
"Too much compalins from users" is pure demagogy. If somebody is really annoying for many people, there should be voting in a poll to do/don't ban him.
Personally I do not want anybody here get the BANana, as the ignore function is flawless.

Mirek banned?

He´s one out of few that has relevant information and also get theoretical answers when such topics are up.

Mirek is one of the guys on the forum whom you´d be able to have a serious discussion with.

[Mirek]

Thank You guys for Your support but please take it as closed thing. No need to discuss it more.

you naughty boy Mirek ... welcome to the club... LOOOOOOL

They should get that mod on off duty, Mirek is probably one of the most beloved forummember on the rallying section

It's better now if I don't speak out loud what I'm really thinking....

+1
i think that mod banned him he has to explain the reason.
If he dont do it i dlike Mark to explain the reason.

As a recipient of a sudden no explanation no apology "Lifetime Insta-ban"----thank you Pino-----I agree.

And a couple of years later, suddenly, no explanation of apology---un-banned.

Some you old hands may have noticed a drastically lowered level of participation...Never know what might trigger what---and POOF! Gone.


Something is severely wrong how mods seemingy can do no wrong--and no answers ever given.
Something is rotten in the state of Danmark ---WS Shakespeare...

Just to reply to Janvan - I was made a mod for the purposes of administering the WRC Pickem, but I have on occasion had cause to request behaviour change from certain members. When I have made a mistake (in my own behaviour) I have admitted it and made a public apology (unless you are the Pope no one is perfect!). I would count it a major failing to end up banning someone and certainly can't imagine why certain actions were taken. On the other hand there are certain members who enjoy dishing it out but don't like it back, they should grow up. The major problem with any forum exchange, particularly if both participants are using english as a non-native speaker, is you cannot absolutely take the tone and nuance of what is being written and some people mis-interpret what they read on the screen. Clearly Mark (who is very balanced in his view of bannings and complaints) realised an error of judgement had arisen and corrected it. Nothing is wrong in Denmark, stop picking on the Danes!
