football_fan 42 Posted December 28, 2005 I had a feeling that it had something to do with the domain, as mentioned by GR. Anyway, I am glad that it is back up. Maybe it would be a good to have some kind of backup of the forum materials and a backup domain ready in case we need it in the future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tuber Mirum 125 Posted December 28, 2005 Thank goodness.I thought I had been banned to begin with..... In fact this whole episode was really just a ruse to make Windsor think he had been banned (Wish I'd thought of that excuse earlier) Must confess the thought occurred to me too. If we´d been clever we could have kept up the pretence as well. But that would have been horribly mean considering the effort Mr. Windsor went to to keep the club on its feet during the downtime. Big round of applaus for Windsor folks! (Do we have a clapping smiley yet?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nope because even though it technically lapsed its reserved for 30 days or something before it can be nicked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Banshees Scream 110 Posted December 28, 2005 Big round of applaus for Windsor folks! Those old - time women are clapping quite rapidly! I don't know if Windsor would get such an applause I thought they may be clapping in honor of me? And by the way Boudicca - Those ancient ladies make the hair on my neck stick up.

Windsor 2,235 Posted December 28, 2005 Big round of applaus for Windsor folks! Why thank you, thank you very much. I'm surprised Banshees didn't think of it first, but on a much grander scale ofcourse.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banshees Scream 110 Posted December 28, 2005 I thought my ISP had been banned... Must try harder in the New Year Harvester it would be a loss to see you banned.. I think you have a great name "Harvester Of Souls" and your personal picture sure defines that. I would think it's very difficult to be banned from this websight. I know Tempus Fugit was suspended for a time period of around 10 days for saying a sarcastic remark towards the moderators but the real cause of his suspension was most likely the obsessive posting which really started to piss everybody off. Saying remarks to moderators usually wouldn't get you there because i've even had feuds with several of them. Although I did some - what dispose of one moderator.

Windsor 2,235 Posted December 28, 2005 How exactly does one get into a feud with a moderator? I know how it evolved with the one who is no more, but how with the rest? I've had my fair share of tellings off but thats about it. Members on the other hand.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
