What things have gotten you banned in the past?

I was thinking about this and actually, only one thing I've ever done has gotten me banned.

complaining about the moderation. In particular un-even application of the rules.

I've been banned from about 20 forums or other Internet communities in my life and all of them for that single reason. I've even been sent to the "corner" in kindergarten, and detention, and to see the principal, all for the same reason, un-even application of the rules. I even managed to get banned. Twice actually. For doing the same, while I was a moderator (against the admins).

I don't think I've ever even come close to being banned for anything else.

If you take it one step further, my entire life, everything I've done, everything I've tried to do, or wanted to do, or have driven towards, has always been centred totally around fairness. It's really the only thing I've ever gotten "burned" for, online or offline, and the only thing I'm ever willing to get burned for.


It's both something I'd be willing to go to jail for, and to die for.

Insulting Michael Jackson at the time of his death, joking death threats, so called "spamming".

I assure you, it's the Aspergers, not the demand for fairness.

The only forum I've ever been banned from is Free Republic, so basically for being a liberal.

That's quite noble of you, Teddy. Certainly though, you're in the wrong party for "fairness".

I've never been banned on any forum other than this one, ironically Tongue

I've been forum whoring since some of you were in grade school and I've never been banned......no, wait, I think somebody invited me to Ziggy's (or some other douchebag...i get my douchebags confused sometimes) message board when he (or whoever) got banned here a few years back.  It was to be one of those message boards that was free from Nazi moderation.  I was banned day two.

So I've never been banned by a forum that lasted more than 2 weeks.

For making a negative comment about a Republican on RedState, for making a sexual comment (sorta, a parody of a thread that said the same thing) on another forum (though that was mainly because I wasn't popular there).

I was banned from the Baidu forums, probably because I commented too much about the Arab spring last year.

This is not a "demand for fairness":

Canadians can not view Hulu.

It's not the only website. There are a lot of websites that Americans can visit, that Canadians can not.

Perhaps other non-autistic canadians do not get offended, but I do. Every time I hear the word "Hulu" it gets translated in my head as "F*** you canadian, I am American, thats right you f***ing Canadian, I am American and I'm better than you cause I can watch this clip and you f***ing looser can't"

That insanely stupid beyond words post is the main reason I'm happy he's banned by the way.

I can see where he comes from. I guess you have to be Canadian to "get it"

It's funny that BRTD disliked Teddy for a post I could see BRTD making if he were Canadian.

No I would just use a proxy instead of engaging in meaningless whining.
