I have been banned... um ... multiple times.
But I have been banned from a lot of boards. I have been banned from Democratic Underground. Twice.
And I have earned all of them. Not proud of it. Just saying that I get really pissed sometimes.
To Jim's credit, he is an equal opportunity administrator. He banned one of his brothers once. Might have banned both of them.
I was just reading over many of my "greatest hits." Some of them are extremely filthy and nasty. Most are offered without context.
As I look over them, I think inwardly and reflect on my purpose and meaning.
Then I decide that...
Eh, you probably deserved it.
Gabby, I've been looking at your posts today, I think you came pretty close to a near apology. I think you should stop digging regarding all this brouhaha.
I for one, hope you stay. I wish the original post that started all this was indicative of the majority of your posts, it really was very good-whether or not you actually met with the men. The message, IMO was spot on.
I hope you will go forward, recognizing that even those you disagree with, strenuously even, may be hurt by things you say. A bit of thought would go a long way. You sometimes seem to just throw your manners to the side, that's not the way to influence others, a goal of any decent person in education.
With that chastisement, we all lose it from time-to-time; let's try not to have the losing it being the common and the decent being the rare occurrence.

Since I am disliked, and possibly, even hated by gabby here. I will now clear up any doubts about Gabby for all to either agree with, or disagree with.
IMO...Gabby is about as trustworthy with any sense of what is supposed to be an apology, as Obama, saying he Loves All Americans equally. And, to those who believe Obama. That's what you get with gabby.
And, I should remind all of you. Obama has been proven to be a Liar.
I love to make Liberals Cry, and Whine.
So, this is for them.
GOD BLESS AMERICA - IN GOD WE TRUST !
I got *unrightfully Banned ...."One" time But my spirit came back and haunted the bastards 4 times... cause... "It" could...and each time "let them know" by playing the song `below` until I got bored...then left them in peace.....*such is life...we all take our chances...make our choices and face the consequences......and finally move on...No big deal.
With great difficulty, Perianne ...
Same here. Not too much to say about my own booting-off experience .. I was on a British forum, one obviously governed by Leftie biases. I lasted all of six weeks before they decided they could take no more of me.
One of their Admin staff, though, followed me across to a Right-wing American forum (the one I was on before joining here). He kept his monicker of 'Marxist Nutter' (says it all). He, too, lasted about six weeks THERE.
He wasn't kicked off, though. He just gave up trying to 'educate' everybody. He's never returned, having skulked off to more familiar and safer territory instead.
It's That Bloody Foreigner Again !!!
I was also banned several times, then permanently from a liberally driven forum. And, I am actually thankful for the ban because...it helped me find DP.
Being called names, and putting up with perfect idiots has become rather normal to me. In fact. The more perfect strangers use such techniques...the better. It helps to identify the ignorance, stupidity, and whiners...almost instantly. But, not one of them has ever honestly proven their lies are factual. Telling lies, then more lies to hide their previous lies should be a training experience for everyone...except...THE LIARS.
I love to make Liberals Cry, and Whine.
So, this is for them.
GOD BLESS AMERICA - IN GOD WE TRUST !
I have only been banned once. I suspect because I figured out that when Jim says to back off, it's time to BACK OFF!!
