Just wondering if it's anyone here...

Does anyone here post there? Just wondering, I was banned yesterday cause I had a differing view than the owners. Good site for info, bad site to disagree with people.

    Well, it's twofold. I was actually banned 2x.

    1. I posted a comment that was taken out of context and then one of the owners applied it to herself instead of towards the actual people I was talking to.
    There were some comments about how Toshiba Customer Service sucks and they had mentioned there might be legal action against a Certain Bulletin Board if they did not remove a post stating how to get around the Toshiba Warranty.
    People were blasting Toshiba cause they thought it applied to The SPot and I basically said, "Don't everyone get your Panties in a bunch over something you know nothing about."
    And since I used the Word Panties the Only Female in the thread took it personal, and banned me.
    Now, not sure about others but I use that saying ALOT whenever people, male or female, start getting worked up over nothing. She didnt see it that way, but saw it as me bashing women and banned me.
    I talked with another of the owners and stated my side and he gave me the benefit of the doubt and reinstated me.

    Part 2.

    2. A person named Polkster posted that he was upset at One Call and the Service he had received. He went on to say that One Call and The SPot are in bed together and end up **** us over.
    Other people disagreed with him and praised OneCall, a few bashed him, including one of the Owners and then I posted.

    “Polkster is just looking to find the best deal he can for the item he wants.
    We all do it. I dont think there was any smear campaign on his part, just that he pointed out some bad experiences he had read about One call and a bad experience he had himself. There have been numerous threads praising OneCall and like any business you have bad experiences. No reason to look for an underlying theme. He had a bad experience, He posted about it, End of story.”

    One of the Owners thought it was another personal attack and banned me again. I guess she thought I was trying to put her down and The SPot down. This time I said the hell with it, not worth the effort and I can still get the info I want without posting.
    So now I just read the board and I am still banned and not gonna ask to unban me nor am I gonna create a new account. NO hard feelings, they did what they felt right at their Forum. While I might not agree with it, it's their site, they can do as they please.

    SO that is my banning story...Oscar Material? Or am I Movie of the Week? Or Afterschool Special?

    J-

    You're clearly a rable rousing houligan.
    And there's no place for you in a civilized forum.
    To think of it, a female in a home theater forum,
    and a owner no less. I guess it was bound to happen.
    I'm clearly an underachiever.
    As to your original questione,
    I am a polkster, but it wasn't me.
