I haven't been able to log in from my comp, am I banned and if so why?......now keep in mind that I paid 400-500$ for advertising on this site. Also I never was warned about any part of my conduct so if you have banned me I expect a refund.

WALTER · 03-19-05, 02:16 AM

my comp says that the admin has banned my IP please explain why?

DragnDrop · 03-19-05, 08:35 AM

You personally couldn' t have been banned since you're posting under your name. I'll see what's up with the IP ban though. Just hang on, we'll get back to you.

Walter....I believe that your reset, everything should be back to normal now. Your IP is shared with quite a few, this happens with some service providers in a given geograhic area.

PYTHONS N BOAS · 03-19-05, 09:44 AM

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I have absolutely nothing intelligent to say...not now...nor have i ever

WALTER · 03-19-05, 09:49 AM

Dragon Drop I had some on else start this thread for me. This is WALTER now and it seems that what ever the problem was is fixed now.

Looks like someone changed what pythons n boas had to say, wonder what he said? Censorship at it's best.

Ok now everyone in Walter's geographic area please post and let us know if this has happened to you..........you know, to make sure everyone is back and able to post again since I'm sure Walter couldn't have been the only casualty of this problem.

I am reposting this from another thread as it relates to this thread as well.

Quote:
Does being a member of an internet forum give you the right to demand he spill all his personal private matters to you?

If he is a finacial sponsor with his product advertised on the site then the answer is unequivocally yes, it does, as it pertains to this site. And apparently it matters to a number of other members who do not wish to be associated with Flukers. In fact they could likely sue about the lack of disclosure if they financial restitution isn't made and their adds removed when requested. Like the SCALES Zoo add, which remains on the front page after it was requested to be removed because he did not want his product associated with Flukers, and might have contractual obligations to Midwest, which this site's lack of openness may jeopardise.

It does make it his right!

Edit: there is contractual law and the rights of the paid advertisers which were ignored when Jeff sold the site, there is no denying that. If someone was so inclined this site could be locked up as evidence and shut down over that.

WALTER · 03-19-05, 01:35 PM

No they did not send the money back.

Son of Creature · 03-19-05, 01:52 PM

Good I reposted my comment on this thread as it was deleted elsewhere as "being of topic"

Has anyone contacted you yet walter one way or another?

WALTER · 03-19-05, 02:11 PM

Nothing at all, I will be making a post later to say my piece. Anyone that has ever read a "letter" from me knows what will be coming.

Ryan23 · 03-19-05, 02:13 PM

Let's hope that it won't be deleted like many of the recent posts were. I don't feel as though any of us have been unreasonable in wanting explanations for what has gone on here.

selacs · 03-19-05, 02:19 PM

Beware of the "letter"

I agree, what has happened recently can't just be swept under the rug, people need answers, especially when money is involved.
