Sharpie Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 So after quite a few years as a Kickbacker I finally got banned. from a thread. Well it was worth it, my apologies to the people who had to do it I understand your reasons, but as I say I spoke from the heart to an individual who called me a name that I have not earned for doing something I repel against when I see it happen, but threats of violence are not allowed, although it was not a threat more a promise.

redjambo Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 (edited) I tried sending you a message, Bob, but it says that you can't receive them. So before this thread gets deleted, which it will, just a wee message to say that you shouldn't worry about being thread banned. I've been thread banned two or three times myself. You've always been a great contributor to this forum and hopefully you'll continue to do so for a good while to come.

SectionDJambo Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 (edited) Bob, I have to say that I enjoy your contributions to threads on here. I was born in the early 50s, which saved me from national service or wartime service. I greatly admire people who served during the various conflicts and skirmishes of the 40s onwards, who do not hold grudges against the people of the countries or areas involved, only the people responsible for the resulting suffering and ongoing instability and hate. We live in different times now, where people who have no idea what it’s like to be placed in those kind of circumstances, by national service, not by choice, give views that expose their lack of real life experience. My, German, mother met my father during his wartime service, and they settled in Edinburgh and Midlothian in the late 40s. She said that Britain was a wonderful place at that time, but over the years the discipline, mutual respect and responsibility of people just gradually deteriorated over the years. You are a reminder of the good that was prevalent during times that people knew what the alternatives to that decency, and open thought, were. Don’t give up on your keyboard.

Too many people on here throwing the racist tag at fellow posters, with no grounds whatsoever for it.

Not going to blame the moderators on here as ultimately they have a forum to run and generally do it excellently well. But I don't think they should be allowing posters to publicly accuse others of racism without merit. Fairly easy to do when you enjoy the anonymity of a username and keyboard but many posters on here know me personally. I wouldn't like the stigma attached to me. Not that anyone would take that serious but that isn't the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpie Posted June 10, 2020 Author Share Posted June 10, 2020 Thanks guys but I should have known better, I have two words I often condemn here on JKB one is liar because I see no need to lie on a forum. The other is hate. In this case I was called a liar and that stirred the old Bob. There is no need for assault and thats what I did, so mods no complaints from me keep up the good work.

I am not worried, I am a bit disappointed in a subject that I have participated in from day one is now denied to me. I asked a simple question about the dead man, as I had seen no information about him on the news programs. I pointed out that I simply wanted to know who he was as a man and not as a victim. That question and comment was highlighted by a poster who called me a liar, I take it suggesting something else. He did so while telling me a word they used to describe liars when he was at school, I made a rude suggestion. The person has about three hundred posts, he is either a young person or someone who has changed his name and knows me from the past whatever as a result of his comment and my response I am now denied the ability to discuss a matter that is being described as the largest of its kind in recent history and is being protested in almost every country in the world. I guess when it comes down to it OWMDM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean being targeted with a personal OFF TOPIC sneaky attack that is aimed at a angry reply, then that troll sneaks of to the Mods, grasses that person up, plays the victim and gets that person banned from the thread , all from a personal viewpoint. Has happened in my work were a small number of cliques do exactly the above. Could be for a number of reasons, personal grudges, maybe that person has owned them on other threads and they have built up personal grudges..??? After all we are all Jambos, well hopefully.

It was me who upset Bob. I thought he was digging for unsavoury info on the boy who was murdered by the police in America. There was a lot of that going on at the time on social media, and here, and still is. Bob, I apologise. I didn't know anything about you at the time and thought you were 'at it.' I acted like an arse towards you. I certainly never reported anything and I am banned from the thread too. I'm also happy to stick my apology up my arse sideways, if requested . 😉 Edited June 11, 2020 by Weakened Offender Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
