I still don't understand how you get banned from any site? It's not like you are obnoxious or anything. You just talk cycling and its pretty well researched...

Who you kiddin'? I'm willing to bet he's a marked man on ALL KINDS of forums, far beyond just the cycling arena.

Yes, I agree, we all need a program guide. However (dear TFF ), we should stop posting them on the public waves. Send them around the PM circuit instead. You can copy up to 5 people on a PM at a time.

Cranky, you're with me on this one, right?

I mean, I don't want to tell y'all how to do your devious work or anything, but I'm just sayin' . . . you'd prob'ly get more mileage that way.

I'm already banned, so no reason to hide anything. Plus I never tried to hide it. That is what is strange. I was not rude or anything there, and I was open about who I was....I mean, I started this thread while I could still post....so maybe they didn't like my tone here???

I thought our posts were pretty mild. I suspect that skanky ho Arielana complained to the administrator. She was the one telling everyone to ignore us. I don't know what set her off. I think the very thought that there might be people on the Paceline who don't drink the Kool Aid was too much for her to take.

The way DP works sucks. It combines consecutive posts by the same poster into one post, and it only counts as a single post. Getting to Cat 1 will take years with that policy.

I am going to post mainly to refute Hombre and his ilk. I don't see a huge post count building up. Still, I think I have been robbed of thirty or so posts. I could be whatever level is above "Junior Mechanic" by now.

I would have left in disgust I think. Probably joined another forum where compulsive posters are more appreciated and fairly rewarded...

See these last two would have been only one...

This is a send-up of myself BTW. I come here for learning and community. The post count is a bit embarrassing. Its like someone who smokes a lot having someone else tallying their cigarettes/day.

I'd actually rather we had the DP policy, though it wouldn't change things much.

Not only does that suck, but so do a lot of the people who post there. Steve from Atl is a real.....hmm.......whats the word I am looking for?........

Icy hot asshole. I think he uses Ben Gay on it. He, Hombre, Ali, and oncearunner form the axis of doping apologism over there.
