I could fix that. Crap weasel has a nice ring to it.

My guess is that someone read our forum, and saw that you guys were trolling there, and banned anyone whom they could identify as coming from here. BTW, did they IP ban you? If not, then you can register as a sock - of course, I would suggest something other than the last username that you picked. Something that gives you more cover for the undercover work.

It's an IP ban, but those are easy to get around.

Yea, IP, but I will let them know how I feel about that tomorrow.

I never posted over there, but imagine I'm banned for being a CF poster. I think I may have actually signed up for The Paceline back in '03 or '04.

This is getting weird...I mean, next you're going to have to name names to avoid being banned...

As long as we are naming names on the Paceline, Dr. Swing and Trek E are actually long term sleeper agents of mine.

That's the ultimate challenge--get them to ban a real member for being suspiciously pro-Astana.

Kennf - you made it out of the darkness. Peace be with you...

BTW - I think we should try to keep all this in the "Other Forum Follies" thread. Just my 3c. ATM its split between the two on the same subjects. Unless this is the Paceline thread and the DPF is the other one....
