Or suspended here. Temporary Bans, Permanent Bans, whatever. Man up and say it here. Anywho, I've been suspended once here for posting an inappropriate image (NSFW but comical. I put spoiler tags saying NSFW and it was purely comical, but yet...) and I'm currently on a 3 month ban on Gearbox for accumulating too much infraction points. I got stupid and tried standing up for two other people who got banned. I "confronted a moderator in an open forum" which is against the rules and got slapped with a Disrespect infraction. (3 Points that never expire)

This is the only forum I have ever been on where I was punished.

And oh, have I been punished.

Not that I know of. Not very active on the other forums I've got an account on anyway, to be honest.
Got banned from here for a day though, as part of an April Fools joke, then I got a probation for calling someone a dick. I'mma fucking hardcore trouble maker, me(!)

I've been banned from two independent forums, one now defunct.

In the first instance, the head moderator (the guy who made the forum) had gone power-mad and made the place far too strict; I proposed a fair compromise that would stabilize the situation, so he banned me for a year with the promise to decrease it to a "mere" three months if I apologized (via envoy; I had contacts/supporters on another forum) for speaking out of place. I told him to shove it, and the reaction to my ban was... not popular for him. One month later, he got so fed up with "rebellion" that he deleted the entire forum.

The second time was from a "child" forum from the first one, this one created by the leader's right-hand moderator. I got sick of him and the types he supported, so I spammed the entire forum with NSFW imagery (against board rules). You know what the pathetic thing is? They didn't even react to my actions until I called them out on their failure to actually moderate.

Been banned from the CAD forums for entirely predictable reasons. I've never been modded here, although I did leave the forums for many months because I was getting incredibly sick of a lot of stuff on them, and ended up being sorely tempted to troll and flame out of frustration. Buuuuut I decided to just up and do something better with my e-life instead.

lol now I'm curious as to which bleach forum. It would be funny if all bleach forums were filled with asses or if it was the one I tried for like a week.

But besides that I have yet to be banned. Although there have been a couple of times after I posted where I thought to myself that I have a chance of getting banned but no luck yet. Probably will happen if I ever hit 1000 posts here.

I've never been in trouble on any forum I've been on, although I have annoyed one of the admins of one forum, but that was a political argument that we ust agreed to disagree on. There was no name calling or anything like that.

Oddly enough though, I'd say that 3/4 of the forums I've actually been a member of, I ended up holding some sort of position in. I've never had to punish anyone on those forums though, and none of my superiors thought that I did anything to warrant punishment. I don't go out of my way not to offend people, but I'm not really trying to either. In fact, with as many people as I've annoyed on here, I'm surprised that I haven't at least been warned. XD

I have never been banned but on the escapist I was put on probation because I supposedly posted too early on a zero punctuation video.

Is that why your balls hurt?

Hurhur, sorry I had to, that is a funny under the username thing-a-ma-jig and it fit perfectly. (this part was for those of you who missed the joke...)

Anyway, no, I have not been banned from anywhere.

I was suspended from various incarnations of the Black Library forum (Game's workshops' publishing arm) on two occasions. Once was due to a joke an author didn't get and took offence to, the other time was for pointing out that authors who rehash LotR IN SPACE really blatantly for no reason instead of looking into the actual existing backstory shouldn't probably be writing for BL.

Also, put on probation here for saying that "gay" doesn't always mean "homosexual" anymore, it tends to mean anything that a certain type of mainstream society holds in contempt for some reason, such as grown men watching My Little Pony.

I got banned from 4chan once because moot was bored. Banned for a month, and under the heading telling me why I got banned, moot simply said "I was bored. sorry."

I have not been banned, but my anyone on my schools network is unable to post because of spammers and idiots. I am unfortunately not allowed to post from there, as the Escapist "banned" it. I don't disagree. Wikipedia did the same.

I have never ever been banned from or threatened to be banned on any forum or anything ever.

I'm not a rabble-rouser.
