Seems I got myself banned

On another forum I got a warning and was accused of making trouble.
3 times I tried to contact the mods to explain that in fact I had misunderstood, they would not engage with me and so I made a public post

It purely explained my mistake and that they were wrong in their assumption and if my post got me banned so be it but at least they would know the truth.

The post was duly removed, I got a message to say post had been read. Although I can log into the forum I cannot post.... so as far as I'm concerned I'm a banned member

Sad people to hide from other forum users what they have done. Dictatorships are never good.

My wife often asked me why I bothered with that forum as there were times when I thought naughty word.

well done our mods, you are a cut above the rest, keep up the excellent work and running of the forum

when I compare other forums I belong to to this one, nothing except a motorbike forum I belong to comes close.

The attitude towards help here is second to none, the positive attitude is fantastic.
I am mildly amused at being banned and not being able to post has not been a loss to me, here it would be devastating.
It is a shame that even being told the truth they have decided to take the action they have, seems to say more about them then it does about me.

Just demonstrates the total lack of common sense in every walk of life these days!
