Neil, or magnum as you all know him, was not banned because of what he said - it was how he said it. Five personal insults too far and as a result he's gone.
I don't much care which organisation you lot slate, so long as its done reasonably. I can't stand Harwood, but that doesn't mean those who support him are wrong (some are, but for other reasons - Kendall / Burgess, I'm looking at you). You're all free to discuss it as you please.
Magnum is a good example of this. He stepped out of line at the start, got warned, and is now free to say pretty much whatever he wants.
And a top tip, if you really must insult people, don't choose the guy who pays the bills.

I have never insulted anyone on this site, however yesterday you called me a penis and a prized prick?? Why is that allowed then!??? To me it seems that if anyone has an opinion different to yours you don't like it and insult them and or ban them??? Why was the nugget banned yesterday??

It really is disgusting what I have been called by admins and moderators on this site, but as it states at the top, someone else dishes some out and they get banned !!!
If it is required that people should always agree with the admin, moderators, ipa, morray etc etc then it should be in the site rules !!

Why was the nugget banned yesterday?? No, you've not been banned (have you) yet our opinions differ. Mainly because you don't quite go the lengths that magnum does, but I can assure you, another inch over that line and you'll be following him. Magnums last post was offensive to the guy who pays for the site. Magnum has been warned in the past and chose to ignore them. And as Rich has stated, I meant Paul not Neil. You're Neil, you weren't banned. Tell your Dad to stop logging on and trying to join in though.

It's all in the public domain, you only need to do a search. They've had their names made public by others (lancashireoatcake in these cases) a few months ago.

I suggest you tell me why I am even close to the line because as far as I am concerned I haven't said anything out of line other than having a difference of opinion?! Also you still haven't answered my question on why it is ok for you to dish out personal insults

If you guys are this concerned regarding people getting banned for no good reason (as you seem to think), then I hope you are as vocal towards the EPA hierarchy as well....

At times the EPA committee are complete and utter twats, but I'm not aware of anyone being banned by the EPA simply for disagreeing with the committee's views. | I hate being bipolar, it's brilliant. |

Again, no you don't get banned for disagreeing with the moderators. But it's never been an open forum - there have always been rules that you need to adhere to.
