Quoted from pauloz:This is simply not true either. One person has been banned over this and it was for making outlandish and untrue statement after he was asked to pull his head in. There have been no posts removed on AA at all.
If you are referring to me, I received a lifetime ban with no reason given. I was not contacted prior to being banned, nor do I actually know why I was banned.
I made a post on Pinside that indicated my thoughts on Aussie Arcade having commercial sponsors like Bumper. I said I thought it was a conflict of interest and may have been the reason the discussions on AA were stifled.
It is particularly ridiculous that they even bother with the $50 sponsorship fee when it has the potential to create this uncertainty.
Moderate, sure. But policing the internet forums and banning someone for a post they make on another forum..... that's something else.
