I still wonder why I got banned a few years ago?
No Mod owned up to it.
I took a guess that it was because FreeDumb and myself had a falling out after becoming good friends both on and off the Forum. A case of another female (Mod) chiming in on her behalf.
I hardly ever offer 'personal insults' unless its an obvious 'spammer' or 'troll' that turns up out of the blue just to bully someone.
I rarely use 'slang' against someone.
I do have the tendency to bowl Googly's and Wrong'uns, let alone Bouncers & Yorkers - just to rattle a discussion with another angle that is outside the box or circle. But that's me - I look at the subject from all four sides, before coming to a final decision or understanding.
...I do admit that I am the archetypal 'opposite' of It_Is_the_Light. I'm the Bad guy from the Dark Side that has faith in people that they deserve and can deal with the cold, scary, hard 'reality' and 'world' of ...the other side.
I am a racist. But I make sure I am so against 'every race' equally - just to put things into perspective.
It's a case of ...long ago, the lands were all 'one' Supercontinent called Pangaea. Then they 'separated' into many. Until we can accept the 'differences' - we will never see the 'one' again (to which the lands will eventually become one 'supercontinent' again).
Anyway - why was I banned?
Actually, don't bother - that's in the past now.
Good to be back.
