Title: Can anyone tell why I have been banned from POA again?
Post by: Johnh on October 07, 2019, 04:20:27 PM
I have a couple of messages, but I can't read them because I am banned.

The message said "rules violation".  Like I said, I got a PM, but I can't log on to read it until my ban is lifted.

I think it may have had to do with a response to Steingar.  He said something about the reason manufacturing has left the US was because we weakened organized labor.  I said organized labor unions were the reason manufacturing left.

Check your email account attached to the forum.  You should have got an email with the body of the messages.

Nope.  At least not yet.  From all the other times I have been banned over there, I had to wait until the ban was lifted so I could read my private messages.

It could have been where the guy from Pilot Place was shilling his web site and I said people could always go to PilotSpin where you can say what ever the fuck you want to say without getting banned.

I guess I crossed their line a few times lately so I am not sure what it was that triggered them.

We are the Pirates of the Aviation World.  Not welcome at POA.  Nor would I want to be.

There is a setting where you can choose whether or not to receive emails from admin. You must have yours off.  Of course you’ll have to wait til the ban is lifted to change the setting but then in the future next time you’re banned you should get the email.

You say that as if you think there will be a next time.

Of course though, I am sure you are right!

If you said “fuck” on POA, that’s probably what did it.

Your post about pilotspin created a link.  “ You agree to not use the Service to submit or link to any Content which is defamatory, abusive, hateful, threatening, spam or spam-like, likely to offend...”


Someone is offended by pilotspin.

That can’t be the case. My POA sig line has a link to PilotSpin in it, and has for several years.

Maybe nobody noticed your sig

When they closed the Spin Zone message traffic went down by at least a third, possibly a half.  Of course they claimed victory.  Thy deleted my post about organized labor, but enough people quoted it that it lives on.  Hurray for the Steingar.  Surprised they didn't ban me, goodness knows they have before.  They banned me for three days, I stayed away for about a year.
