Your posts were deleted because you didn't contribute much. I'm willing to give you a clean slate, but please don't post useless links anymore. Links are sometimes good, but not when when no one asks for them. Lurk around for a little bit, and do not spam your replies. Instead, only reply when you have something thoughtful to say.
Next time, please PM me with stuff like this.

Your posts have been pruned. No more discussion on the subject is needed. At least there are description of the links here, and this is good enough..we don't need 50 threads with all kinds of pointless links. There are directories that are there just for that. Also, there was absolutely no reason to dig up this thread and post something completely irrelevent.

The above user, The-Dude, has been a contributing member for some time now. He has added value to his posts, finding requested titles as well as answering peoples questions.
In your case, you just signed into an account, then starting overloading the board with repeated links, which most were not even in English - which the majority of users here are English-Language users, so those posts do not help out many. Which I am sure you are aware of this as well, since your posts are written in English.

With digging up this post to make a point, you've really not done much but shown your membership here is not to be a valued member but to be a thorn.

If you are unwilling to accept the rules, guidelines and suggestions given to you then this might not be the right site for you.

My role here as a moderator is to keep the site in order. I've suggested to you in previous postings to think before posting, and you did not, you posted links to sites you were told not to post.

Now you have dug up this thread to make a point which honestly is a bit irritating.

You questioning the owner's decision on locking your account and pruning threads shows your lack of willingness to become a respected member here.

A suggestion if you want to remain a member here is to sit back, read through past postings, and get a understanding of the board and the members here. Don't try to annoy the people here, it will not be tolerated.

Thank for your answer. Unfortunately I from her read only a few row namely yet untranslated, since I don't know much well English. Indeed never mind... At least you are from depression excerpt. :)

Never I am here nobody leave alone, unless his bad English. I've never nobody unconstrained read my messages Only after-butt do you according to of my opinion have on everybody's user other metre. Your pages like, but with forum is it worse. U sending legacy be truly a, unwillingly breached conditions. But no law and everything what I cite be only wrong " quotation " .

If is here somebody thorn hereof forums just so the who here booted censorship in a very extreme measurement, the who deprecating my messages to the forums and the who me abandon all that I upon this forum sent. Among others to that wasn't little me the thorn yet block logically and employs unreasonably case on brightly lay questions. Try me silence how lock shine, so privacy lock. Namely does not make nothing at variance with condition nor law. At least about it try.

Otherwise appreciate work who pursuance to your pages, appreciate rate your server and when professional quality of service. Unfortunately this is plaguy evenness Your ironic remark. Image your member be only registered logically but no comments nor messages to the forums. How you are single wrote, sit back, read last posting and get understanding deck and member here.

I want stay member, but below my last poop Qhard and I want back his proper messages Most of them was proper when perhaps on one in which occurred mistaken legacy.

Otherwise isn't well possible me prohibit admission to your forum, since is any time possible realize next registration. Namely at worst and with the aid of proxy server. Be only up to you how to problem build. I am problems does not make nor do never will not, walks me just about registration here and about possibility be your member. No now with new logically, but with it old, who you are me tactfully block.

Sorry, but I can not understand your posting. Though you are using the English language your sentence structure is not logical.

The owners have every right to enforce laws, change rules, edit posts and prohibit ANYTHING they wish. If a member posts something, the owners have the right to remove, edit or delete questionable messages. This board is not owned or run by the public. It is a privilege granted to the members to be allowed to post, but it is Not a right of a member to post.
If the admin's blocked your other user account, and you want it unblocked, then you could politely PM them, giving them a valid reason they should unblock it.

Your old messages will not be restored so stop asking.

IF you decide to threaten the operators of this board by saying you will using a proxy to gain access once again, then it is possible that the owners could contact your provider and express you're prohibited from this site due to your actions and that you're harassing the site.
Again, if you want to be a member here, you're definitely are not going about it the right way.

Remember being a member here is not a right or that you're allowed just because you want, it's a granted privilege.

Of course, if this is not what you trying to express, and I am reading what you wrote incorrectly then I apologize, but as I already stated, its extremely difficult to understand the context of your posting.

It may be too late in this case, but since you just upgraded to vBulletin:

When dealing with someone who won't modify his/her behavior, uses proxies, and creates multiple accounts to bypass banning...A vBulletin's admin option called "Tachy Goes to Coventry", can be very usefull.

Since the offender doesn't realize that the account is on everyone's "ignore list", he/she doesn't feel the need to take countermeasures.

If I'm revealing more than you want made public, please delete this post.

obviously just another troll hiding behind a ( do not know much english title ) one notices by reading the posts from q.hard that the wording is quite advanced for someone who knows very little english,i would of thought that using these type of words it would reflect someone who had spent much time around the english language and would therefore be able to string a sentence together so it was readable,personally i would just ban the member, as prevention is always better than a cure.

PM = Private Mesage. There is no reason to make this drama a public state of affairs. We need thoughtful replies and contributions in this forum. No replies that do not contribute to the topic at hand. You can keep reading around the forums and see how members present themselves and learn from that. The threats that you exhibited of using proxies though is not the right way of going about things.

Qhard.Qhard You are always welcomed at OldOS (http://www.oldos.org)

We got people from America, the Netherlands, U.K., and Canada.(Even some 2600.org members) Check out the OldOs streaming Radio, it plays at ceirtain times.

Or there is Computing.Net , they're helpful, kinda strict on rules.

and another thing, just using a anom proxy isn't all you need to do, most boards set COOKIES, and if you still have a "banned" cookie, it will ban the new IP.

Banning somone isn't the solution, getting along with everyone IS. :)

Evlhxrd00d- Peace, Love and Understanding. ;)
