Default why has the admin stopped me from using my PM'*

I guess our administrator feels I should not be able to respond to members who are Pming me trying to help answer my UIM questions, isn't this being slightly childish ?

He has a reason, rest assured. I can only imagine how many times he has given you guidance and warnings.

I haven't followed the UIM thread, but I'm just betting there are tons of answers already there.

I think that assumption is a little unfair.

really, well I guess if you disagree even without swearing or name calling you get your priveledges taken away, whatever..I told him others were PMing me saying how poorly he was handling this and talking to me, next thing he stops me from PMing, Unfair statement on my part,I think not

If you have questions that you absolutly cannot find the answers to, please ask in the proper forum with a new thread or in an existing active thread if your question directly pertains to the thread subject.

That'* what we are here for.

Swearing and name calling are the least of the administrators' (yes, plural possesive, there are three) concerns. Their job here (and the moderators') is to make sure furom policy and guidelines are followed.

cvc, your PM'* were revoked because of your accusations towards me and your need to constantly PM me after I requested you stop asking for techincal advice via PM'* and post them publicly for the good of all the members here.

Yet you admit in this topic that you're still trying to do just that.

POST YOUR QUESTIONS. There are 7000 members here and our Staff and Gearheads can't hold hands with special cases. You, like every other member here, are expected to post publicly. You are not special or any better than any other member here.

If you cause any further issues, you will no longer be a member of this Forum. You may not post in this topic again either.

Get your questions asked, and get to it. In the MECHANICAL section.

Sorry, I just skimmed this without reading.

I could care less whether other members may or may not think you were treated fairly. They aren't privy to the two-page discussion of frustration regarding you that exists in the Gearheads section of this Forum. If there are any members that sympathize with you, it'* because you haven't really been honest about the level of pestering and lack of being able to absorb what you read with our Gearheads. Try being honest with people next time, and the sympathy probably won't be there for you.

You told me nothing about other members PMing you whatsoever. You are lying out your god-given arse, and are hereby banned from this Forum. What a cheap childish stunt.

Every Moderator, Admin, and Gearhead has been copied on every PM you and I have exhchanged.

User banned. Any Moderators or Gearheads that have been following this saga in the private sections of the Forum are welcome to reassure the members of this Forum that this former member was treated MORE than fairly.
