This is none of my business but I really don't care. What the heck is going on? Why is Pulse Banned?

Apparently it's only for a few says, then if he wishes to return he may do so.

Oh the drama!

Hmmm, could it be a forum issue? I remember about 3 weeks ago I was apparently showing that I was banned... but I was able to login and use all the features of the forum.

I only found this out because some members here contacted me to ask how I got banned... I was bewildered so I immediately logged in and was able to post... even when I was showing up as banished to other users.

Maybe there's a autoban system for evil user IDs, such as mine ;).

Ironic user IDs can sometimes give the impression of a troll :)


Edit: Or after reading the post above... maybe it's not...

I don't know why he was banned, but when he comes back I think he owes the unit an apology.

As much as am upset about Pulse-8 being banned, as I benefited from some of his post quite a lot. I just recollect that I saw in the Forum, "Why did u choose ur username" that he mentioned that he was banned once before and just made this new name on the fly!

Does anyone kno why was he banned the first time around?

Here I was able to find his post I mentioned above!

I was banned after a fight with another since banned member and decided that I should just get over it and rejoined immediately.

I couldn't use my previous username so I had to come up with a new one on the spot ... I just didn't put much thought into it as I was a bit stressed at the time I guess.

I just love some of the usernames here and think they are such a clever play on words.

LOL... That guy later PM'ed me specificly to tell me why he was banned and why he apologized... The best part is that it had to do with one of the things I listed within that thread in post #19 on THIS page of the thread.

We will never publicly divulge why someone was banned out of respect for that person's privacy.

If they choose to inform people, it is their choice.
