Well why haven't they just IP banned you?
Is it the RF moderators?

I'm not sure.

Yeah, it was robbiecfc who banned me.

What's he playing at.

Yeah, that'd probably be the best thing to do. The forum is pretty rubbish now, I only posted in the chat thread usually.

Was there a point in time when it wasn't rubbish?

Him & Marty are awful mods.

I was talking with Marty after I got banned and he was telling me how he was banned then EA made him a mod after he was unbanned

He has 8 dupes as well

I'm pretty sure he was one infraction away from being permabanned on his Sir Marty account.

My respect for Marty has tripled after learning this.

It wasn't bad last summer I suppose.

I like the Arsenal thread on EA.

I mean sure, there were some good discussions but there was still a lot of trolling and overall stupidity. Then you had very active posters such as RAWK that posted utter nonsense.

What is that supposed to mean? Master Malaguista has never had a duplicate account on any forum.

That symptom raises some good points

He's spot on about Thomas Vermaelen, that's for certain.

I don't think he's ever said anything even slightly negative about Arsenal. Even if it's justified. So blinkered.

He told me Messi was a winger.

According to Symptom I am Spanish and support Barcelona. Not bad.

His positive attitude that is displayed when he witnesses arsenals shortcomings is something I really admire.

He has some odd views that's for sure.

I have submitted my moderating council application form. They know what to do from here.

I was banned form there yesterday for making a Vermaelen thread.

Ahly, you are fairly smart politically. This is a quote from Abbie Hoffman:
"I don’t support any reforms… reforms seem to imply that the system itself is basically intact and basically sound uh I don’t believe in reform, I don’t believe in dissent, I believe in revolution. I believe that the system has gone too far, it’s abridged the constitutional rights that the people have to amend it through voting. "

The last part, "it's abridged the constitutional rights that the people have to amend it through voting"-is he essentially saying that the amendments have abridged the constitutional rights, or the people should vote to overhaul the government/constitution? The wording is doing my head in.

From what I understood, I think she is saying the government should be overhauled because the system has gone too far for the people to take the proper actions through voting. So she supports a revolution instead of reform.

I can relate to it with the Arab Spring. When the Arab dictators promised reforms, the people rejected them (although they were generally good reforms) because they believe the current government/system has gone too far. And those reforms won't really make a big impact in the long run. They are just things to satisfy the people in the short term while the big problem still remains.

Yep, that's what I thought. Thanks a lot.

Going along with your Arab Spring reference, it's a bit like the overhaul of the US government in the 1780s under the Articles of Confederation. Amendments were promised, but the people wanted a long term solution.

Brilliant headline from that story:

"This is your Captain freaking"

BalotelliWinks, I remember that kid.. magically appeared when the Berbatrolls were MIA.

I have more problems with the fact that Obama has authorized assassinations of American citizens and such.
