Hold on...
Flea got banned for obvious reasons, Ceri told him to chill out a few times with the spammy war topics and then he went and made two more knowing he'd get banned... a spit in the face of the mod, actually.
I always warn Mr. Flappypants to stop nonsense topics, I remember you got upset once at him being ''suddenly'' banned without an explanation once... but there was clearly two or three topics of his that I locked before that happened, I warned him.
I think Flux was banned... but we all know who he is anyway.
I agree Cortical should have been warned though. But fucking around with the website code to do things the board isn't supposed to do, to make topics people can't even get into, that's annoying. But still, I think Tune could have given some warning. But he coded this thing and I'm sure he doesn't want people fucking with it. He fixed though.
So who else got banned ''unfairly''?

i've seen warnings given, and lots of chances to people. some people just can't take being told NOT to do something and they quite naturally REBEL and get kicked.
i'm not sure i totally agree we should be privvy to reasons why people get banned, i think in SOME cases it's not something people WANT known......so i think it's up to the person to REVEAL or NOT when they return.
i mean......come on folks.....is ONE week really all that much?!?! if you can't find something ELSE to keep you busy for a week.......you may have a different kind of problem.
again until i pay the bills for this MB i feel like i'm not in ANY position to question the motives of the people that do. i have to think that they are fair and no favourtism is going on. if i thought it was really something SHADY or whatnot i'd definately SPEAK OUT.
i enjoy coming here, but like everyone else, i know CRAP TOPICS when i see them, and those who make them know too!
my .02 cents as always!

thanks nacho..... i think people need to step back and look at things objectively sometimes, it's not easy, but it's necessariy to see it from BOTH sides.
i find people being outraged that someone is banned and taking it personally a bit much.
if i were banned, i'm sure i'd have done something to deserve it.
people here, like EVERYWHERE do not like taking responsibility for their actions. sorry but i don't buy that here or anywhere.

and phob, could i please tell me one thing, i would really like to know: is this messageboard a 'describe what you think and what you are doing 24/7' or an 'Electronic Music Board' (like it was in the good old days) ?.
I think the mods are doing great.

i can't really take either side, but i'm definately not neutral on the subject.
There's a lot of people on the board, especially lately, who are complete cunts, and i'm pissed that some of them are still around. I also think there are some good people getting fucked by this (corticalstim is the only one i can think of at the moment).
The mods might be a little out of control, but it's directly connected to how WE'VE been acting lately.
This isn't some democratic congress and it's not some place for you to be a retard.
Xltronic is just a place for people to be. No ones forcing you here, it's a privelidge, not a right (to quote many people many times)

war sucks... BUT, Sadam needs to go, I agree with that... and, I'm afraid I don't really know of any other ways to remove him, I admit that... so, I don't really know what to do... war sucks, but something had to be done... I just question Bush's motives really... I mean, if Sadam wasn't in the middle east with all the oil, I doubt there would be all this fuss...

In my philosophy class this morning we were supposed to be reviewing for a test, but our professor had to ask about our views related to Socrates philosophy of being loyal to your land whether or not you think it's right, and everyone in the class ended up debating and shouting at each other for the duration of the class. I had to stay after to ask my questions on the test. Fuckers.

jay, who was Flux?
"spammy war topics" is a bad phrase. they were perfectly valid, interesting, and quite necessary topics. they were censored by ppl who aren't necessarily "pro-war" but at least people who have no interest in seeing the war contested to the degree that people like flea, Red, and others wanted to debate it on here.

i don't like the idea of "this is an idm board" music is what i care about most but sometimes i like talking about other things too. this sounds kind of shallow but hearing that autechre is very anti-war made me consider where i stand, and i'm sure fans of autechre have pertinent things to say as they have, and i feel i've neglected some stances i should consider simply because those matters rarely come up inside of my real-life social groups.
this has been one of the first messageboards i've actually been able to commit to, autechre.nu was such a great site and i love the interface of this board. it's likely that i'm missing the point of this thread but i'd just like to state that i enjoy the communion of idm/warp fans and i care deeply about what they have to say about everything, including music, war, underwater basketweaving, anything. i guess that is more directed at some of the people who replied and not really the moderators. this isn't complaining or anything, moreso compliment, this is a great board

I wish the regular messageboard posters would stop their fucking preaching. Fuck off with telling us all to shape up; that's the job of the mods and the webmasters. It's sickening having every 2nd post here some sycophantic call for responsibility and maturity.
btw, rebelling against restrictions isn't immaturity paula...to take it to its extreme (where every statement should be tested I believe), that's like saying any group of peoples who rebelled against their restrictions (eastern europeans for instance) were just immature. You may think that's not the same, but it's the same principle expanded to see how it stand ups. It doesn't.
