WiltonKnight: Then towards the end they did it for me and Echota had sole authority to tell me not to use the term "Sheeple" and FA'ed it every time and within weeks of that, banned.
Well, that's pretty interesting... and complete nonsense. Time to move along but I'd be interested to see if albaby1 picks up on this thread and provides some commentary. I trust his objectivity.
To recap...
As I recall, PA got ugly when a conservative created a dozen or more dopples and made a mess of the Best Of board... which led to lots of crazy back and forth accusations. He was perma-banned which led to other conservatives getting pretty belligerent and aggressive in their messages, accusing TMF of favoritism and accusing others of FAing their posts. TMF got fed up and decided to close all the non-investment boards, a plan already in the works, but did so faster than anyone expected.
I would suggest that 2828 got perma-banned because he deserved to be perma-banned. He was pretty belligerent and aggressive in his later messages. He lost his perspective and fine sense of humor.
Whether liberals were perma-banned or deserved to be perma-banned, I dunno. Perhaps you have some specific examples.
As for you being FAed, well, all I can say is I never FAed anyone on TMF. The more crazy or angry or delusional or incoherent the messaging, the more I wanted it to be right out there where people could see it.
If you got perma-banned for posting the same kind of messages over and over after being warned not to do so by TMF, kinda' sounds like you have only one person to blame.
