Apparently I've been banned or prohibited by moderators from accessing another HHuntig forum. It was made clear to me before my abolishment that my thoughts and ideas weren't wanted as I didn't agree with a select vocal few and apparently the moderators.
I was not viulgar or obscene, a little sarcastic yes but clean.
My question is, has this ever happened to anyone else? What are your thoughts on the subject?

I've had worse things happen at better places.

I didn't get banned but quit visiting several years back. Don't miss any part of that site.

Believe it or not, yes. On two different sites. That particular site being one. I too was not vulgar, just not in line with ideals of the powers that be. I do get a little passionate, and I can be blunt, but I never thought I did anything to deserve that.

I thought maybe the "JBwhitewad" was the result of autocorrect.

Yes it was an autocorrect as I use my IPhone 99% of the time. i wasn't aware till I'd been "banned". Darn autocorrect. Also I never mention the forum is was bbanned from....after looking I appear to have been autocorrect e's again. "Smart" phone indeed. That should read "hunting" not HHuntibg. Seem to have fat fingered the shift key.

Sure way to get your voice heard. Start a talk forum and only let your views prevail. Ban everyone else and your computer will aid in your delusion thinking your views are poplar and accepted.

I was not viulgar or obscene, a little sarcastic yes but clean. My question is, has this ever happened to anyone else? What are your thoughts on the subject? Yes, I was banned from Kentucky Hunting in early December around the 9th. Just woke-up one morning, on that date, and found that I was banned from the forum which I really enjoyed. I did nothing wrong in breaking any rules or "Terms-of service"; the last post I made there was a post to a thread some other member started, and was photo of the largest Buck I've taken to date, stating the size of the buck such as weight, number of antler points, and other harvest information. I was so puzzled as to why this happened that I even called-up Uncle Lee's, the sponsor of the website, and talked to the Administrator of the forum. He just "chuckled" over the situation and was no help at all and couldn't give me a valid reason as why I was banned. I know that I received a few awful "P.Ms" telling me that I am not welcome in Kentucky or the forum. I reported these PMs to the moderators, and they were rude toward me also. Like your situation, I believe my banning was due to one or two moderators that simply didn't like me or were jealous of my knowledge on certain topics. Also, I believe the folks on Kentucky Hunting don't like Hoosiers especially those that move to Kentucky, which I find sad. Anyway, it's my policy that if I am not welcome anywhere I won't stay, as it makes me feel uncomfortable and I don't want to make enemies. Just don't have anyone to converse with on Kentucky Hunting Forum or offer information someone might find helpful.

We discussed my opinions about that site in a private message. In public I'll just say you are better off here.

Makes me appreciate this site; however critising another site here is frowned upon.

I was never even able to register on that site .... I guess they didnt like me before I even arrived. Not a big deal ... the topics and diversity there seem to be a little lacking.
I bet if a person looks deep enough they can figure out why they were not wanted.

I tried to joint that site also but never got a reply to my initial registration or any emails that I sent asking if there was a problem with my initial application/registration. Oh well......
