I thought you were going to tell me that Merritt had gone ape-shit on you
and IP blocked your entire area, the way he did West Texas last year ....

I personally feel that this message board, Jacurutu, is full of hateful folks who don't know
how to fully interact with people.

Jacurutu is a type of owl that lives in the northeastern Brazilian semi-desert area. That name has its origins in a old native language.

Byron is so silly that one day he is going to block the whole Ohio state: OH

He'll believe that OH stands for Orthodox Herbetarian!!

I just went to register on dumbnovels.com only to find that I've already been banned :? Only been a member here for three weeks, and though it's clear that I have nothing but contempt for Kevin, Brian et al, not sure that I've said or done too much here to warrant a pre-ban over there - oh well, only did it for the potential to have a laugh...

He prebanned your user name?! :lol:

Sorry, but the desperation, fear and loathing that expresses is just too funny.

Poor Byron ... he used to be a promising writer, before he had to babysit a joke of a board full-time. :laughing:

You just registered that about five days ago; it takes him that long or longer to approve things sometimes.

You should have gotten an automated email when you registered. He usually doesn't send a message when you're finally approved; you just have to keep trying to login until you get in. Or you see him delete the name from the list.

What kind of error message where you getting when you tried to log in?

(Realize that this is all academic now that you've identified the account as yours. :roll: )

The curious thing is I registered using a different name from this one, it was my email address that was banned - so the question is: Where the hell did they get my email address from? AFAIK it doesn't show on my profile here, so its all a bit strange :?

Im pretty sure that he is being fed a list of email addys from someone who spots possible trouble makers. Im guessing here. 2 of my email addys were banned, I finally got 1 of them through. At this point I dont even care enough to post. I was questioning how my emails were pre banned also.

What were the providers? Yahoo? Hotmail?

I think inhuien probably hit on the answer. Freak bans gmail here, after all.

While I wouldn't find it hard to believe that Byron or some troll like 'noldo watches for "trouble makers", they can't get email addresses that aren't publicly available. At least not from this board.

If you want to be paranoid, of course, you could always pick your least favorite admin or former admin from other boards and suspect them of passing such info along to ByrByr, to curry favor, but that doesn't explain people like Sev, who never belonged to Arrakeen or DoD, etc. ;)

I was pre-blocked, too, many moons ago (back in the days when people actually posted there and it looked like every fifth post might actually have something to say).

Near as I can tell, Byron and one or more of his spies are doing something. I was pre-blocked not long after posting a scathing review of Sandworms and signing up here. That can't be a coincidence.

He did me a favor, as it turns out. I have no interest in that wasteland, other than the funny snippets that others post here. I wouldn't register now if it came with a signing bonus.
