Maybe it was your 'Mum' !!!! ..... surely she told you often enough, never to talk to strangers

.....

As a matter of interest, did they mention how long the ban stands? ...

Airway, why don't you try a PM to Hork - I can pass a message on if you prefer.

OK - there is a problem where some peeps look like they are banned. They are not, there is a software issue. Hork is getting admin to look at it.

You are not on your own Airway, there are other regulars getting the same message.

Well, I promise I have been a good little vegemite and haven't knowingly done any thing to be banned however after a short stay in Chat this evening I was turfed out telling me I was banned.

Unless my drunken feral alter ego has been running amok while I was in Whistler & Seattle I am not sure what the problem is.

Redds, see above - there is some sort of ISP problem which hork has tried to explain to those of us in there. No one is banned, they are trying to sort it.

Sorry folks, not sure what is going on. To my knowledge none of the above posters have been banned from Chatroom by the mods. Will look into it, hopefully sorted soon.
cheers

Phew. Saves me from searching through all my (recent) posts looking for the offensive term or whatever. I mean, how offensive is "snow", "Whistler", "Vancouver", "Seattle", "thumping bass line"?

Ahhh, was it "sim"?

Reddo, another alternative is that you left yourself logged on in Canada. I believe very odd things can happen when you do that. Can't they? Hmmmm?
