Did it bother you that in that fiasco I was the master puppeteer and you were just a lowly sock?

No, I don't want you to leave crying again.
Wouldn't matter anyway, it's not a debate with you. It's a farce.
It's like playing tennis against a blind opponent and even when he fails to even hit the ball he stands up and yells, "I scored, you lose!"
I think I'll just wait for you sulk away again after having your arguments destroyed. Yeah, I didn't think you'd want a debate.

You're actually not banned. The forum has been suffering DDoS attacks and Cloudflare has been giving them issues as they try to rectify the situation. During this Cloudflare gave a bunch of false positives for duplicate IP addresses, so the massive sock-puppet wipe of a dozen people (including alpha male and Heywood) was rescinded and everyone has since been reinstated. This was all made perfectly clear in the Ban Log thread by none other than Kingschosen, one of the forum Admins, where he apologized for the mistake and the inconvenience.

Our new security software is making it difficult to discern IPs and whether or not they are shared. This is causing many users to show the same IPs as others.
To members that were affected, we are sorry. To my knowledge, all bans have been lifted that were due to this error.

Heywood came back and has already been whining incessantly about it. So you haven't been banned and your forum access has been reinstated, it'll be up to you however to fix your abysmal -28 Reputation; that's all on you. I wouldn't loose any sleep if you decided to never return, you are not missed. I just felt like the AF forum deserved a better explanation of what really happened.

Hrmm... Welcome back?
From what I've read this guy's just a less verbose discipulus.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Er, yes, I noted in this thread three days ago that the ban was lifted and it was all a big mistake.

OK, I just went over there and read the thread where he was threatening us before the technical glitch. I didn't know about it, but it's hilarious. Everyone is of course downplaying it, but you've got it right. Sorry, but due to your name I never paid attention to you over there.
I also noticed that they locked down the boxing ring match I was in.

I've been whining about the need at TTA for an anti-flaming rule to prevent assholes from going on flame sprees just because they get a little butt-hurt at some negative rep applied toward them.

Why you got such a hair up your ass for an anti-flaming rule at TTA? First, it ain't gonna happen. And second, but momma that's where the fun is.

Then maybe you should go out and buy some tucks medicated pads and a binkie, and hunker down under a bwankie with your bwible until you feel better.
