Pensions' Thread: Drawing Room

[Laddy Muck]

I usually derive a certain amount of enjoyment from the Drawing Room. Recently unfolding events in the Pensions' thread have, however, proved to be a matter for regret.

I understand that a forumite from that thread (Undisputedtruth) has now been banned. The thread contains more than one speculative reference to the fact that he may be a previously banned user (i.e. mikecg or Atila). My concern is that, if the ground for his banning is based on such conjecture, then - I fear - that a mistake (and therefore an injustice) might have occurred. I have met the (recently) banned forumite and also know of both mikecg and Atila; and UDT is neither of those previously banned posters.

I hope I am making sense, and that I haven't misunderstood the situation.

I thought the suspicion was that it might be Allfornun. Either way, I found him / her to be needlessly rude and aggressive, and suspect the ban (if they have been banned) is more to do with that.

Just seen the last bit of the thread, and seen MikeCG's name is indeed mentioned, my apologies.

Still not sure they are the same person. Either way, hey deserves to be banned for being really childish and unpleasant.

The sheer injustice of it makes me sick to my very core. How can this terrible wrong be righted?

One can only hope that good will prevail and that any wronged parties will be allowed access to the local free internet chat forum - so that they may continue to engage in more knockabout inconsequential banter - as is surely an integral part of their human rights.

If I wanted to question the Admin's decision about some perceived 'injustice', I think I'd be more inclined to send a private message than start a whole new thread about it.

Having read their sh1t stirring posts, I'd say they got banned for being UDT rather than being linked to anyone else.

There' no way he was Mike unless he's been back to school..... his grammar was ok

Standard MO in the Drawing Room as far as I can see

Lady Katharina is right, on hindsight, I should have aired my concerns via PM. I apologise for not thinking properly.

BTW, I'm not suggesting Admin are wrong to ban UDT (I'm sure Admin wouldn't impose a ban unless they felt they had good reason to do so), I am merely saying, that, if done on the ground of former banned poster - that they may have made a mistake. The 3 posters are 3 different people. I am 100% certain about that.

Hope you aren't offended Admin.
