ADVrider not what it use to be

[dick]

I predict this will not end well

Hey, is this forum that maximumbikes place I keep hearing about?

I don't think so. There are members here that aren't banned on ADV

Not even close. Maximumbikes can be a lot of fun, without the drama.

Nonsense.

Back in the day before digital tuning, we'd fine tune the signal with the little ring around the channel changer dial. ADVRider has some excellent content you will not find anywhere else. You just have to filter out the noise.

Here is my Rx:
Pick and choose the ride reports.
Spend lots of time in the Regional Forums
Use the wrenching forums for informational purposes only
Ignore Jo Momma. It might be good for entertainment, but nothing "good" happens there.

Someone once said, "JoMomma is optional"


And, sorry UFO, I just watched the video: those weren't pasties, they were fake moustaches pasted above her bits

Someone once said, "JoMomma is optional"...

And it conversely serves as a convenient place for some to air grievances about MOA and MOA forums....

I have this one linked on my blog, I think it's the best damn ride report, ever.

I like you Gail.

[SNOONE]

I like you Gail.

Those eyes are haunting me!

Those eyes are haunting me!

Smoldering with subtle flame they wilt masses of men transfixed by their magnificent beauty.

Wow, sorry to drag up such an ancient thread....but it seems the act is still being followed. I'm actually...er was The Raven over there and was banned about two years ago for simply doing something stupid that I admit. No need to get into the details, but feel the permabanning is harsh. People change and rider communities are tight. I've tried to get in touch with mods over there to reconcider..but seems nothing helps and I can't even get a reply.
I have another username....but can't really get in contact with too many folks as it's hard to keep the profile incognito should the mods find out and ban that one again.

Just a shame. Kbasa...if your still around here....help would be appreciated.

Have to agree, pretty hard to get booted over there.

[akbeemer]

I know or know of a handful.

I've been on a bunch of forums and the only one I've ever been banned from was the BMWMOA one (not permanently, obviously).

I don't follow drama too closely, but didn't you (The Raven) most recently ask to be banned from advrider?

[adamppaul]

I never asked to be banned, about a year and a half or so I said I wish I could personally shut down my profile. Then decided against it due to the fact that I had a lot of contacts over there.
There was one guy of there that had been jonsing to get me banned since 2006, he set the bait, I jumped and got myself banned for good.
Worst part is, they have the authority to just do certain parts of the site...heck just ban me from where he lurks.
I have even emailed mods and rudely my emails are ignored. I did contribute a bunch to the old school section, had almost 5000 posts, used to give annually to the site, as well as used smugmug.
