Have I been banned?

Whenever I try to log in, I get the following message:

Except in nicer format. Have I been banned? If so, why?

I just didn't get the email. I know why I'm banned and, yes, I was stupid, but I take punishment.

I'll be back, and sorry for abusing the forums.

Just be on your best behavior until you see how everyone else behaves and then you should have no problem fitting in. If you arent sure if you should post something then its probably best to hold off until you are more familiar with how things work around here.

OK, lets get this straight. You're banned so you can't actively use the site - then you post a thread saying that you're banned and can't actively use the site.

People respond to your post about being banned and not being able to use the site telling you that you're banned and can't actively use the site! Ermmmm??????...er????...erm??

???

Welcome to the site by the way!

Lighthouse...I think I just got what was going on...I think he might have been banned using the username "SkiHi"..and then signed up again as "SkiHiBanned" to find out why he got banned....I think thats what may have happened anyways!

Welcome and stick around

Just remember that this place is a huge tank filled with hungry sharks and one flounder...move too quickly in here and the feeding frenzy commences

Nevermind who the flounder is

Sorry. I didn't get an email, so I didn't know why/if I was banned. That's why I posted here. And, since I reailze that I need the punishment, becuase I did some stupid stuff, I'm only posting on this thread. I hadn't a clue I was banned, as this is why I'm posting here. Sorry.
