His website his rules. Not difficult to follow rules. The posters who got banned are like little children always having to push boundaries of what is acceptable til at last they have to be sent to bed early with no supper. Thing is, not all of the posters who got banned were "boundary pushers" and several of the posters who are still there on V2 are most definitely in that category and are notorious for their behavior. Some posters have suddenly been banned after asking questions on the ProBoard Support Forum. Rules are there to be followed but it helps to be informed what rule has been breeched before being banned out of hand with no recourse or communication with the banner possible. Banning for actual ToS violations is one thing .... banning "just because one can" and knowing that ProBoards will do nothing is another. I'll take your word for it, just that I have never come across anyone who admits that they SHOULD have been banned, everyone all say they were banned for no reason which seems rather odd to say the least.

I doubt it, the only thing i said was that i found it annoying that the IMBDv2 board was just shut down with no warning, and that i think a warning should be given, and that i would use this forum more than the IMDB2 forum. I would find it very strange if i was banned for that, no as far as i can tell i was banned for no reason. I don't think he put much thought into it. He just banned anyone he thought was trouble. If he wasn't sure about someone (couldn't remember), he just banned them to be safe. I don't think it's personal with everyone. He just doesn't want to have to actively moderate the place anymore. Then he should get the fuck out and get on with his life

I don't think it's personal with everyone. Not with "everyone" but it most certainly is "personal" with some who have been banned. To top it off, some of the posters who have been allowed to remain are there as a personal 'finger' being given to the bannees. At least one of them is too self absorbed to realize this obvious fact.

I’ve since changed my opinion. He’s lost it.

When it comes to Carter, the reasons were his prejudicial and butthurt ones. You don't get context do you?

He just wants posters that will kiss his ass and that is exactly what has been done. He has gone through and liked all their posts that got on their knees and given him a blowey. He wants to be revered as some sort of deity for saving the board. He forgets he is just an emperor with no clothes.

Then he should get the fuck out and get on with his life He's got some serious psychological issues and that he has openly exclaimed he didn't like those that put a shout out for it, means he's full of arrogance and ego over something he doesn't really want to do anymore. He's frickin' bonkers!

There are Carter's reasons and then there are tos breach. Carter over-stepped the tos to make it about what he wanted it to be about.
You are not genuine that's for sure. You can't even think for yourself. You need the tv to tell you what to think and feel.

Err, okay? Not sure what the "tv" (I don't even watch one apart from football FWIW) has to do with people getting kicked off another board though.
