My first banning! ::hugs it, pets it and calls it george::

I guess disagreeing with <lj user="pyratejenni"> over the WisCon situation was not allowed? (gee, maybe she should put "do not disagree with the community BNF or you will be banned" in the user info...)

Dude, you were banned from [info]unfunnybusiness? Seriously?

serious! I freely admit I posted R.M.'s name - I don't have an issue with her name being smeared over the Internet for what she did. Luthe posted back, asking me to delete a. because "they have standards" (*snerk*) and b. to avoid getting in trouble with ZR and Robin. Which, frankly, made sense to me, so I did as requested.

I went to post something on a different post today and BAM! I cannot comment on that LJ.

And heh, she banned me too. Though apparently it's temporary.

but.... all you did was ask questions...

and how do you know it's temporary? (as I still haven't heard anything from anyone on that comm)

She replied to my comment saying "Enjoy your week-long vacation." Which I assume means I will be unbanned after a week.

that was kinda MY reaction - you wanna ban me for disagreeing (since I *did* delete and repost as requested), that's your business, it's your community. an email telling me what the hell I supposedly did that's so terrible... THAT would have been appreciated.

eh. ::waves hand:: I'm not going to lose sleep over the idea that I've offended Pyratejenni!

Congrats! \o/

While it's entirely possible that you were banned for some ridiculous reason, can I still suggest sending a mail and asking what you were banned for and what sort of a ban it is?

I love your icon!

I could. and maybe I will, later. Right now, I don't care enough - and I'm pissed enough at the very slanted post that started it all that I don't wanna make nice. Maybe later.

Oh, I knew this was coming. I saw where you used the SA twit's name in one of the comments on the unfunnybusiness post. Of course, she's gonna ban you for that after she went to so much trouble to not link to anything that would show a much less slanted view of the entire thing that might risk the wanker's name being public knowledge.

hee!

I was requested by Luthe to delete because I used the twit's full name. And as I told Eso above, I agreed because my intention was NOT to get UFB in trouble with ZR and Robin. So I did as I was told, and I certainly wasn't the only one disagreeing with the OP. But *I* get banned? Go figure.

you don't see me disagreeing...

thing is? you wanna ban me? it's your community, I don't care. but I have NO CLUE what I did - like I say to C below, I certainly wasn't the only one disagreeing and/or calling 'grungewank'. Did she ban all of them? or am I a special case?

I didn't even use her name! I just linked to a post she didn't like.

I wonder if all the people who disagreed/posted the name/outright questioned PJ's motives/bias/etc. have gotten/will be banned as well. Because there were quite a few that I saw.

that would be VERY interesting to know, wouldn't it? or why exactly *I'm* the special case?

Oh, PJ for the complete fail, not that she had any win left to lose.

hee! I don't interact with her much; but I had issues with her handling of things on bad penny (not that I remember *what*, only that I *did*) but I never mentioned it to her... she's just out to get me because of the Evil Cabal. ::is sad:: (except where I'm not)

Hell, I've been defriended on Live Journal for agreeing with her, or something (there were confusing emails accusing me of things I don't remember doing even a little of) so I fully expect something bad to come of saying "It's good to be King."

Oh, well, at least I've never though it was an innocent bit of fannish high spirits to throw people to that shark pit at SA.
