Today I was banned after 12 years for posting the news and talking on City-Data Forum.
If you Are banned for life how did you make this thread?
Talking and posting updated news. I have over 23 million followers on City Data.com It's just a real shock to be banned for the first time. The truth is we as poster's have no rights when comes posting on these kind of websites. You can't file legal action against them for violate of freedom of speech on a public website.Hello @GaveMeJoy, I believe that Johnboy53 was banned from the City-Data Forum, not from here (though I know not why ).
If you feel comfortable telling us @Johnboy53, why did you get banned from there? (I'm a mod on a different forum and posts like the ones you make around here never get banned)
Thanks!

Never got no warning just locked out of site. They know people by there IP address. I had over 20,000 posts I made. I just burned out my welcome. I had a major moderator invite me to post on the site 12 years ago.I have been a moderator on a few sites and you never get banned simply for posting, you get banned for ignoring the rules and posting against them. I don't know the rules or that site, did you receive a warning first? Most sites will give 1 or 2 warnings first.
Your freedom of speech only goes as far as their rules, it isn't a public space it will have an owner who determined the rules for their site. If you violate them the staff or owner has every right to ban you. Most sites when you join will have some kind of agreement that you agree to.

i'm sorry John. What do you mean that you "burned out your welcome"?I just burned out my welcome.
Praying, John (((hug)))This might be a blessing to stop putting so much time posting on the internet. The State of Tennessee called and wants too help me find a job because of low vision I have with my eyes.
Spent to much time on these talk sites. Need to be more anti-talk.i'm sorry John. What do you mean that you "burned out your welcome"?
What you've been doing is in essence a ministry, isn't it? It has blessed me many times and i'm sure many many others.Spent to much time on these talk sites. Need to be more anti-talk.
Did they give a reason? Is it possible there was an error, whether human or technical? Can you get in touch with a mod and ask? Perhaps by creating a new account? It's odd to do such a thing without warning.Never got no warning just locked out of site
That’s quite vague. What kinds of things were you posting? Did they say why you were banned? Did you break any site rules? We’re you posting anything controversial?Talking and posting updated news.

Good news mainly and just like news here. I did post links too CF which they didn't like at one time. I think the site is losing member's because they are banning alot of people for everything. Never told me anything why I was banned. Just locked me out. The owner of site is very liberal and location is in ILL.That’s quite vague. What kinds of things were you posting?

Good news I've been contacted by the head Mod from City-Data Forum wanting me to come back. It was a mix up and they banned me by mistake he said. I still need not to spend so much time on any site posting so I joined Planet Fitness.
