I just got kicked from ATS Chat for mentioning Shitaki mushrooms?

reply to post by abrowning


Lol, thanks.

Certainly not a troll, just a guy who wants back into ATS Chat.

Cheers

No, I didn't read the type of mushroom assumed "magical". Makes since why he got kicked out now; because of the spelling of the word.

I saw that

Was wondering why you left

reply to post by Ignorance_Defier


Ahhh. I was really hoping for a great troll post but oh well. I wouldn't be all that surprised if mushrooms was an insta ban .

OP it'll probably be resolved in short order.

Yes, at the most it will be a 24 hour ban.

I'm laughing quite a lot about this.

cheers
Shane

I've got access now - someone somewhere must be a good hearted person!

You in again Shane?

Well what if I was to say I orriginally came from a town called S#horpe....

That is Scun thorpe without the gap....

Bloody silly auto filter....

Korg.

They are mushrooms used Asian cooking...and it is spelt 'Shiitake'

um so maybe that wasn't the reason you got bumped out of there?

reply to post by shamus78


OMG you got banned? for talking about an Asian Mushroom?

Actually, it can be spelt both ways.

Lol, it's cool Thurisaz. laughing quite a lot I shall never mention mushrooms in any of their forms again.

Right I've been kicked and banned again.

Someone linked to a Facebook group that was allegedly being raided by 4Chan and I summarised the group in a short and simple overview indicating that: 6 gay guys who have allegedly committed suicide (independent of each other) due to bullying will be remembered by people who will wear purple shirts October 20th to make it all better. 6 guys from 4Chan have managed to swear three times on their page.

Now I'm kicked and banned again!!

Seriously I'm wanting a list, an actual mother freakin, Noam Chomski manipulating, double-think list of words that can't be used and I'm going to add to it too.

This is a step too far with control dudes. Seriously.

I'm guessing the word 'gay' is the considered 'profanity' in my previous sentence which not only labels a sexuality as profane but stops adult conversation about it as an actual relevant topic.

Also, prior to my ban I saw the word 'bastard' in chat.

So bastard is in but asshole and gay aren't.

Maybe a little too heterosexual bias going on here?

A list guys - show me a list of what makes you cry and I'll dodge those words whilst lambasting them with much more articulate subterfuge.

For many of us, ATS Chat is more then just a chat-room.

It is a place where we can get to know the other members here on ATS, and relate to then in a way that the forum threads do not allow.

Yes, at times we bicker, but at no point of my many (many) months of being a part of chat have I seen it escalate into fighting.

It is a place where can formulate threads (many of the best threads I have read here on ATS have germinated on ATS chat). It is a place where we can strip away the avatars and just be human. This is a vital place here on ATS, and one that needs a full-time Mod to be in charge. I mean you no disrespect, but ATS Chat seems to have been relegated into a less necessary part of ATS then the forums. This is not the case.

Many people who I would never have met on the forums have became friends through ATS Chat. This is where I communicate and in turn learn so much from other members.

It is a place where we can "Deny Ignorance" by talking things thru and by using our combined knowledge to make a positive contribution to ATS.

It is vital part of ATS. Please treat it as so.

Yours Respectfully,
Shane

spell it shi-taki.

might get by the auto censors.

I shall never mention any mushrooms, nor foodstuffs again in ATS chat.

I shall not even mention certain soft drinks.

Cheers
Shane

Your error in judgment was in not referring to them as 'doo-doo shrooms'.

'nough said.

reply to post by loam


Lol

Or Poo-shrooms.

I mean why? Why for the love of all that is holy?

While I abide to the Chat T&C's, getting banned for mentioning #aki mushrooms seems a bit silly. Yes, I understand the profanity filter, but this is one situation where it didn't work as well as it should. No profanity was uttered, just a request to find a nice way to cook #aki mushrooms.

Can a mod please fix this situation?

Cheers

edit on 8/10/10 by shamus78 because: spelling stuff

Please, keep in mind that while some mushrooms may be totally legal where you live, they may be totally illegal where I live. Have you tried to send a pm to the moderator who banned you?

Where are poo-shrooms illegal?
