Well, well - it would seem I touched a nerve. The "senior members" of this forum certainly are sensitive/defensive.
So quick to try to denounce the newcomer.

No you dumbass. It's because a thread asking this question is made every week by some new member who apparently has nothing original to talk about. After a couple dozen of these threads we start getting annoyed at reading the same # over and over.

I really only wanted to find out what kind of reaction I would get. And within seconds, my post was attacked. Thanks for making my case a little stronger !
Simple answer... you were banned once (either as a previous name which seems likely as your personality exhibits traits that encourage banning, or temporary as a mod sorted things out) and your browser cache is retaining a version of the "you can't post" warning.
Originally posted by jesterbr549 And, actually, I would like to know why twice now, when I have tried to reply to a thread, I have gotten the notice "your posting priveldges have been removed."
There is no evidence shown in this thread to prove otherwise.
Both times it was implied that I was paranoid.
2+2= your answer. This has just caused another warning... those little red cards in your profile. [quoteSo either A) The mod's are messing with people that they have a personal problem with or B) Someone has hacked into this board. See first answer. So far, given the behavior I've seen from you, I would guess more than one moderator has a problem with you. Might I suggest you lighten up and simply try to fit in by corresponding with other members in this community with polite decorum and productive thought-out posts? Sounds like a plan to me.
ust after Am-a-douche 'threatened' me with being banned.

Yes. Unfortunately. We tried to be nice. We tried to patiently explain things. But it's clear this member was nothing more than a combination of an attention whore and troublemaking troll. Given the massive site and activit level of ATS, we tend to have a shorter-than-average patience for such members. done.
