Default Banned from VC-R and WWW

I'm avoiding to tell you the reasons which I think are at the base of this decision, as I've always been respectful and thankful of the work the team is doing and it will never be my intention to hinder VC-R and WWW (hint); though surely I feel a lot of less respect towards the people behind it (double hint).

So to trace out their possible reason, I'd say that I've been nasty and aggressive towards a couple of users in a single post. I'm the bad guy, yes. Case closed.

The real reason of this post of mine is to point out why this is a very stupid thing.
It's stupid in a logical way,so there's no way to defend: the deletion of my account wasn't necessary because in that last message of mine I said it was my last message. I really don't want to be associated with your audience. It scares me, I am intelligent.
So, if you want to "give me a lesson" you could at least ban my IP adress, in that way I would miss the videos, reviews and news that I'm really happy to read.
Banning me you're just making me a favour cause I won't need anymore to keep myself from answering the unbeliavable amount of stupidity that is present in those comments.

Really, didn't you realize that also my activity in the forums is drastically diminished?
The reason is the same: there are too many idiots who can talk in the world and I don't want to listen what they have to rant about.

The only thing I want to say (remember that I said I was avoiding to tell you things for the good of the sites?) is probably the lesser of the real problems about the staff's attitude, is that I didn't receive any e-mail informing me about the ban.

Most likely this thread will get closed pretty soon, no problem, it's not a discussion, and most important I don't care of the opinion of anyone about this.

You got banned from the sites but not the forum?

There are other intelligent people here. A few of them, anyway.

Yeah, I've noticed that most of the annoying people from the main site don't bother coming to the forums.

You know what, you've basically said what I've been wanting to say, so I thank you. I got banned before for a silly reasons.

About - ' Really, didn't you realize that also my activity in the forums is drastically diminished? ' - No I didn't. But thats because I myself have not been active on this forum for past few days. But still, this comment comes across as very stuck up, you say it like this forum revolves around you.

You shouldn't rub in the fact that - 'Banning me you're just making me a favour' - because that just sounds like your really P--ssed off or perhaps in some kind of mood. But thats perhaps just the way I am interpreting it.

Also - 'there are too many idiots who can talk in the world and I don't want to listen what they have to rant about.' - This makes you sound again, stuck up, if you are talking about people on this forum then accept it. Your always going to get people on forum you don't like, I may be one of them but so what, this is ONLY a forum. But ignore half of the buffoons and don't bother making a comment back, it's just not worth the time.

There was a period when people often asked things to me believeing I was a moderator, because I was always ready to give help and trying to be a reliable reference inside the boards. I'm not talking of the past days, and I was refererring to the staff, who know me since the beginning, not the other users.

For the other things you say, yes I was wanting to express general disappointment.
I already use the forums for the only things I care about, I think I'm still helpful and rant a lot less than I'd really feel to.
Personal interactions are a matter of one's own sensibility and experiences.

Because I can. My "registered user" status allows me to post messages, open new threads and write in the chatbox; all this to communicate with other users.

It seems like the standards are pretty tough here, but that's alright I spose. It keeps the community pretty close-knit and intelligent.

I said it before and I'll say this again, you have been banned for a reason and whining about it isn't showing any form of the intelligence you speak of. If you wanted to stick around then you should respected the site rules.

Any problems with it should be left to contacting administrators and not to tell us members.
