Not only have I been banned from the politcs lounge, but no admin has bothered to tell me why - presumably they're too ashamed. Was I banned because I was telling the truth about the war? The admins should really make clear that only certain opinions are allowed in the politics lounge.

you posted a picture inline that was quite graphic. i edited it out, asking you to post it as a link with a warning.

you then posted it again as an inline image.

case closed.

That's actually a lie. You didn't ask me 'to post it as a link with a warning'. You simply removed it and told me not to post such an image. If you have the technical means to look at the 'history' of a post you'll see I'm right. You deceit is disappointing, but unfortunately not surprising.

The picture, if anyone is interested, was of injuries received by an Iraqi - obviously this doesn't meet the narrow political agenda of certain admins.

Here's another picture:

He should have banned you for the propaganda alone.

BTW I think you assume too much as to what Demonhood's political agenda is.

If he even has one.

the amount of crybabies in the political lounge is just unreal. what kind of person hangs out on a Mac forum, just so they can whine about politics?

this is not your forum, you don't have rights here. it's MacNN's forum, so you follow their rules. is it really that hard to get into your head?

You're in the wrong here. I believe the text was: link removed. post a link with a warning if you're going to post such things

Pretty reasonable if you ask me. But you'll continue to think I did it for political reasons. This will be, of course, based on all the posts I've made about Iraq in there. Oh wait, I haven't made any. Strange how everyone claims I'm politically against them without knowing a single thing about what I believe.

Now you can play nice and listen to the advice of the admin/mod staff here, or you can spread lies and be banned again.
