Copped a 10 day on both  once for saying "useless banana" he he, who did you say it to? My guess it was a mod. I had to pretty much give the guy a handjob to get mine back. hope you have better luck mate

[Tracers]

oh and the word banana above was like the name Wayne Kerr.. if you get the drift

[NikonGuy]

lol .. I was talking to Fuze about someone else and we were both trying to come up with an anti salute if you know what I mean ..

My exact words were "<F> is for fail" like salute ya know.

I then got a warning and thought .. what the heck !!!

So I typed just FAIL into country channel to see if that was the bad word ..

then I got banned for typing it again I guess .. lol.

There are some seriously weird rules around

Contact HTC and discuss it. If what you say is true they will clear it up. The boards are not the place for this.

Seriously if a mod is gonna use his powers to mute people for ridiculous things like this then they do not deserve to be a mod at all ... thats just blatant miss use of the role as a moderator.

Keep going.... maybe you'll get a vacation from the boards too.

Shuffler the reason I posted it here is in the hope HTC will explain t to me ..

If I have done something wrong I will gladly wear it but I just don't get it .. not for a non vulgar word such as this ..

Maybe the auto censor mistook fail for that other not nice f word?

Really? that comment was an epic FAIL 

[NikonGuy]

lol well I tell you what .. if someone wants to ban from the boards over this .. then I will happily withdraw my subscription and use my $15 elsewhere

this is ridiculous

I think I understand why you were banned in game.

[NikonGuy]

I reckon you might be right Tracers .. the auto censor has most likely been programmed for any word starting with F that has 4 letters to try to capture all the creative ways of typing the F word ..

so enlighten us all Shuffler
