no worries but he does seem to make the odd comment in chat, etc. funny time to go missing being business end of the season. i could understand him having time off in the off season  ???

I have been banned for nearly a month now. I believe I was banned for posting the Jonathon Brown injury during the Swans v Freo game.

I have no intention of abusing the chat and it was a mistake.

I have emailed m0nty 3 times now with no response.

I would appreciate it if I could get reinstated.

My username is hdecure and I support Adelaide.

Thanks, Henry

good luck henry. monty doesnt seem to give a shower about the people that have made his site a success anymore

Cicjose

I understand where you guys are coming from but it must be getting towards two months since being banned which if you you look through the post may have been banned by mistake.

I'm just trying to get some sort of response from Monty. Even if I don't get reinstated myself I hope some of the innocent others that are banned do!!

Well you could as stated previously open a new account & watch what you do.

or, monty could start paying attention to his feedback section? Like, for the most part, people want to know what's going on- getting reinstated would be good (like my own situation), but they want to know whether it'll happen. It comes down to monty needing to help his site members.

Yeh I see youve been having trouble zarts, you are the artist formerly known as Ziplock eh?

I hate to say it and am ready for some abuse about this but it seems monty has plenty of time to sell advertising on his website but not as much time for his site members as he once did. its a real shame as i consider this the number one fantasy sports site by a mile atm. it would be a shame to see it lose its integrity.....

Chelskiman

I'm banned too, but I have no idea why as I only used the chat once to make a post and it was to do with the particular game I was watching. =/  I'm not stupid, and I never break the rules as I'm a pretty high profile mod on another site, so I hate it when people break the rules.

I think thats the frustrating thing Chelksiman. Most of the people taht are banned and can't get back on don't seem to have broken any rules. Im with you on not breaking the rules. I do swear in chat but thats just football, swearing is part of the frustration. I dont make personal attacks, spoil other games, etc

There is a bug some people experience where they are incorrectly told they are banned, often, I think, when they aren't logged in. Try closing your browser, logging in and trying again.


As for Monty, we Mods as just as in the dark as you guys at the moment. Forum Mods can't ban people from the forums and chat Mods can ban people, but I don't believe they can unban them. We are doing as much as we can to hold the fort within the power we have.

I'd recommend temporarily creating a new account to use until Monty gets in touch.

no worries. what is he busy with. Is FF not his FT gig?

To be honest, we don't really know.  :-\

In trhe dialogue I had with Monty when he was part of the Caoches interview, I can confirm without breaking any confidence that FF is indeed his full time gig.
