@northsouthdenimguy I find it funnier when it's a banned member that started a thread

but yes I have lol.

@Jord

‍ glad I’m not the only one

@northsouthdenimguy often the things they were banned for was cleaned up. Doesn’t make much sense to have the posts that pushed the buttons left for future discussion.

Although some have been banned for breaking the #1 cardinal rule: Don’t be an arsehole all of the time.

I was just mentioning on another forum the other day how much I appreciate this place because generally it’s positive and there’s not a lot of BS.

That said… I’m not gonna lie, part of me is still curious what exactly somebody had to say to get banned around here.

Then again… maybe I really don’t want to know.

I agree with @northsouthdenimguy this place is really positive in my view, you get the odd person in a new release thread just asking a bunch of questions and having a fit they don't like the answer, but apart from that...

On other forums I use there's people that get banned for scamming within their sales sections... That's probably the worst of it, even though they require tagged pictures with date+username to prevent it from happening, it still happens sadly.

@Jord quickest way to get banned here. FAFO in the marketplace and a scam = immediate removal.

Now that asparagus (the white one) became a controversial issue on the forum, I need to be more careful with my posts... well at least I can say I've never been an areshole (here). But I remember I did get a couple of admonishments with political comments...

Yeah it's really great that we have strict marketplace rules.

@chrisjohnnick
IH forum of course.
Reddit but it needs to be highly curated to your interests.
Fedora Lounge for their classifieds
Omega Forum for their classifieds as well vintage Omegas are a sickness

There is famous car tuning meetup in Austria at lake Woerthersee. This guy drove 12.000 km with his Volkswagen from China to get there:

Can anyone guess the city?

[don_pipone]

@Rustygate37 wrong continent. I must admit the colours and the sun make it look like it. It‘s Europe though.

@don_pipone dammit, I’ve been to Munich too. Just haven’t seen it from above ….. and it’s been about 8 years. God I loved my visits to Germany

[don_pipone]

@Rustygate37 seems like you are in need for another visit
