Is there a way to ban me from certain forums?

is there a way to ban me from certain forums so i can add the moderators of those forums to my ignore list.

i can't ignore them currently as they are listed as mods/admins.

I think you can't Ignore an admin in any case. The same probably goes for forum mods.

Are you talking about the main EN World mods/admins or those who moderate a hosted forum or somesuch?

Email or PM me if you'd rather not say in public, diaglo.

I've found if you simply ignore Crothian the messageboard is cut down to about half.

My loading times are insane!

Participants in the Pentagon simulations were sometimes of very high rank, including members of Congress and White House insiders as well as senior military officers. The identity of many of the participants remains secret even today. It is a tradition in US simulations (and those run by many other nations) that participants are guaranteed anonymity. The main reason for this is that occasionally they may take on a role or express an opinion that is at odds with their professional or public stance (for example portraying a fundamentalist terrorist or advocating hawkish military action), and thus could harm their reputation or career if their in-game persona became widely known.

...former US president Ronald Reagan was a keen visitor to simulations conducted in the 1980s, but as an observer only. An official explained: "No president should ever disclose his hand, not even in a war game". Para,6

I've noticed that I have "ban points" in my profile. Well, I'm sure we all do. And I can change them. You could just try setting to to 7 and see what happens.

I actually find myself in the same situation. There's a forum mod I want to ignore, but I'm not able to do so.

If there's any solution to this, I'd like to know about it.

Is there any way to find out if I'm being ignored by anyone? I'm curious who I may have managed to piss off enough to make their list. That would be interesting.

Hey, on a related note, does anyone remember Cthulhu's Librarian?

Does he post around here anymore?

Maybe admins can find out but nobody else. At best, you could start a thread and ask.

Theoretically not but practically I've seen somebody claim to have done it on one board with this software. Not sure if it was EN World.
