I cannot believe I managed to find this thread because I just got banned yesterday from HB. I couldn't believe how nasty the moderator got with me! I was really upset! I thought it was just me but when I stumbled onto this website and found others that thought that moderator was "out there," it made me feel so much better. He/she/it was SO rude and nasty and I even attempted to make nice and just got met with more rudeness & game playing. I can envision that moderator sitting at his/her computer, typing one of those stupid emails asking for information already given, just smiling away thinking about how much aggravation he's putting on somebody. It's really cruel because many people are suffering from chronic illnesses and certainly don't need somebody with a superiority complex making their life even more difficult.

Anyway -- just having this thread made me feel so much better. I'll introduce myself soon in the new members forum.

well howdy madalot. welcome to neurotalk.

i'm looking forward to getting to know you. i think you'll like it here. let me know if i can be of any help.

LOL, and probably lives in his mom's basement!

Well, Madalot, I'm glad you found this place, you'll like it here and the mods are great!

i swear it wasn't me who got madalot banned.

Well, in hindsight, I got myself banned by falling into the moderators trap. I let myself get irritated at his/her shenanigans and posted something I shouldn't have. It's still my fault and I take responsibility, but it's not like I didn't get a nice push from that person (and I use the term loosely because I'm not sure that moderator is actually a human being).

I just realized that this thread is on the CP board and I do not have CP. I was just so excited to find other people that had had a problem with HB that I had to post.

I have Muscular Dystrophy. I'm very happy to know you all though and hope you'll let me say hi once in a while even though my illness is different.

you can post wherever. we aren't super picky. i know we don't have a specific md forum, just the nm one. but maybe that will change in the future.

i should introduce myself. hehehe..i'm a mod here. and i promise to only entice you into fun shenanigans. ok..amn...don't go telling too many stories.

the social chat forum is a great place to get know more people.

Has anyone ever tried to get around the moderators and file a complaint about the way they were treated? I'm just curious.

Imagine that.....I too have been banned from the health boards. Something about my email address and then I was told my username was a product name. I work for Dremel (are we allowed to say that here?) and I used the name dremelite because that's what we call ourselves here. Dremel did in fact come out with something called The Dremelite so that was no longer acceptable. When I replied stating that I was unaware that I could not use a product name they said being unaware does not excuse you from breaking the rules you agreed to when you registered. I guess I was to suppose to grovel and beg forgiveness at that point. I told them I thought they were hostile and I would not require their help any longer as I was no longer interested in their message boards. BANNED!!!!!

LOL! Holy cow, another casualty of Barney Fife Syndrome! Well, Erisha, that just makes you even more special around here! So, welcome to NT where the mods are human too.


Oh, and thank you for making my Dremel, it is among my very favorite tools.

Barney Fife syndrome...funny. It's even funnier because it's so true. I know it's bad to wish ill will on others but it's so hard when it comes to the Mod of that board. Just nasty mean people. Dremel is a great little tool. I work in the rebate department for Bosch but I can help you with anything you need to know about Dremel and the accessories. Nice to be on a board with nice people.
