Melanie_ Posted January 24, 2006 Report Posted January 24, 2006 I just noticed that eureka's been banned. What happened? Something specific? Quote For to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others. Nelson Mandela
August1991 Posted January 24, 2006 Report Posted January 24, 2006 True. I enjoyed reading eureka's posts and thought they made a positive contribution to this forum. eureka had a good knowledge of Canadian political affairs and history. This forum benefits from a diversity of viewpoints and eureka was an important contributor in this regard. eureka was opiniated, and occasionally derogatory, but I saw nothing that would, IMV, merit banning. Greg, would you please provide a public explanation, or point us to any offending posts? Quote
newbie Posted January 24, 2006 Report Posted January 24, 2006 A little too left perhaps? Seems to me most of the bans are those on that side of the fence. Ooops, maybe I'm next. Quote

I don't know why...maybe it was that signature of his... Quote "Those who stand for nothing fall for anything." -Alexander Hamilton
sharkman Posted January 24, 2006 Report Posted January 24, 2006 Whatever eureka added to the discussions he took away with his bitterness against all things conservative and arrogence to those who drew his ire. A smart person though. Quote

PocketRocket Posted January 25, 2006 Report Posted January 25, 2006 Did a search on his posts, and between Dec 7 and Jan 15 there's nothing, and Jan 15 appears to be the last post. Perhaps the others were wiped out. I am curious too. Quote I need another coffee
Forum Admin Greg Posted January 25, 2006 Forum Admin Report Posted January 25, 2006 Eureka was removed because he/she failed to maintain a respectable level of discourse in these forums. It is as simple as that. I'll remind everyone that the removal of Eureka has nothing to do with ideology or partisanship. Eureka may have provided a "positive" contribution in the past, but as of late, he/she was more concerned with scoring cheap points then discussing the issues. Eureka was repeatedly warned, and he/she choose to ignore those warnings. Left, right, center, it does not matter what way you personally lean politically. If you fail to discuss the issues with respect for the issues, and other members, you will be removed from these forums. Quote Have any issues, problems using the forum?
