Come on OP what were the last few comments you posted, surely you must be able to narrow it down to what it might have been?

All of my last comments were not posted so i don't remember what i posted. But i think it was either using the N word on an article about racism or it was me insisting that transgender is a mental health problem, regarding all these Caitlyn Jenner articles.

I thought it was going well. Must have hit too many silent warnings over the years and they finally had enough

Firstly you should ask them explicitly what comment caused this - they need to be explicit IF they are effectively threatening you.

If they did contact your employer - this would be one hell of a legal/PR issue.

Did you comment that you didn't see how property prices were relevant to the story?

IT'S ALWAYS RELEVANT.

OP, how old are you and what's your gaff worth?

I don't know which comment it was and they won't tell me which one was the one that triggered the ban.

Hahahaha

I think the point regarding employers is for people accessing the site from their workplace.

So they hope that he is being sly about using the internet at work and effectively get him in trouble?

How is that even possible, I've had the miss fortune to read some of the drivel on there. They can't possibly have a standard.

I think you may have won in life!

well done OP!

I'm glad you've been banned. I hope you are from here too.

^^ If that's true, damn straight they were right too!

Posting N word was asking for trouble.

I agree that 'transgender' is a mental health issue though

In b4 ban

Really? That makes you glad? Think you need to work on getting a more exciting life, paha.

However... seriously? You can use the N word and it not be ban worthy. Just because you use it, doesn't mean you are a terrible person.

The latter opinion of his, is exactly that. An opinion. Again, does that make him a terrible person, or means he should be banned, just because he holds that view, and expresses it on a public forum? I am not clued up on the whole reasons behind gender misalignment or transgender or whatever it is called nowadays. But can it be categorically dismissed as a mental health issue?

Some people are so easily offended these days...

However, the worse people are those who think they should be offended, so act offended.

Transgender? Daily Mail? N word? Ban? Sounds like a story.

You really that stupid to post comments like that. I certainly hope they inform your company, banned from here also. You just can't go around saying things like that even if you think you are anonymous online. Shame on you Groan.

Well no, if he claims Transgender people are mentally ill he is making a scientific claim which can be disproved.

Saying Intel are better than AMD is an opinion, claiming something is a mental health issue when every mental health professional says it's not is just..well...rubbish.
