V2 is up, but I've been banned, to get a new account...

[gardengirl1953]

I have to provide a credit card number that won't be charged, for five days... small print, then I will be charged 39.95 a month if I am allowed to stay.

I x'ed out and came over here.

Seriously? That is not a free forum.,

Yes, thank goodness I read the fine print.  I am funny about giving out credit card information, because often, automatic charges are hard to get stopped.  Plus, in my befuddled state, something just didn't seem quite right.  I can't believe Proboards is okay with this.

That is so weird and sounds wrong.

Have you considered asking ProBoards Support for clarification?

Or file a complaint with them?

I'm the Luddite, remember?  I figured somebody who knows more about the process will do that. I tagged everybody here.

Unfortunately, as it occurred to you, you have to report it.

support.proboards.com/

Select Support Board and basically start a thread there... you can copy and paste most of what you've written here on HUMAN VOICES as part of your thread.

PS - I think you'll have to join there just as you would for any other message board, but these are the guys with all the knowledge and power.

Okay, just for you, I will give it a try.  I wonder though if anyone else has tried to get back on but gotten the same response.

I just quick-scanned Monkey's board, no word about it there.

This whole odyssey has been one set of strange circumstances after another.

I look forward to the Netflix series based upon it.

Update, I did what you indicated, here is the copy/paste of what I said, title of thread not included.

and was presented with a form to fill out that asked for a credit card number (won't be charged) but read the fine print that said after 5 days, if I was still there, I would be charged $39.95 a month.

Is this a free forum or not?

Since April 1st, V2 has been deleted, has appealed for members to volunteer as Admin or moderator, then we were informed that the original Admin was coming back, forum to open on April 10th, now this. What is going on?

I started an account on HUMAN VOICES, a board that is sane but small. Why is V2 being such a mess? Is this not bad for your business?

Yeah, I read and liked your post.

Well done, I knew you could do it.
You're taking care of business.

What link? Where would that be?

Never mind, found it.  What a maroon...

[gardengirl1953]

I have been told by Scott to logout of anything Proboards, then try to log back in. if that doesn't work I should clear my browser of cookies. 

Edit: I am still here but found out how to change my password.

I see I got banned at v2. Apparently that fella has a grudge against politics posters.

He seems to have a grudge against most people.

[spitfire926f]

We're you able to get in without needing a credit card?

I see the politics board is read-only. Whatever, I wasn't going back with half the board banned anyway. I may venture onto the movie boards. The "New and Upcoming" is great for reviews and news. I count on Politicidal and Nora for their opinions. I might take mom to see John Wick IV today, right after we watch III, she hasn't seen it yet.

It was a good run on V2. I'm glad politics was able to land at Monkey's. Monkey being an OG poster from the the Mothership, it was probably where we all should have went to begin with. But I am very happy to be right here, right now.

Scott on Proboards support said Proboards doesn't have a form to fill out requesting that info but did tell me that I have been banned from that site. So here I stay.  

I've scanned Monkey's board, and I'm considering registering there, too, but I've got some personal shit going on right now, so that decision is going to have to wait.

I can't imagine why you're one one of the banned that just doesn't make sense! How ridiculous!

Oh, it doesn't surprise me.  Back before he did the original 'I'm leaving" drama, I posted on RFS to two other posters who were becoming frustrated interacting with him, and explained why I no longer interacted with him. Manipulative, tricky, etc. He had dug through pages of my posting history to point out something inconsistent he thought I had said, and I pointed that out.

So I assume that is where his dislike for me started.

I'm just staying here for a while. I hope a few more of the good posters come to visit now and again.
