Banned User Hate Mail
From Ben ***** (******@Gmail.com)
RE: http://www.videosift.com/talk/Peter-Kay-Phoneix-Nights-2-Bloopers-1
You must feel very proud of yourself for getting my account banned for posting a video on the site."Self-Promotion", of what? A TV show clip i posted which i wanted to share with the videosift.com site. I hope you enjoyed your 0.01 ms of fame and that you were rewarded for your very hard earned effort. It must have taken a lot of your time to to this and i really appreciate you doing this.
so id like to thank you for your effort i shall return with a new a account very soon and i look forward to future bannings by you. I might be a CH like you and spend all my time banning videos for "Self-promotion" what ever that means. How you could possabily gain"Self-promotion" from that video clip is beyond me but you are a very wise person so im sure you knew what decision to make.
PS. Thanks for taking all the fun out of this site.
Regards

....he's obviously overwhelmed, with simple semantics...."Self" to him meaning "me"
hey fella/ine, word of advice regarding social decorum.....prostrate thyself upon the benevolence of the admins, for your enthusiasm to be a part of the sift guerilla-styley, would be easy enough to embarrass publicly..
"PS. Thanks for taking all the fun out of this site."
...and thank you, for keeping the fun alive!!!
I think he just broke the sarcasm detector!
LOL@"keeping the fun alive"
Well done, snipey.
I find it funny that they send this stuff to me, like it does anything more than give me something to laugh at and share with you guys!
Gee, he wants to come back for more punishment? Maybe an isp ban will be necessary.
Ya think we're creating a badge of honor though - "banned by VideoSift." 'Reminds me of the supposed banned ads we run across while sifting.
He is what we call a DB. I'll leave it to your imagination to figure out what the D and B stand for.
.
Actually there's one user with the name 'videosiftbannedme'
It amused me.
I dont understand this? Why was this person banned? and why Humiliate them even more in this thread in what looks like "school yard" naming calling.
Wouldnt a warning or something a little less severe not have been more fitting, If it was a mistake at least. How do you even know that this is the same person? Mistakes happen and you people take yourselves very seriously from what i see above.
I mean maybe this person didnt read the rules fully, or maybe they didnt understand them. I just think a warning would have been much better.
Im new on here does this happen often? Where are the rules on posting? Banning people for posting a video they may have put on another video website seems like a very severe punishment to me.
Im lost here, help me understand?

HAH! even spudbunny was speechless!!!

yeah well, lonebunman, even virtual communities have rules, and have fun as well, with folks who continually, can seem to read signs, but refuse to derive meaning from them....
What can I say but RTFM
Big bold red letters saying "Please do not submit self-promotion of any kind.
Read the posting guidelines before posting.
Violation of these guidelines will result in a permanent ban.
(If you uploaded the clip, you are not permitted to link it here. This is considered a self-link, and is a bannable offense)" Should be a tip off.
hence, the send-up. Cheers, mate(s) yer still welcome here.....
> like it does anything more than give me
> something to laugh at and share with you guys
The optimistic paranoid would consider that this guy could show up
on your doorstep five years later and explain how you ruined his life.
God, he keeps trying to make more accounts! When will he learn??
I LOVE ban mail. I want more!

Gold Star member karaidl has awarded thesnipe one published post for this quality Sift Talk contribution.
This is my last post and last attempt here i had hoped to be a regular video poster here but one mistake now and you keep banning my accounts. I am not a troll and my treatment is just disgraceful.
I cant be bothered to use a proxy server to connect as its not worth the effort. Funny thing is i liked this site but you wont give me a second chance and you wont give me a reason.
Luckily there are better sites out there than this which seems way to "Elitist" for the average Net user.
Before i leave please explain the reasons why my other 2 accounts were banned?

I did nothing wrong, i didnt break any rules on these accounts. Why do you keep banning me? What was the reason for banning my second and third account? At Least gimme a good reason.
[Took away this comment. I was getting him confused with the other guy (Entertainmoment) who's also been making several accounts lately]
Oh hon hon... I'm speaking to prisonpanda and all your alias. You say "keep banning my accounts" and I just have to laugh. Come on for one thing you have stop taking yourself so seriously. There is nothing to get offended over...at ALL You obviously have a problem with reading comprehension.
The rule and I mean rule as in ONE is... If YOU UPLOADED it, then you CAN NOT POST it. Simple, elegant...beautiful. If you do, then your account is canceled. Do it repeatedly? Then we'll administer the roasting you're receiving now.
Fair? Doesn't matter.. Papa Dag made it so and his faithful kiddies obey get it?
(It's fair though)
PrisonPanda, we explained to you in an email why your first account was terminated and that your other two would also be terminated because you created multiple accounts, which is another violation. However, we also mentioned clearly that if you would like to continue on as a guideline-abiding member of the site we'd gladly reactive either one of those two accounts for you. We welcome new members with open arms and hope you enjoy it here. The only caveat is that you're required to adhere to the site's guidelines; violation results in seemingly harsh responses because abuse has become too abundant and frequent to treat otherwise.

Lets get the facts straight here i posted ONE video that i had on Youtube, ONE video. My account was banned no warning (yes i know now i broke the rules) so i made a new account posted another video (NOT IN ANYWAY CONNECTED WITH ME A Bill O'Reilly video) and my account was banned again no warning nothing.
Id like to a member here and i not a troll, troublemaker etc i really like this site and please let me be apart of it. I will not break anymore rules and please dont ban me outright again unless i screw up again:( I get the feeling that it doesnt matter what video i posted ill get banned again anyway, Please give us a chance thats all im asking.
Thanks for listening and keep up the good work:)
So you're going to take it up with the administrators rather than whining here on sift Talk?
Oy, I'm gone for a week and people are getting banned left and right. Kudos for keeping the dickheads out of the sift.
