Metropol

To explain very briefly what happened:

I did use a naughty word. I have absolutely no regrets about that whatsoever, I maintain that he is a cunt for bringing up something about chest hair on female newsreaders.

I went back a couple of hours later - like a killer returning to a crime scene, you might say - and saw his slightly baffling reply. I then posted the full naughty word for all to see.

After my post, I noticed I had a PM, which essentially said 'do it again and you'll be banned'. Given that I had just done it again before I read this, I thought perhaps I should go and delete the post. Instead, I decided to 'Report this Post' on the grounds that somebody else would anyway, and the moderating policy was obviously a load of tosh.

I then requested that Mr Ison ban me before Charlie inevitably did, in order that Master Wells would not have the satisfaction of doing so.

And there we have it.

I'm quite amused that using swear words constitutes a ban, whereas posting about chest hair on women casts you as the victim in the eyes of the moderators.

Right, I am off to rinse my mouth out with soap and water.

Well, you don't even know if Charlie would have banned you!

I'm sure he would have had the foresight to see that banning someone who's been there from the start would cause a lot of fuss. Even if you are an habitual attention-seeking whore.

So, if Ison banned you - then surely he can 'unban' you?

Either way, TVF still needs a desperate overhaul.

It might've made more sense to wait for Charlie to ban me, but given that he sent me a PM saying 'do it again and you'll be banned', I assumed it was inevitable.

And Ison's editing of my post was too comic for Charlie to have come up with.

I would strongly take issue with that.

It is not habitual, it's just this once.

Whore?... well, I never kiss and tell, Jamez, you'll be glad to know.

If you want to be banned on TVF, simply critisise Asa and his ridiculous levels of bias, political correctness and his inability to allow freedom of expression.

Perhaps Mr Hicks would be better off moving to China, where he can live in a propaganda controlled-environment free from expression and the promotion of independent thought and protestation.

I've seen your Gaydar profile, dear.

If that's not attention-seeking, then my name is Nicholas Tobias Cherry-Tree Harvey.

Jamez wrote:So what should Asa's main priorities be right now, if he wants to salvage his dying site?

Get rid of the trolls
Get rid of the mocks and requests fora
Demote Charlie Wells as a matter of urgency
Re-design the site so it looks contemporary, modern and professional. Not a clone of the Newsround website.

the simple answer would be for the creation of a tv forum here on metropol, but alas martin seems reluctant.

I can explain.

I asked Asa why this happened a short while ago. I do hope he won't mind me posting this PM:

Hi,

I've removed your post about the banning of James. He's on the war path with me about the unacceptable use of his name(!). Anyway, I think it's hilarious and have sent an equally sarcastic reply back but for the purposes of keeping the piece, I removed your post.

Hope that's ok,
Asa

He also seems to think you bring up that thing about Todgers because you miss the attention?

I emailed him about the use of my name a couple of days AFTER I was banned. The only possible reason I can think of is the email I copied and pasted on this site.

It just shows that Asa and/or his army of little shit spies are everywhere (Ison being the most notable).

Woahh tiger. Let's not get into insulting Ison.
