This was all done by the admins late last night. So no hackings or anything. As of yet there has been no explanation.

I can accept warnings and bannings for insults and spamming, but what ever happened to free speech?

If people are saying things that are unacceptable then why aren't we told what these things are?

Things like this don't happen without a reason, lets trust Sebastians judgement here please - I see no point in discussing it futher

Until this is explained to me in full, I will not be happy. This is a matter of principle. What is the forum coming to when a perfectly innocent poll about BTC is deleted and members are banned without warning? Have these people been banned for having negative opinions? Was the BTC poll too negative?

I respect Seb, but I just don't see the need to do these things. Has something happened that we don't know about? Have Scooter themselves ordered this? Has there been a change to the rules?

For once I agree with DFS. What the h*ll is going on?

I back you 110% on this. Unless we get an actual explanation on what is happening then there is no reason for us to keep calm about our friends being banned here.

And you said it yourself, Sandra. I quoted you from this before.
"We are all responsible for each others actions"

Maybe this is partly true... I'm not blaming you at all Sandra I love you to death, but we really need to be told what is going on!!!


By the way can we get a list on who has been banned over the last 2 weeks???

Seems like PASH-A, Coonposse and DJ Tranceforce at least.

For once I agree with DFS. What the h*ll is going on?

DJ Tranceforce, coonposse, ttk and DmasterP were all banned late last night. Coonposse and ttk told me they weren't warned first.

Mega's poll about BTC and scooterusa's topic called "Bring Lincoln Back" were deleted, as were two topics asking for some kind of explanation for all this, one by ttk and one by myself.

No explanation for all this as of yet...

And of course, this follows on from PASH-A being banned for posting a file name of his promo copy of BTC, not a link as was assumed by those that reported him.

I'm sorry, but without explanation, non of this is acceptable.

Okay. I can understand ttk. He has this... strange way of acting.

Only bad thing about coonposse has been his negativity to modern Scooter. As well as DJ Tranceforce.

Does admin just want to hide the problems? Out of sight out of minds?

Call him a conspiracy theorist if you want, but coonposse told me that he believes that this has been ordered by Scooter to curb negative opinions, opinions they think will put people off buying BTC. If this state of affairs is not explained to us, I'll be tempted to think he may have a point.

Oh My God!

A consipacy theory! :lol:

Get real!

Maybe Sebastian is just looking at whats been happening around here recently

By DmasterP and Marat I understand it totally, ttk is not such a surprise too. :mrgreen:

But about coonposse and DJ Tranceforce I am indeed a bit surprised, ok mabe I did not know what they have done last time.

Unless we get an answer, this may be true.

These people are part of our Scootertechno Community, our family...

What do you mean? What's been happening? People stating their opinions?

I can't believe you are trying to shirk this one, Sandra. Most people seem to agree that this is irregular in the extreme.

I still think it's strange that people with negative opinions about modern Scooter gets banned. There isn't any "fanatics" in the list of banned members. Also Coonposse and DJ Tranceforce haven't broke rules. At least I can't remember it.

And the thing is that I feel myself threaten. If the trend is like this, will I be the next one? Even though I have been one of the people who have always followed the rules.

Believe it or not I have read the rules, ALL OF THEM, and I know that I personally haven't broken any. I'm sure you'll be fine... But it does raise a question:

Why is all of this an issue now, and wasn't during the Third Chapter???

Exactly. The trend seems to be, you don't have to break the rules to have a topic deleted, or even to be banned. Why is that acceptable?

I'll save the conversation and just say that I second that :lol: :lol: :lol:

It seems that there'll soon be a dictatorship on this forum led by admin that decided to ban members that don't think all positive about Scooter and don't praise everything they do.Topics that were deleted were in fact the most interesting topics in last time, all other included some guessing about single or expectations, these two were topics where there was a clue of some serious discussion.Actually I'm talking only about Bring Lincoln topic, I haven't seen the others, but deleting any topic seems stupid to me, it's better to lock it, because it's more strange when topic just disappears.

I think that all of us deserve an explanation from admin, although he may say that he doesn't have to explain us anything, we want to know what's going on, because the only possible thing, as pjad suggests, seems the change of rules!It seems that from now we must talk only good about Scooter and ask before posting polls?!

And I'm glad to see that ttk is already back.He has his own style of communication but he hasn't break any rules, so there's no reason to ban him.The same goes for coonposse, DJTF and some others.

Some people may laught at that, but it's not excluded.
However, it seems to me that a danger conspiracy is coming upon the rest of members on this forum that don't bow when they hear name Scooter.

And I don't understand how can you Sandra defend admin?To get bonus points?Do you know something more about banning?
