This is BS. Alex is a great guy and great contributor to Rennlist community. To ban him for 5 weeks for displaying some tiny genitals on a doll, he probably was not aware they existed in the first place is absurd! we need to apeal this executive order from this Moderator ! Mark

Looking at a lava RS makes me think of this Piccasso - Nude with raised hands



Expressive, art, or offensive or opinion? It's all subjective is it not?... Ban or not?
I guess it's up to the moderators!

Alex's ban is entirely about a moderators personal opinion and IMO little to do with the rules. FYI, I have no idea who the mod was.

My post and content has been chosen carefully and posted after reading the IG Terms as well as the forum ones.

I'm missing CAlexio already. This is going to be some tough 5 weeks for all of us.

Reading between the lines, it seems he ruffled the wrong feathers a few too many times.
We dont know how many infraction were made or warnings given.

I say 20 stick beatings and make him drink a Latte after 11 and let him back in now.
He has nowhere else to go, everyone but Prius drivers reserve a second chance.

Funny how the moderator who banned Alex has not responded in this thread.

As you may imagine, the bobblehead is easily findable on google. Getting banned for that is absolutely absurd. Tell him it was deleted, explain the rule, move on.

Vs other car forums I've been on, I've always been pleased at how RL is fairly lenient. Until now. This is the weakest reason for a ban I've ever seen on any forum.

Free Calexio!

QUESTION: what's to stop anyone from just signing up again under a new account?

No kidding. There are quite a few avatars that I have to quickly scroll past if I happen to check Rennlist at work. Naked Trump bobblehead, nobody would care.

Now if he had posted Trump's golden shower videos, that might have been a bit much.

On other forums they will block the IP. This is also used for spam posting.

Agree.

Nor has Eduardo translated his edited bobblehead text into Russian. Hmmm very odd. Btw, I found his image flaunting a couple of copyrights. Is that a banning offense? Hope not.

In this day and age, seems like easy to get around.

Obviously there are probably more facts here we don't know about?

It is, but it is their only real option.

No other facts that are significant or relevant. Got it from the poster of the bobblehead depicting the small gonads!

Yeah, just a bizarre situation and call here it seems especially with the new "banned" info. Sounds permanent to me?

Just surprising seeing the good contributions he makes.
