Of late, someone who runs a board I have frequented for years has started making OT political posts. When I asked him to make those posts elsewhere, I got banned from the board. Is there an appeal mechanism for situations like this?

WOW, someone just wiped out all the follow-ups to your post.

Did SI relocate to Russia or China?

First what I was going to post to you prior to the IMHO idiotic post removal.

"Don’t worry about being banned by GZ. He has politized his TA forum and runs it in Chinese / Russian fashion.

Why would you even want to post on it?

He even banned one of the most prominent SI TA posters. Egomaniacs at work."

Second, Ron disputed you claim:

I know he's good buddies with at least one of the administrators

That is 100% not true. I don't favour anyone.



Then came the utterly misguided deletion of posts as these posts which did NOT breach TOU terms

PS: I should point out that I utterly disagree with the way you and many others use SI by turning it into a political forum. SI was designed to be a stock market forum. Now its just another inconsequential platform to promote personal political views.

Okay, three things in your post that I will set straight since what I wrote was censored. I see yours is not.

1. I did not say I wanted to post on Ground Zero's threads. I said I wanted my profile cleared of the unfair bannings. (GUESS I CAN HOLD MY BREF UNTIL I TURN BLUE AND SEE IF IT WILL HAPPEN THEN.)

2. It was SI that set up the "Political" section - not me.

3. I never post politics on any threads except the politics section. I know it happens, but slamming me for it is out of line.

According to your profile, you seem to enjoy one of the most bitterly partisan corners of SI Politics:
