So banning or not banning is nothing but a joke?

Sean knows better than that. He was just joking.
That's absolutely correct. (Hence the " :lol: ")
Gob did not outright deny it...
Yeah, I remember what he said...I'm sure he that he posted that sort of sly ambiguous response as a joke as well, (probably assuming that no one would really think that he would ban someone and keep it a secret...)

Keld, I cannot imagine Strop really doing that.

Sean was making a 'conspiracy theorist' joke. Seems obvious to me.

Gob would very likely tell you that quad has not been banned if you were to ask him directly. When an answer can be easily found, it's better to ask than to assume (unless you're quad, of course).

Keld, I'm puzzled...

What part of "not banned" is unclear or ambiguous?

Why add all the other marmite to a simple question?

Since a simple question was all that was needed.

I didn't know Quad so I don't have a dog in that fight.

But a straight answer is all I was asking for, I don't think that was unreasonable.

Nothing more, guess I'll live with what I got...

I said something to quad via PM that may have prompted his self-imposed exile. I am not sorry for it, either.

No, Quad has not been banned.

All you have to do is click on the "members" link, click on "Q" and you will see him as a registered member.

Sorry about that Keld, my fault I was hoping to add some humour to the debate.

Daisy's reply looked straight forward to me. I don't know how
'not banned just wandered off' can be interpreted in any other way than what she actually wrote.

No worries, quad was on here yesterday, as shown by his member details.

I certainly miss quad's entertaining posts. Maybe he's much too occupied with being highly important at his job in the real world.

You know... the place with computers, trees, oxygen and where quad is mandated to give his name & job title to everyone he comes in contact with?

Yes... and where quad knows more about the quality of records vs CD's than anyone else in the world.

And the world where he would have Barack Obama for a boss if Timothy Geithner were to call in sick.
