There should be an amnesty for banned posters each year.
It was far across the sea,
When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

Endorsed. Or at very least an open discussion about allowing people back.

Wouldn't have an issue myself, will see what the other mods say. Albeit it appears to be mainly just myself and Sham these days.

Lads don’t/wont comeback because the forum is sh*te not because of the top level security around banned posters. 
Were kidding ourselves to think otherwise

I would actually argue that would only be conclusively proven if you invited them back, and they refused on grounds of lack of interest. More likely the have gotten out of the habit of positing here, and have moved on.

There is no doubt that the bans were justified and some aren't. 

There should be criteria set around the bans - 24 hour ban, week long ban etc..

The forum is losing too many decent skins. No doubt some are a PITA.

PreMadonna is not banned - he just left of his own accord.

I don't have a list of who was banned, bu there are a fair few who were banned over the course of year and beyond.

Is there anyone that is banned that actually wants to return.  This is just a load of hot air really.  Can’t think of one poster who was banned who is missed in anyway.

What's to stop a banned person from setting up a new account?

I know you can trace IP etc but would unless it's repeated offences it wouldn't be that strict

Nothing really, but usually it's fairly obvious

Oh yes, remember topper came back a few times.

Premadonna had a previous account too and was banned but was back on pretty soon after albeit he was pretty open about his identity

The heyday of the forum is definitely behind us, for plenty of reasons

I think this was trapnoclue or whoever it was. He had multiple profiles. 

He spent some time setting up these accounts - what a guy LOL.

Horseboxyellowteeth.

Forgive me, but that made me laugh a bit.

Why was the poster called ‘topper?’. When I joined he was under a different name, and was fairly prolific.
