And I have gotten two warnings over the years; one for personal insult (that I don’t think was one), and one of which was just a misunderstanding on the mod’s part (confusing “you” as a inclusive term for people in general, for you as in the poster I was talking to). > > People get banned on this board mainly by getting in mod’s faces and not backing down. Not for being unpopular. No. You may “knock it off” for a day or two, but then you’re back posting the exact same stuff (often even using the exact same wording) that got you the mod note in the first place. Over and over and over again. Posters get banned all the time for repeatedly ignoring mod instructions. n.b.: I’m not suggesting that you be banned from the MB. But 12 mod notes in the last year alone for the same basic thing in GD should tell us that GD isn’t the place for you. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/curious-when-enough-is-enough-der-trihs/658461)._
