> [@Superdude](#): > > When I first started posting here, I was a very obscure and unknown stand-up comedian. After a few years, I disappeared from the board, and resurfaced as an EMT. I’m sure someone has grown tired of hearing me say one or the other. To be fair, as an EMT, you’re still obscure and unknown. Unless you’re the one that goes past my apartment with siren at full blast and incessant horn honking at 3am when he’s the only person driving on the street. Then I know you. ---

There this one poster who always talks about being poor, being depressed, and being suicidal, what a bore. I wish he would snap out of it or get laid or even just kill himself already, so we don’t have to listen to him anymore. ION: The EGG NOG is flowing!!! ---

Scottish? I thought you were a Spaniard living in the Cameroons or something. Bless my soul. And **Legion** was known for discussing the Marianas Trench. ---

You might try reading the warnings. They probably mention why you’re being warned. ---

> [@tooldtocare](#): > > It seems I am, I have gotten six warnings for what I might ask? :smack: Wow, 6 warnings? And you are still here??? 😕 As RNATB says, you might try actually reading them to see what they were about. You probably also received some emails from the Mods. What I can tell you is that you are skating out on the thin ice if you have 6 warnings (I’ve been here since 2003 and I have 3 as a reference), so you might want to actually read those things and learn something about this boards workings if you are interested in sticking around and not having BANNED under your name fairly soon.
