It's very clear, that the ban was for the jokes, because some people didnt like to see jokes about pocketbook.
All the jokes dont use injuries or bad words, they seem to be constructed with the intention to seem funny.

I've no need to convince myself I'm a regular in this PB forum and besides this recent thread every post I've seen from cipri lately had been either a rant or thinly veiled sarcasm and mostly off topic, it's understandable but disruptive.

so you noticed

If something is not right, something is not right, and should be pointed out - but overly repeated complaining only dilutes it.

I convinced myself, i read all comments of the last 1-2 weeks, and nearly 100% of all comments in the last 2 weeks are jokes posted in a jokes-thread, and they look funny to me, additionally it was said, that if somebody feels harmed by one joke, he begs to be contacted and he will change or delete the joke.
All jokes are about pocketbook, so it's very unlikely that somebody feels offended.

Can you provide a copy of one comment (or more) in the last week, that could have been the reason for a ban?

Cipri, if you were ukanian, would you find your jokes funny ?

if you were a blond girl, would you find the jokes about blond girls funny?

Another joke:

A boy goes with his girlfriend to a restaurant, and they order french fries with steak.
They pay the bill, but they get only the french fries without the steak. They are eating the french fries and leaving the restaurant with complaining. How curious!

The explanation is: They are pockebook clients, and they are already used to that kind of treatment, that means, paying for something and not geting it.

Actually, where is stated he got banned? Cipri received some mod-warnings for not sticking to MR-rules, and the german jokes-thread was closed, but AFAIk there was no downright ban

I asked the same question earlier, and a kind soul privately pointed out to me that the word 'Banned' appears under the person's username in their messages. I only look at that information for usernames I'm not too familiar with, so I didn't notice it at all until it was pointed out to me. It's nice to know I'm not the only one.

The status was changed to "Banned".

Perhaps even the moderator which applied the ban will have the courage to say: "yes, it was me".

OK sorry! Didn't see this

cipri/emil.m: quit it. seriously. As so many stated before: It does NOT get better if you repeat it over and over.

I suppose you haven't seen the German thread (And why should you have? It was duly closed by moderators, by the way). Anything but inoffensive, as far as I'm concerned.

Actually, they were not so much jokes as thinly veiled insults. They were referring to certain PB employees by name, accusing them and the company of all kinds of mischief and incorrect behavior. Nothing funny about it.

They seem to, but they aren't.
