Well most here already know of this, but satscams has apparently 'stealth banned' me. This means I can still login there, see most of my posts and even post again. But no one else can see my posts. Chill had asked why all my posts were removed and this was satscams reply back on 27-8-2006:
he was stealth banned, this will automatically temp block all previous posts.
it is temp oversight and will be fix in a bit.
Well all of my posts, even the one intended to help fellow hobbiests protect their anonymity when surfing the internet, are still unviewable by all. I have relayed to satscams and his staff that I think it looks very suspicious that they did not just give me a regular ban (ie. just do not allow me to login and put banned under my handle) and instead have choosen to block everyone from reading my informative posts. Satscams appears to be trying to cover up the mess he got himself into by not allowing his members and guests to read my posts and form their own opinion on the events that transpired. I was probably the least hostile and most respectful poster that site EVER had. I NEVER used foul language or resorted to name calling, even after some there (including some current staff) devolved into calling me names. I relied on honesty and logic to make my arguments, rather than childish name calling. If satscams and his staff have even an ounce of honesty left in them they will restore my posts and, if they do not want me posting there anymore then, just leave me with a normal ban (ie. 'BANNED' placed under my handle for all to see). But I have a feeling that having my handle show up with banned under it is far more of a problem for there reputation than it is for mine. The only other sites I have EVER been banned at were known scamming sites, like fuckdtv, and once for about an hour at Hashhu by BMD after I began questioning the bogus Outlaw P4 hack claims. And Snatty, the owner of Hashhu at the time, removed the ban within an hour or two without my intervention because he knew it was wrong for BMD to ban me. So satscams and his site and staff are in the same category as scammers in my opinion for imposing this 'stealth ban' upon me. If anyone wants copies of most of the threads and posts of mine that have been removed from there I have them and can provide them, uneditted, to anyone who requests them.
