You got banned because you refused to listen to the advice you sought in putting five tangs in the 150 gallon you had at the time. That was excellent advice.

I see you took the advice and moved up to a 600 gallon.
Good move!

Actually, it was another guy ("reefy") with a 150 who asked about adding tangs to it. Cougarman just jumped in with his opinion.

You got banned for that?!? Wow


I got banned because I put something smart @#$ in the signature fields because I got annoyed about filling out new forms every time I visited the site.

Ya they want you to do that so they can bash your approach to reefkeeping. If I was a newbie, I'd never ask a question in a thread on that site.

I did the same thing with the information fields and the same thing happened to me. I totally meant to go back and fill them in properly one day soon, but it wasn't soon enough and the hammer fell. As staff here I really don't want to comment on another board's policies but I will say this, the incredible signature load and the plethora of fonts and colours in every thread made it very difficult for me to zero in on the actual content of posts. I was constantly scrolling this way or that to try to find the ONE line of post content buried in literally screen fulls of irrelevant info. I kind of like the idea of posting tank specs but a link to a page with the info would suffice rather than reading it over and over (and over and over). Plus it was really not conducive to folks who have multiple tanks with different methodologies per each tank. Ooops, I guess I commented after all. Well, just pretend I didn't say any of this, Ok?

PS. "Alot" isn't a word. I can still hear my grade 6 teacher ranting about "alot" a lot. She did rant a lot about us using "alot" a lot. "Alot isn't a word. That's "A-let." A lot is a lot, as opposed to a little. We don't say alittle. But you're saying alot a lot." OKAY MISS SAMPHIRE I GET IT! I'm 37 now! Please get out of my imagination!!!

you got banned for that?
I'm cancelling my membership with AP cuz I just joined a month ago and it would only be a matter of time before I come up with some insightful contrarian idea that makes that moderator, founder and hitler go chinese republic on me....lol

I liked how he tried to cut down yur references to it being science by supplying his own brand of "science" that also had no backing to it.

It was like he was fighting fire with fire but didn't know you could get burned doing it.

funny too that there is no mention in the thread of you being banned for voicing your honest opinion in a non combative way, he just said his final non sensical piece and closed it....lol
what a muppet moderator.

thanks for that, now I saved myself another bulletin board membership....
