Well, Claire, Im glad you took the time.
Unfortunately this forum has been around long before you had arrived, and you arent the person who started this, so I must give you credit for that. However, it being off-season is not a good enough excuse. Both you and I know that all the compulsive internet socialites dont automatically drop their fun and morph into football-fans when the first fixture rolls up.
I've read enough of your posts and certainly heard enough of what was going on. I believe it is fully within the administration's rights to ban someone who is being a disrupting factor on the forum. If the cause of disruption was a pertinent factor- like lets say the cause of fights between you and someone else was somehow related to football, or Juventus, then you would get some merit. Maybe not enough to prevent you from being banned, but still more than nothing.
Maybe you dont understand why you were banned. It was definitely not because the mods dont like you, or Martin doesnt like you as a person, but it was because your attitude and the way you relate with others caused a disruption. People would have been willing to overlook that if you had other, more valuable assets to give to Juventuz.com but they didnt believe you did. Maybe they didnt think you had an interest in football, or Juventus. Maybe they thought you didnt have valuable insight or interesting thoughts to give to the forum. To them, your negatives outweighed your positives. Were they wrong?
