I haven't been able to get ushaped lounge for 2 months.
I now use another computer but still can't get it.
Seems like I'm not the only one!!!

I had begun to think that I had been banned!!!

You are all sure you haven't turned it off yourself, aren't you?

Hover on your name in the top menu bar (click the box with three lines if your name doesn't show), then select 'Ignore new Posts'.

You then get a page where you can select which sub-forums you can see.

Maybe:)

But dont want it it appearing in recent? Just want to be able to look at it occasionally. Can't do much on phone anyway.....
 
I understand that the ushaped lounge is under the Full timer heading in the forum home, what I can't understand is why the home education sub thread there's only 7 posts in there since 2009.

Done that there is no ushaped lounge in there either!!
Emptied cache, logged off and then on, bought new computer still can't get ushaped lounge.
However my friend who recently joined can get it no problem which is why I as so pissed off about it.

So are we banned, server problem, or what??? There is nobody that can tell us apparently!!

Are you possibly banned from the U shaped Lounge and confined to the other sub forums?

I think I read a post from Jim threatening to do that to someone, so it must be possible.

Perhaps ask @Jim

Ignore me.

That doesn't stop you seeing the U shaped lounge, it only stops it's new posts appearing in Recent & New.

Well at least Jim had the decency to tell me that he was going to block my access to the U shaped lounge.

All for daring to challenge some of the unpleasant views SOMETIMES expressed by CERTAIN individuals on that forum.You mentioned something about left wing views.......well that says it all.

It's a poor show from people who profess to fight for freedom and British values and “I may disagree but defend to the death your right to say it” blah blah blah.

They are probably carrrying on winding each other up about the” usual suspects” without knowing (or caring) that the voices of opposition have been ever so quietly silenced.

I decided to just let it go and concentrate on motorhoming but your post just made me realise that the debate has been silenced a lot more than I realised.

In the past I have been very positive about this site not selling out and becoming corporate (like others) but I guess it can have it's downside.

It's funny(frightening) to be writing this and think that it may never appear on the site or I may never be able to post again and disappear (hopefully not literally)

I thought that this forum was one of a good community but it seems that if you don't go along with the party line and disagree with things that a lot of members seem to believe you run the risk of being banned.
Even without the courtesy of a reason.
It seems freedom of speech is not recognized and if you have the slightest bit of descent then you are not welcome.
I have made posts about disagreeing with Tory policies and other right wing thoughts and I have had many a good debate with other members, but I always thought that the forum was about fairness and free speech.
When someone shares a thought that I disagree with then why shouldn't I reply to the post.
However since early July, I cannot do searches, I cannot view the ushaped lounge, and there are many other things that I am no longer able to do. In effect I have been banned without an explanation or right of reply.
I have tried to talk to Jim who does not answer any of my requests.
If anything this only goes to show that thus forum does not want debate or free speech.

I finally realized today that if you can't access parts of the forum like ushaped lounge or some other parts of the site, it is because the ability to allow access is if you are granted permission from the moderator of the site.
If you can't get ushaped lounge the only reason that I can see is because you have been banned.
I only found this out by signing in as another member and having full access.
None of my settings have changed and are the same as another member who can fully access this site.

I have been a champion of this site for a long time. I have told other motorhomers about the comradeship, community, help and advise that this site gives.
I never thought that this sort of censorship would happen on this site but sadly I am wrong.

I have finally got the message even though nobody had the decency to discuss the reasons why I have been banned. Even though I have asked.

I DO NOT WANT TO LEAVE but it is clear that I or my left wing ilk are not wanted. I will miss this site. I will miss the debates, I will miss the jokes, the advice, the banter with other members.

You and me both mate.

My subs are just due for renewal and I find myself asking similar questions, I think I have gained a similar amount of knowledge on the motorhome front as I have shared - which is how it should be, certainly got plenty of likes, but definitely feel if your views are slightly to the left of atila the hun then the immediate response is eviction from the lounge.
 
So it's all a right wing conspiracy:rolleyes:

@fastpat you are well aware that your political leanings have nothing to do with you being able to see the u shaped lounge. I wrote and told you twice that if your behaviour in there (constant bickering and getting personal) didn't change then you would not be able to see it. Rather than accept that you argued the toss.

@webby1. As I explained to you last year; your posting style in that forum got you banned from it. Nothing to do with your political persuasion. You can't help getting personal when you debate so it's better your not there, argue nicely or not at all.

@gazza280 I have no idea why you cannot see that particular forum since the software upgrade. had I banned you from it I would have told you, just like I told the others above. If the other profile you created works then use that and I will transfer your subs to it.

Thread closed.
