The most interesting person in this forum is gone (his nick is turned black). What happened? I hope it's just a glitch, since I'll most def miss his posts, (poky) and intelligent humour and also insight into this business

Would be sad to lose another one...

I was wondering the same thing.  I figured maybe he went over the line with his humor and got a temporary ban. 

Christian, if you're reading along drop me an e-mail at my website.

Yeah I remember him getting banned for the reason you put down, however I don't think he did anything wrong, he just said something in a sarcastic way to an annoying and even more stupid person. I mean what can you do. To illustrate the person in question (not Lagereek you dumb... :) ;) ) I have a few quotes at hand:

There is no sin except stupidity. Oscar Wilde

It's too bad that stupidity isn't painful. Anton LaVey

Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe. Albert Einstein

Just think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are even stupider!  George Carlin

There's a lot more to it with Lagereek, it's just a shame so many ppl don't get him. He's very good in psychology and I know exactly what he's doing at times (though I never revealed it, since he has so much fun and me along when reading it). It's just so much more behind his words (or between the lines at times), the vast majority of ppl see just...well I'll stop here since I don't wanna say too much. Those who get him, get him and will keep on understanding him, those who don't never will. But all I can say many of his posts are brilliant

Usually when he goes over the line, he gets a running start first.  ;D

Did anybody see anything dodgy from him recently? I didn't notice anything that looked over-the-top.

Just heard from him.  Apparently his name went black and he was shut out without any notice.  Most likely a glitch, or possibly a hack.  Hopefully Tyler can get to the bottom of it.

Hope he's turned back on soon. For better or worse (sometimes both!) Christian certainly keeps things interesting around here :)

Really odd "glitch" - never seen it happen before. Hopefully Christian will be back soon.

very strange, yes.  His account has been deleted and that doesn't just happen by itself.

I can only think of a few possibilities of how this could happen.

A) Lagereek deleted his own account
B) I mistakingly deleted his account when trying to delete a spammer
C) Someone had control of his account and deleted it

I delete a user (spammer) almost on a daily basis .. but when I do I also delete all their posts and threads.  If I had accidently deleted Lagereek all his posts would have also been erased (which they are not).  Needless to say I tripple check when I delete a spammer. 

Anyhow, I've emailed him and we're finding a solution.

I did wonder if it was another of his little jokes.

I've seen ayzek turn black as well. Something must be going on. Are you sure they didn't hack your site and are deleting members and perhaps doing some other damage Leaf? It can be a coincidence of course, he could have deleted his acc, but I can't see a reason for that, it usually happens with ppl getting fed up or Leaf getting fed up with them :)

I never delete people's accounts who aren't simply spammers.  If someone is misbehaving I simply put a ban on their account (which can be reversed).

Lagereek didn't delete his account (and least not to his knowledge) and I didn't delete his account (to my knowledge).  Some sort of a hack is highly unlikely but I suppose possible.

Ok, it looks like his account has more or less been reinstated ... that last post was by me, setting up his account and testing it.  I'll just wait for him to take it over.

HALLO everybody and thanks for your support, warms my heart and my ( balls) :D thanks to Tyler and a BIG thanks to everybody here, heck! I didnt know I was even gonna get missed.
However, keep your eyes open:  same day as my account went black here, two sites also lost my username, so there might be some imbecile, having great fun.

Know what Im a beginner with a fresh account, all my terrific useful posts are gone and my 30 ignores, pitty, I was rather proud of my ignores. Thanks to Lisa for notifying Tyler, and all.

Wut!  you nailed me in one shot!

best! :)

Welcome back  ;D

I see you have one 'ignore' already!  Maybe it's someone pulling your plonker.
