Alfred Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 At a guess..... He's been a bad boy (I know not why). Moderation is severe on this site. You're about to be told off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dekers Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Correct me if I'm wrong but I understand he is banned, the specifics I know not ........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welsh1 Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 An answer was given to your question,therefore anything else said would only be conjecture. Makes sense to stop it there as the person could not come on to defend himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alfred....that's not my point, I politely asked about a member, if anyone knew or talked with Pole Star, just to know if he was ok, said that, I don't think, it should be a reason for locking a post.

HDAV Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Probably locked to minimise speculation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welsh1, sincerely, I don't find it relevant, that it as been banned or not, I only asked, if anyone as had contact with this member, I only wanted to know if he ok...that's all.

HDAV Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Looks like jonathanL has been banned too. Maybe they ran off together to start an anti italian target shooting range in shetland on goose sanctuary? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malkiserow Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Maybe it was pointless continuing when we had the answer.....? I plan to polish their Corporate range rovers at the London PW meet next month...... Then ask then for the dirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welsh1 Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 (edited) Welsh1, sincerely, I don't find it relevant, that it as been banned or not, I only asked, if anyone as had contact with this member, I only wanted to know if he ok...that's all. ATB The problem when someone is banned is whispers and half truths abound when someone asks about them, and it is only fair to the banned person who has no recourse to anything said that may be wrong that the thread is stopped. I can see the reasoning behind the MODS decision. Edited January 30, 2014 by welsh1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephenNE Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 would have just been easier to say why he was banned and leave it at that instead of having people speculate then when a topic comes up about them locking the topic since it will cause more speculation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see the reasoning behind the MODS decision. I can see your point and I agree, but because myself and this member exchange quite a few pm's and emails, about woodcock shooting and other subjects, I just wanted to know, if he was ok, due to the fact that we haven't messages or emailed for some time, I didn't want to start some sort of debate on his persona. ATB would have just been easier to say why he was banned and leave it at that instead of having people speculate then when a topic comes up about them locking the topic since it will cause more speculation Exactly.....I didn't know that he was banned.

ATB To be fair Big Mat gave you a link,in which Zapp gives reasons why polestar is not on the forum, and then Fenboy confirms that the mods have told him polestar is banned.

Cranfield Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 I suspect that the thread was closed as the request for information had been made and no doubt anyone having information would contact the OP. However, I can also add, "."Hi Highbird70, unfortunally this member as been banned, hence you can't get in contact on here." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
