freedom123 You have been hellbanned.

     1. People cannot respond to you.
     2. Your posts normally do not show up, unless we choose an option of "showdead".
     3. Everything sent to you is as a normal user. There is no indication that anything is wrong.
That is what a hellbanning is. Or here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hellbanning
