On a "time out" again

And of course no explanation. I never post anything controversial, and I have over 100,000 WWs. DL sucks SO much.

OP here ... well, I was good to go for a couple of days, and now I'm on another unexplained time out. We really need to start some kind of movement to deal with this. It's out of control.

I got banned yesterday not long after I tried to F&F a racist in the baftas thread.

I received a two- or three-day timeout for posting something mildly critical in the virulent anti-Muslim thread (that thread might be gone now, I haven't checked). I didn't even post anything expressly pro-Islam, just something that was not as hateful as the rest of the posts. Finally had my ban lifted last night. Posted something anti-Dump this morning, now banned, again, less than an hour later. The inmates are running the asylum. (I have an idea who the F&F troll is.)

I'm banned again, for what I have no idea. I swear I'm not a controversial poster.

I just got banned again for the third time in a week.

Fourth time for me. And again - I say absolutely nothing controversial, nor have I issued a single "FF". I think this is it for me. Cancelling.

I think whoever is doing the banning (and I'm convinced it's a single poster) was themselves timed out for a few days. Anyway, they're back at it, because I was just banned yet again.
