jonnyswamp Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 Sent a guy a private message on the other forum directing him here after he had no replies to a question he posted regarding C-map Had a PM of the mod, that I was recruiting for another forum and it was banned I replied saying I was only offering advice because no-one had replied on the thread and that there were some knowledgeable people on this forum who could probably help So either the guy reported me or they are monitoring all messages I'm deeply offended Andy135 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonC Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 This will be the guy I messaged, I have been banned from there tonight. I wouldn’t be surprised if the account was a ringer- it wasn’t new but I hadn’t heard of him. They are losing members at a hell of a rate and blame us as opposed to looking in the mirror. I was bang to rights though so can’t complain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyswamp Posted November 1, 2020 Author Share Posted November 1, 2020 When I went in to my messages to see the posters name, I noticed your message to me about this site and saw that under your name was the word "banned" 🤣 I had a small chuckle to myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonC Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 I was waiting for it to happen. The thing is though if it is a real username then he’s lost out because there are people on here that can answer questions like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy135 Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 Who was the poster asking about C-Map? I may be able to help him... if we can get him across somehow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnboijon Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 (edited) Never mentioned anything or reported anyone. Signed up as i was given the link. So they must be monitoring. Ive been a member there for years. Had my fair share of messages deleted over time. I used to post regularly on the old conservation area. long gone now.

Welcome to the Offshore Outlaws! Good to have you with us. Sorry to hear that the mods are in overdrive back on the other site. You'll find it a bit (a lot!) more relaxed over here. Go ahead and post up an Intro post, and maybe start a post on your C-Map question - we'll do our best to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy135 Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 Jon, I suspect you're right - it smacks of paranoia on their part but as you say, it's just about sharing the knowledge as far as anglers are concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
