The recent bans on PianoWorld

MBiG · 2021-10-03T16:33:11+00:00

Hello all, Really a very good idea. Opening this forum in parallel with PW, thank you very much. On the subject of the ban. First of all I would like to say that I am very sorry about all this. Especially the fact that the thread was closed because of my OT. I would like to apologise again to everyone in the forum and especially to you, Tyr. Regarding the incident itself, I can only say that apart from the posts as they are to be read in the thread, no other posts were made. So no direct attack or denigration of a member. I was banned without warning. My ban lasts until 10/15. How long Mac and Pete have been banned I can't say of course. As soon as my ban is over I will immediately contact the admin and ask for the thread to be unlocked. If I have to give up my account at PW for this, or if a small compensation for the administrative process would be necessary, this is also fine with me. I absolutely agree with my ban because of OT, but not so much with the fact that the thread was closed immediately. I am against colective punishment. I also think that Mac and Pete were punished too harshly. I apologise again so much, Tyr. Feel free to post this in the thread at PW as well. As long as it helps to clarify the situation. Many thanks and greetings, MBiG

Who else here is eagerly waiting to see Mac’s piano purchase thread? 😀

If I decide to make the piano a birthday gift, then this will be the timer:

Piano Countdown

But if pandemic-induced shortages continue, this one might be more accurate:

Delayed Piano Countdown

Is there a definition of sight reading thread? 😀

A post from 2020 that popped-up today in a resurrected thread in PW's Tuner-Technicians Forum. I don't think it aged that well.

I do not honestly understand why the shortages continue in the US. Early this year there were backlogs everywhere. But the N1X and NV10 are being delivered for quite a while around Europe.

<Hello world>? Is this the right place to say hi 😄 I will join the technical discussions as I did on PW. My time for forum-ing is really quite limited. Thanks to CG for the direct invitation. Hope non-exclusivity is allowed though 😅

Until the high council comes with a ruling, you will be allowed to stay in the premises, under direct supervision though.

@spanishbuddha: I'm very glad to see you here.

As for "dual citizenship" ... do as you please.

I was only banned once. I need to up my game.

One time a new member posted what looked like an ad, and I didn't realise he was just posting about his new piano. I'm not proud of my response, but when I realised I was wrong I apologised to him.

The mod contacted me asking me not to post any more in the thread and I deleted his message after I read it. Apparently I was supposed to grovel, so I was banned for deleting the message. I didn't even realise it was from a mod, but I still would have deleted it. Apparently I should have realised what he wanted me to do with my inbox.

Maybe someone should e-mail the mods to let them know about this forum. We'll probably all get banned for life!

Hi Guys,

I'm mostly reading on PW forum and I have to admit that I sometimes only read the off topic discussions.

I really enjoyed some of those and permanent bans for being off topic crossed a line for me…

Off course the main topic is about piano related stuff, but a little bit of fun should be allowed.

Johnstaf The new forum is refreshing … faster. Cut and paste images … finally … 😉
