My wife Baja Margie was banned from the DU
this morning for criticising Skinner for calling the Linda's post "ignorant."

This is unfair, and childish. Margie didn't do anything wrong. Skinner really needs to take some time and reevaluate the situation.

The fact that this type of censorship exists on this forum is a real eye opener.

BTW, I haven't been banned yet, so you can still send your vanilla orders to my PM, also Margie said she would give me those Chiapas coffee prices to post as she promised.

Thanks, Mike

Mike, your about to join her if you don't edit your post.
;)

Your not allowed to criticize the admin openly here.

You can ask a question in the "ask the administrator" forum however.

3. That's awful
I frequent the cooking forum and I was considering taking your wife up on her generous offer.

I think you should take this up with Skinner in ATA, not in the Lounge. It'll get locked in here.

7. Some advice
Don't critcize Skinner on the board. It ain't cool. It's his board after all.

PM him if you want to discuss the situation, but it's better if you have your wife contact him directly.

11. I'm really surprised this post is still here.
Your wife needs to take this up privately with Skinner. He is very generous about reinstating people if they show a willingness to work with him.

My guess, this thread will be gone by the time I press "post".

14. Then how come
everyone who criticised the administrator over on GD regarding his new "censorship" rules were not banned?And, they were addressing him personally.

What gives? Why the special treatment of some and not others?

15. Locking
Questions and concerns about DU policy should be posted in the Ask the Administrators forum.
