"Banned," they say. "Don't worry," they say. But beneath their words lurks a dark, terrible secret.

Turned? SF, it may have started as low brow.

If you're counting down to the old EE closing down, they've extended it one more week (it's now the 14th)

Maybe a rogue former moderator can go over there and kick off a couple of mass deletions of a few forum members.A while back someone did this and it wrecked havoc over there.
How about a rogue former poster? I got banned after posting about 30 links to this new forum. I didn't know posting a link to a new site because the old one was closing anyway was against the rules, LOL>
I looked on the old MSN site, and other people have posted links to this board.
They also deleted most of my old posts, as if I used the F-word instead of the link Moonbeam originally provided.
I thought the boards were supposed to close January 1, then they changed it to January 7, and now they extended the closing date to January 14. Kind of like saying: "I am going to divorce you on January 1. No! wait! January 7. NOOOOO wait! January 14." Soon they will extend it to February 1, and then they will cancel their cancellation all together.
What is bundle anyway? I signed up and there is no place to post. How would they think that this would be an O.K. substitute?
Happy New Year.

Suzi, who banned you for posting the link? That link has been posted many many times. I am shocked that you would get banned for it!

It may have been because Suzi overwhelmed each MSN board with it. In some boards like Ask the Credit Counselor, which I think is being saved somehow, she posted the link to every thread on the first page. It may have been sheer volume not the link that got her banned.

Yes, I was too. But like Optimist said, I posted it on most first page threads. I was trying to remind everyone that we were moving, LOL. Lesson learned.

Hey SF, good to see you! Hey, you gotta get yourself a spiffy avatar. I mean a fellow with your savoir faire needs to look classy for the ladies! Can't tell you how many times I've been hit on since I put up that striking dude on the left. Maybe a picture of Jesus since he thinks he's our "Saviour"?

Suzi - Here is the message about your banning:
"SR#: 1146100221 Action Taken: Deleted Reason: Spam Agent Name: Mac - MNL Reported Post and comme"
That is definitely not one of the normal mods who banned you.

Uh, Dem, the fact that the ladies like the avatar has nothing to do with his overall looks. That tongue, on the other hand...I never thought of that, really. I just thought Einstein was cool. Einstein is cool. So were Boltzmann and Laplace.

MSN extended shutdown until the 14th? Are they sounding worried about now?

It would be nice if they would say that they have reconsidered. I like it here, but I wonder how much new "traffic" we will get.

They've also now just posted a closing down notice on their Games forum. They are locking it on Jan 18 with no further posts being allowed, and then leaving it up for reading only until Jan 25. They posted that it will then be transitioned over to their official MSN Games page on Facebook.

BGA4444 is claiming that MSN is attempting to route us all to Bundle to increase their exposure to advertising revenue on that site while keeping the old message boards active permanently. If so, it doesn't make sense. At the very least, a few will continue to check the MSN money message boards site and post that they're still up. As much as I wish that they would keep the old MSN message boards up, I don't see it happening.

One post is all they gave to pump bundle. They must have forgotten to sell the idea to us, when they decided to switch to bundle. Not very well thought out...eh?

Everyone forget MSN. They damned themselves by doing this. They censored often and are against free speech. We have a new site right here, it will grow in time, and is unaffiliated with MSN.
They made the blunder to shut us up, not they have to deal with their decision to do so.
Even if they reopen the boards, I say forget them and pump this new and better site. We are all here now, so no use going back to them. They are obsolete now.

Sorry, but I think if you really think MSN is going to say "OMG, what did we do, we've doomed the company" down the line you're kidding yourself I think.
