Banned on CPF - WTF?

probably from too much ass-baiting.

Rule 1: Have a surefire

Rule 2: CPF is your God

Rule 3: Surefires are your saints

Rule 4: Don't smart-ass bait ...

Come on my friend, you obviously broke more than one rules :D :D :D

I am really interested in some of this illegal automotive lighting. Could you hook me up? No assbaiting please :)

Well I'm so glad to be back

And I have read the rules , every last one of them

No more 'Smart Ass-Baiting' for me no way,

Know what I should be doing and saying on the board, after my

Education in the ways of Surefire kiss assing

Really sorry about my previous banning

Sincerely, I mean that folks

As per the thread I participated in, the OP wanted to know a good quality kit to put in his halogen projectors.

I told him DDM was decent for the money and a shitstorm ensued. This is where I took it to the absurd level.

After everyone was done telling him that the kits were illegal and he was a bad person for even thinking about doing such a thing I told him that he will be okay using the kit as HID projectors are just halogen projectors turned up side down. The comments that came after that was simply amazing. Everyone there thought I was serious. So, I explained to them that it allowed the light to light up more of the things ahead of you instead of the road directly ahead of you actually giving you better night vision. Holy crap, shouldn't have done that! Here comes "DM" threatening me with the banhammer because NO ONE sees the obvious joke.

It should be called Aspergers forum instead of candlepower forum.

This just made my day!

Well, I'd assume it's the process of luring an ass out of hiding and making it show itself in the open. And you have just managed to bait the biggest ass of all over there. Congratulations!

Good one Tido!

Sounds correct!

honestly what a tedious waste of life, is there a limit on taking a dump there too

you just cant have an opinion over there , surprised they dont ban people for posts over here

i dont know how people tolerate it

Actually, I think I'm going to cancel my membership over there and keep it exclusive here. I do like CPFMarketplace.com though as that is how I found out about Spark lights. I LOVE my Spark lights.

Is this how it's done?

A CPF primer. These are the CPF rules:


1. Registration and password information
2. Email to Webmaster
3. Siglines, Avatars and Images
4. Flaming/Baiting/Trolling/Banning
5. Posting articles and links
6. Advertising and Shilling on CandlePowerForums
7. Read the Stickies & Announcements!!
8. Whining and complaining about the rules
9. Double and cross posting
10. Fundraisers & Donations
11. Disclaimer
12. Reposting Private Communication

The only ones you need to worry about are Rule 6, 8, and 12.

Rule 6 means that you can't talk about anything that doesn't make CPF money in some manner. If you are about to post ask yourself "is this an interesting subject?" If it is, don't post as you will be in violation of Rule 6.

Rule 8 means that when your post/thread disappears you can't ask why. If your link is deleted citing Rule 6 you can't ask for the rule to be explained.

Rule 12 means that when you get a nasty PM from a moderator you can't share that experience with anyone else.

Red headache inducing banners warning you about what will and will not go toward your "post count" are a form of welcoming you to "our family".

I hope this has cleared things up and will allow for a more orderly and obedient experience next time you visit CPF. Please wipe you feet and wash you hands before entering...single file..and please keep the noise level down.

Thank you.

BLF, the refugee camp for banished CPF'ers.

anyone got any screen wipes. I just sprayed coffee all over my screen. What a laugh!

My suggestion to KlowD9x is to create a new username " smart-ass_baiter". and use this pic as your avatar

See how long it takes to get banned.

about it were i in the middle of it all, but man, this is some funny stuff.

of the carrot and the ass almost made me spit up.

:D

BLF, home for the wayward CPF'er! I was turned on to this forum, my new home after nearly being banned. I had my post deleted when I violated rule number 5. As others have posted links I think it's an Orwellian hypocrisy that I can't do the same. (I must be one of the less equal pigs). I was pissed the moderator said I violated rule number six despite the fact that I unintentionally violated rule number 5! I then broke rule number six and 8 I think by questioning the moderator's ethics and asking him to explain himself. Then I broke rule number 12. I guess I was on a role.

I'm probably gonna get myself banned for "ass-baiting" some guy that is looking to design and sell 26650 hosts. I suggested that he do tooling on the body like JetBeam does on its titanium bodies as it would tie the lines together rather nicely. The guy said in his response that he would not copy someone elses design. Moron had already copied the P60 drop in housing, Ronac's cooling bezel and a switch housing form SolarForce. So I told him he should be aware that some guy named Ronac had copied his bezel and was calling it cryos something and selling it as well some chinese company had copied his switch and were selling it too. Maybe they haven't banned me yet 'cause I told him in the post that I was giving him crap and to mellow out.

A number of people PM'd me and recommended I come here. I was immediately welcomed and made to feel at home. What a difference!

lol ya almost had me spittin coffey , thats a laugh

The beatings will continue until morale improves...

I hadn't thought about it till now but, I haven't been to CPF for quite a while - I don't miss it.
