    Gregoshi was offended by what I stand for, not what I said. I can't for the life of me see what is so insulting in saying someone doesn't what he's talking about when it's in fact the truth. Gregoshi saw it fit to ignore the comment:
    "However, I'm quite afraid I'm going to have to continue insulting your 'holy' language. A language I find about as pleasing to the ear as German, and that is certainly no compliment."
    Which not only insulting to me, but to all greeks and perhaps even Germans. Instead he punishes me twice, for saying the absolute truth. Well not that I care that much about my warn state on a website, but I don't think I should be limited to the backroom because some mod thought I was being offencive(which I wasn't).

    Actually, as a good share of the warnings that ultimately led to your banning came from violations of the forum rules in Backroom threads (Gregoshi's warning was indeed only the last straw), I don't think it's inappropriate at all that you are banned from the Backroom.

    If somebody feels that he has the right to be offensive (as you previously stated) than this person should better be man enough to live with the consequences of exercising this perceived right.

    Yet, after receiving lots of PMs and no-point warnings that pointed out violations of the forum rules to you, and after countless promises from your side to improve - and even starting several begging threads in the Watchtower to persuade Tosa to reduce your warning level - you still did not change your behaviour in the slightest way.

    You know the forum rules, various moderators have in the past been rather lenient with you and trusted that you might improve your behaviour, you decided that it is your right to ignore the forum rules and any warnings. Now you are yet again confronted with some (minor I would like to pint out) consequences, and act like a poor innocent child on which the moderators have decided to gang up.
    A lot of words come to mind to describe such behaviour - none of which would be appropriate for me to use here.

    Sorry, for discussing this in the open - this would usually not be the style I prefer - but considering the way this thread went, I had the feeling that some things needed to be put into perspective.
