Did I miss something, why was @keikilove banned?

capnjackharkness

Yeah... did BGs accidentally ban @keikilove instead of whomever they were SUPPOSED to ban????  Random!

gingermama29

Yeah that's super weird! Hopefully she has a friend coming soon.

legallykate

Wait what? That is so random!

mvt2003

Seriously?! Banning @keikilove (who has never even had a warning) is bizarre and un-called for! I also notice they banned her but the threads that were "controversial" are still there. So lame! 

This is one of the very few times that the waiving of the 3-day waiting period is now useful. Come back quickly @keikilove! 

manillabar

yeah I just came to ask the same thing... so strange!

kitchendisaster

Okay so I’m sure I missed something but can someone cue me in on the pastry gifs? Haha 

I remember back in June 2016 when I lurked my BMB BG’s randomly banned people left and right. I was hoping they had chilled out. Bummer though she seemed really nice. 

capnjackharkness

I searched her post history and usually when someone is banned there's a *Removed for TOU Violation* note put in for what they gave warnings for / banned someone over.  There's NOTHING like that in her post history.  So yeah, pretty sure BGs did a boo-boo somehow.  Hopefully they fix it soon!


@kitchendisaster  There was a peggy some weeks ago that made some inane statement.  And I said "Congrats!  Here's a cookie!" and put in a cookie GIF.  Then everyone started asking me for cookies, so I started posting MORE cookie GIFs.  Then someone said next time we should do a different baked good... and it took off from there.

I just caught up on the drama from last week and yeah, definitely didn't see a single thing in any of @keikilove's posts that seemed even remotely ban-able. She was very measured and polite actually! So weird.

Too bad we don't get points for reporting people because I'd have a lot at this point 

I should get a new hobby

capnjackharkness

@inthewoods23 Oh yeah... at least a few dozen just from reporting me!     Also, we could add "learn to crochet / sew / craft" into TB TTGP Zoom call! 

emeraldduchess

Do we have a baked good for the next Peggy? 

babylove2021

Uuummmm, I’m back. I think??
I’ve had a friend watching from the wings in case things went sideways, but they weren’t able to access the site today either. Very strange.
I emailed TB support & they said I shouldn’t be banned, then they sent me a password reset. But I’ve been locked out during a newbie waiting period of several hours & learned a lot:
1) The instructions told me to “browse, lurk, & get to know TB traditions while waiting for the ability to post”. Nope, I couldn’t access any groups or read any rules. So that may be one reason why nobody reads the first post at the top of the page.
2) I could use the Search function to stalk TTGP posts, which eventually led me to this thread, which is how I learned I was banned. Hahaha!!
3) I got no warnings or messages before getting kicked out. Just woke up & couldn’t access any boards or threads across all of TB.
3) All my inbox messages are gone, so I think I’m back to newbie status.

Idk if somebody’s #stillmad, or if I got reported for posting something involving religion, or if TB just made a mistake. But I’m glad to be back nonetheless! THANK YOU all for the kind words/righteous indignation on my behalf.😄 Y’all are seriously the best friends I’ve never met.💗

babylove2021

Welp, this didn’t work. Gonna repost.

ashaislurking

@babylove2021 I'm glad you're back and I'm still scratching my head trying to figure out what even happened in the first place. 

asf0613

@babylove2021 welcome back! seriously very strange but not at all surprising that TB is all messed up for both you and your friend and not working as it should

kpearse99

@babylove2021 thank GOODNESS you’re back!!!! I’m glad you emailed them and they said you shouldn’t have been banned... but this situation is sooooo strange! Nonetheless you are back and all is good in our little world again! 

mvt2003

@babylove2021 Yay!!!!!! Glad you're back! 

inthewoods23

Finally! A newbie that isn't spamming us  welcome back @babylove2021!

manillabar

🙌🏾 Glad you’re back, @babylove2021

kitchendisaster

Welcome back @babylove2021

whitealbum29

@babylove2021 Glad you are back!! Such a bizarre situation! I'm glad they told you you shouldn't have been banned, it made no sense.

bluetickgal

@babylove2021 welcome back!! That is so weird, but I’m glad you weren’t actually supposed to be banned! Hopefully they can re-activate your account, but if not at least you have a new one to post with! 

linzrunz

Welcome back @babylove2021 We missed you!!  Hope you can get your old account back, but in the meantime I'm glad you're here!

kiki047

*lurking* just here to make sure all is right in the world now that @babylove2021 is here. Whew. I was all indignant this morning when I saw the ban. 

For the record, 'user banned carry on' irks me to no end. No, I will NOT carry on thankyouverymuch. I was ready to riot on @keikilove's behalf. 

asf0613

anyone else getting the book spam post on your bump profile "wall?"
how is this allowed to be a thing?  further, should i ask my OB during my telemed appt today if they want a copy for the waiting room???

inthewoods23

@kiki047 are we going to have another bump strike!!?? I kinda want to regardless because the spamming is annoying, although it thankfully has not ended up on our board much. It's rampant on 1st Tri though.

@asf0613 I thankfully have not gotten that on my wall. It's weird to see people "post" on people's profiles because that's public and can be seen by anyone. It's not a PM. The spammers must have ute goggles and can tell you're totes preggo on CD7 haha

asf0613

@inthewoods23 that must be it!! guess i do need the book after all  !

mvt2003

I hadn't been on 1st Tri in a minute, and wow the spam over there is baddd!!!! 

emeraldduchess

Wow, we're halfway through the week and already used cheesecake and waffles. Muffins or croissants next? Or we could go the savory route and have a pretzel party.

inthewoods23

Muffins sound good to me! Especially if it comes in the morning. It was a nice touch for @legallykate to offer waffles considering the time of day we have to deal with this shit lol.

kitchendisaster

@capnjackharkness I am definitely telling my husband I want a waffle cake for my birthday this year after the gif you posted. Yum! 

inthewoods23

Have you guys noticed that since we started adding the baked goods gifs that TB admins haven't been closing the posts? We've now become so welcoming with our food offerings haha

krash_

Damn I was just about to post some great waffle gifs! I'll do it here because it's really for you guys in the first place:

Peggy's coming in here with their tests:


Them trying to force me to be happy for them that they are totes KTFU:

legallykate

FTR I was not thinking twatwaffle at all, but if the shoe fits... 

inthewoods23

@krash_ I really hate when that happens, especially when what you were going to say was going to be so good! Those gifs are perfect!

photographerwife

I love how she posted “this is a doozy” like her situation is so different from the other peggys who roundabout ask if they are pregnant. 🙄 

inthewoods23

@photographerwife I was expecting some wild story or like, they think they're out, but now X days later they think they have a positive test so they have all this hope. Or like, they've been trying for years and years and want confirmation of a test. It definitely wasn't a doozy.

asf0613

I'M SO MAD I MISSED WAFFLES!! the one day i sleep in

gingermama29

Also don't the BGs usually remove the pee sticks when they close down a threads?
