This thing about a comment someone made to you is very likely coincidental to the reason you were banned.
Ok, let me tell you what happened.
I was listening to the mike matusow interview only and saw a few hands of postle playing crazy but couldnt tell he cheating from 5 hands.
Yes you can say I was dumb and naive, but I bought that he is innocent from listening to the interview.
Then I jumped on the postle thread and "tried to defend" him because I didnt think it was right to destroy someones name publicly. And everyone was jumping on my throat.
Then there comes this guy with a terrible post, not even attacking me, but he said "u guys are a f mongloids" and I told him he is an idiot and not supposed to use this word, and boom I was
banned. Not the guy! me
So I thought at the moment this is terribly unjust. This could have send me to apeshit tilt, and normally stuff like this does it.
Yes I might be an idiot and yes I shouldnt have trolled the thread, maybe.
But it wasnt my intention to troll, rather than just telling everyone stop hating on postle because I really thought he is innocent.
And he has a daughter, and I couldnt believe that he cheats a dying man(Rex)
(Matusow was always one of my idols, and I belived him)
And the same thing happened to another account, I know I shoudlnt say this becuase I could get banned for that again, but its the truth.
I defended postle, because I really believed him.
Date when the ban is lifted: never, it said.
For me that was devestating, because Im trying to make it in poker, I live and breath poker for the last 4 years. The only other professional I know in person doesnt talk to me anymore.
He is 300lb and hates everything. Poker has ruined his health. Im afraid the same thing will happen to me, if I dont take care and find likeminded peers.
In order for this I need a working account here I thought because this thing here is awesome.
Never experienced anything like this. And if I wasnt so stubborn I wouldnt have returned based on the bad experience.
Peace Dan
ps. the guy that posted the "Im a f loser" on poker reddit, that is my story. Im not the guy but I have the same story.
So the ban was even more devestating, it felt like a punch in the nuts.
