yepppp ken is right
@CPT. Is it okay for me to post this? If not, go ahead and delete it. I thought the banned members might want to see it.
This thread was on SF.

I was wondering the same thing. Haven't seen anything from Dvandentop either.

Hey gang,
I’ll lightly touch on this topic. The members mentioned in this post have not been banned.
Unfortunately, there were a few members that had their accounts closed. There are also some members that no longer post here because of it, and there are some members that are taking a break.
After 10 months of trying to let things work itself out and bring peace to the forum, we were hit with a situation a month ago. As much as we tried to have faith & hope in some, it was time to face the harsh reality that we had to make very tough decisions. These decisions were tough because it involved several of our friends. That’s never an easy thing. But a month ago, it was made clear to us how things stood and something needed to be done.
I know this is very upsetting for a lot of people. I assure you that we share the same sadness and wish we had never been put in that position. Deb & I don’t just wake up one day and say, hey, let’s ban someone today. There are enough members here that have been around long enough to know that about us. However it is time to move forward. We held on longer than we probably should have. To be honest, it’s been a relief to finally come onto the boards without the e-mails, PMs, etc from everything. I can log in and enjoy the forum for what is was meant for. Yes, I had pulled down any topic started regarding the situation. It was for selfish reasons. We just needed a moment to chill and enjoy the break from it all. After 10 months, we owed it to ourselves.
I’m sorry if some don’t understand. There’s a lot of it I will never understand myself. We have no plans from here on in to rehash any of it, out of respect for everyone and their friends. It’s put behind us now, and for that reason, I will lock this topic so it doesn’t turn into a mess from people jumping out of the woodwork to take stabs at us. Those days are over with.
With that being said, we really want to thank everyone who stuck with us through thick and thin. Moderating is a tough job, especially when friends are involved. We appreciate all of your contributions past, present and future. We look forward to fun things ahead & to meeting some of the new faces coming out to the M&Gs.
Happy Posting & Big Wins!!!
XO
Joey & Deb
PS – We’re always available via PM.
It looks like it is time for me to make my exit from that site. This is my new only home.
How does this sound for a parting speech? I am open to suggestions. Do you think that they will delete it?
Parting is such sweet sorrow. After years of fun and entertainment, I have decided to find a new home.
Thank you to all that have become my friends. If you ever want to contact me, you can find me on Facebook under Sue Brubaker Stone.
I will miss sharing my low rolling stories here. Maybe we will meet again one day.
Me too, Suze! ( this was to your post about this being your new only home)
I was waiting for Oleslotguy (Oldslotguy) to get here. Now that he is here, I can leave the other one. I sure wish Jesterpete would find us here. And there are others I will miss, too.
Sounds good Suze! I don't mind you posting that here. I'm happy they addressed it as nothing should be that taboo. It's unfortunate on how everything happened, no doubt, but we move on in our own way.
I have posted it. Let's see if they take it down.
I am already getting very nice responses. They are confused about why I am leaving. I hope they Facebook me.
For those who were banned with no notice, they didn't have that opportunity to let their SF friends know they were leaving. Glad you can.
Joey's first paragraph is a lie. I never had the chance to ask him to close my account. He beat me to it. Not dwelling on it. I love it here!
Well, that didn't take long. They have removed my post. I would like to tell my friends goodbye! Damn it.
Nice parting post Suze, I hope the other SF members get to see it, but I'm about 97% sure it will be taken down.
We must have posted at the same time. I knew they would remove it! Too bad you couldn't have pm'd some of your friends first :( Also, I think a good time to post something like this is very early morning when Deb is still asleep California time and Joey is not up yet either. At least a few people might get to see it before they take it down :)
I just got this personal message. Should I respond?
Hi Suze
Just wanted to let you know that we pulled your goodbye thread. We are not allowing any of those threads to be posted on here due to leaving for another forum. Creates too much drama. Very sorry. Thank you for your participation throughout the years, we have enjoyed you VERY much and you will be missed. Please do not take this personally, as we have done this with many.
Take care,
Deb

@Suze1000 your profile doesn't show you banned. . .yet :)
Suze, I don't think you should worry about responding. Your post was nice and sweet and I don't really see that it would have caused drama. Questions maybe but not drama. You did not say where you were going or why and didn't say anything bad about the SF just simply that you were moving on.
It was taking up too much time trying to go between forums. I have made my choice, and the people on this forum are my choice. I was beginning to feel like a hypocrite, every time I posted there.
I just logged in. I think I am not banned.
I tried to respond to Suze's post, there were no responses yet. Then i got invalid thread/link. Are you banned now?
I was banned because I liked a post on BD private FB page! Damn Bannhammer HHH

Suze you drew too much attention to yourself by starting a new thread. Perhaps you should have given subtle hints like @zeus did with his suitcase avatar or @Laurie's Goodbye avatar. I put my declaration of self-banned in the signature area & the location area.
This way when people wonder where you went they have a clue that it is no longer involving Slot fanatics. It's only a matter of time when the crickets get so loud over there due to the post nazis showing their true colors. The people who i want to associate with are here & rest will be arriving sooner than later if they are told where the cool kids are !!!
I was merely speculating about you being banned. I did not mean to startle you and I apologize if I did. It is very childish and irresponsible on their part to take your thread down because you did not mention moving to another forum and you did not have anything bad to say about them. It does clearly point out that they have nothing better to do than to come over here or send their moles and their spies over here and keep track of who is posting over here now. I do not think there is anything else they can do to slow this forum down at this point and it frustrates the hell out of them.
I think it was just wrong to delete Suze's message. It did not mention where she was going and what difference does it make if she was going here, to MSB or LasVegas4Ever. She decided she wanted one board and posted a respectful message so her friends can contact her on FB. I'm just SMH, does not make sense to me.
This is the type of BS many of us have been dealing with since this fall!! Of course it never is their fault, so glad to be done over there!!

Hi seemoreroyals,
There is no need for an apology. I was just kind of shocked when my thread was gone. I thought I was banned at that point. You did not startle me at all. It is all kind of amazing to me. I think it is strange that we are not allowed to mention any other forums. It is kind of like Voldemort. "The forum who cannot be named!"
