IS THERE REALLY ANY POINT IN HAVING A FOR SALE SECTION?????? CHEERS GEORGE[/quote] Q: how do you turn a bass player into a millionaire? A: start him off with a billion!! none of 'em have got any cash.......

ps - any qustions for Marcus may be passed on, although I can't promise anything.

more than 3000 hits though must have been slightly entertaining!!

PERSONALLY, i don't see what the problem is because you were only having a laugh but my point is that if admin want to over-react so badly, and feel that you committed such an HORRID crime, then why not punish you in a manner that fits the over-reaction? Maybe because they feel guilty for over-reacting and spoiling the fun? P.s. (The deep underlying sarcasm in my previous post was clearly lost in translation :S sorry!)[/quote] no problem - but Marcus has gone now. I lost the vibe!! RIP

[quote name='skej21' post='929361' date='Aug 19 2010, 08:48 AM']I fail to see how the admin can justify this decision. If that is the case and we have a liar amongst our ranks, why let Shonks continue with ANY form of account on here? Surely both accounts should be suspended/removed because if this person thinks they can lie and fool admin, they aren't going to think twice about lying to us (and possibly ripping people off via sales etc.) Should you not be removing the individual rather than the additional account, to protect honest users in this forum? and as this is not the case, why has Basschat failed to enforce a fair and equal punishment to both account users?[/quote] blimey - hung drawn and flippin quartered. ok, ok ok, twas me - I was having a larf - soooo anal ---- lighten up - its only 4 strings and a plank of wood.... ,....oh...now I'm gonna rip everyone off...... bann me and Marcus then............UP YOURS ...wiv knobs on.... do you know??? its only rock an roll..!!!! zlappiddy! zlapp! zlapp! boing! ah fank yoos wun unt all - ahll neffer darken yur durstep agen. yoos all be zo sorry ah neffa shard ma knowlej wid you all - now yoos all stay in de rutt cos deers no mmoor luv heer god bless ya all - ah still allwayz loov yas all rearguardless ! i fank yoo!

[quote name='flyfisher' post='929241' date='Aug 18 2010, 11:43 PM']Just out of interest, how can anyone be sure that someone has two accounts? I know IP addresses are often used but they are not particularly reliable as few people get fixed IP adresses from their ISP and a dynamic IP address can be easily changed - and, indeed, re-issued to someone else. Also, IP tracking is not much use if people have access to more than one PC (on a different router, obviously), e.g. work and home. Just curious.[/quote] exactly!! 's what I tried to tell 'em

[quote name='Johngh' post='929200' date='Aug 18 2010, 10:49 PM']Nobody is saying it wasn't "good banter" But it was good banter by a member who already had an account. If we let one member have two accounts then everybody is at it and using them to snipe at members who have flamed them in threads, then it gets out of hand etc. It's as simple as that.[/quote] blow out the other guy - keep Marcus!!

[quote name='EBS_freak' post='928866' date='Aug 18 2010, 06:01 PM']It's not is it? The Marcus thing was just a good bit of banter wasn't it?[/quote] dont have to make it a precedent, but Marcus is an obvious a star, albeit controversial one. Please reinstate him!! some people, a minority I'm sure, found it unfunny, but most of us were on the floor crying for a nurse! besides, I don't think you should ban what is probably the best 'bussist' you've ever had here, and so willing to share his knowledge too...its a crime! zzlapp!

[quote name='Shonks' post='928718' date='Aug 18 2010, 03:15 PM']shame! - but your not forced to read the threads[/quote]

[quote name='Sonic_Groove' post='928631' date='Aug 18 2010, 01:43 PM']I am sure there are more than just me who did not find it funny at all! Brendan[/quote] shame!

[quote name='Pete Academy' post='928035' date='Aug 17 2010, 09:14 PM']Rich, you know how to get round us. I give up. [/quote] eat the puppies - !!

[quote name='Pete Academy' post='927921' date='Aug 17 2010, 07:41 PM']You have to admit it was funny. Don't you? [/quote] t'was...want more! personally I'm a better player for it - lots more practising and my zlappink is becoming fearsome!

[quote name='Rich' post='927655' date='Aug 17 2010, 03:34 PM']I'm not admin, sweetie, I'm just a mod.[/quote] no need for rhyming slang! sweetie? I'm not gay dear! ...but my boyfriend is! how very dare you!!

[quote name='Rich' post='927469' date='Aug 17 2010, 12:35 PM'][/quote] mmm....admin...see what I mean! -_-

i know Marcus has been suspended because admin thought Marcus was me ( if only ) they said I could only have one registration here. Because i live in a community situation, Marcus must have used my PC, and they firmly believe its me. No one here will admit to being Marcus. I said to admin if they really believe that, then I prefer to sacrifice my account as Marcus is so popular and with me too. But they blew him out and kept me. I would like to ask you all to keep this thread going if you want the best zlappist to return so admin can see the error of there ways. He spiritually uplifted us all,whether he was serious or just a joke, it was all very positive! long live the best zlappist on the site - teacher and guru of the bass!!

unfortunately the guys on the site deemed it nesaccary to susspend Marcus from the site!! shame we wont be hearing from the master again....fun while it lasted. We bow to the dictatorship!!

[quote name='blackmn90' post='926923' date='Aug 16 2010, 09:02 PM']Wouldnt the best buss gitar zlapper ever have lots of gigs and rehearsals to be getting to instead off letting us inferior buss gitar zlappers know that we are indeed no competition. Actually instead of being on here so much im going to practice and challenge you to a zlapp off![/quote] there aint no gigs no matter how good you are!!...hahaha! thats why all the top guys are playing the west end shows or doin weddings for pennies
