I guess its a definition thing.
If you are in a conversation with the people who own the forum, and asked to comply, and your reaction is no... then in my mind thats volunteering.
But there were a few who were banned with no conversation.
Sorry if you are unhappy here. I obviously havent been around much either. But then, we arent the ones to make that judgement.
Oh and I love the reference to the other forum being very Sombre. It is very Sombre, altho not at all sombre of course
