I cannot log on to any of the boards on this site besides the few SEC boards. I can view topics but don't see the "new" indicator next to threads and I see ads in the middle of threads. I hit the "sign In" tab and go through the process but it kicks me back to the board and I am not logged in.

If I am banned it is because I was trying to defend LSU's coach by pointing out the inefficiencies of the Texas coach. There must be a moderator on the site that is a huge Tom Herman fan.

What the heck does that mean?

So I am banned?

I did send an email the other day to email address in the "contact us" tab at the bottom. I just told them I could not login and asked if they could help me fix the problem. At the time it didn't even cross my mind that I may be banned. But it's been a couple days and the problem has not been corrected - I cannot login. I never got a return email either.

Do you get any kind of notice when you are banned?

It means this is a Help Board topic, not a OT Board topic

I would defer to Hugo on this one, he seems well versed on the inner workings of tRant when it comes to bans.

I've never been banned so I don't know. I wish I could be more help. That's a pretty weak reason to be banned though.

I think a ban is a total thing. You shouldn't be able to log into anything. At least my suspensions have been. Maybe they've changed it.

And I seriously doubt that there are any mods that favor a Texas HC over anything LSU.

I've never been banned, but I asked this question once, and someone responded there was a message when you attempted to log in. Don't know if that's true or not.

I got warnings when I logged in before I got suspended/banned. But once I got suspended, I was just placed in TD/SECR purgatory.

Okay, thanks guys. I've been here a while and if I am banned it will be my first time. I'll copy my OP and post it on the Help Board. I had thought I had gone there the first day this happened and couldn't log in or was logged in there either. It looks like I can now.

I really hate to admit when I'm dumb, but I have no idea what RA means. I have seen it before in threads but didn't really look into it to it and have never seen it explained.

Request Admin. It's a button you press to get a mods attention

Ha, I saw a post on the SEC Rant where they were talking about posts on the LSU-Rant. A poster said they had been banned from there for a while and he had no idea why. That's what got me to thinking that I may be banned also.

Oh crap, I already made a new thread over there. Should I still do a request?

Surely, you aren't banned. It doesn't sound like you did anything wrong

Nah. Just let them use that one. It's no big deal.

Look at the bottom of each of your posts

First Button = Reply
Second Button = Request Administrator (RA)

Go to your OP and [CLICK] RA then hit I think move topic or wrong board

I get a response to my post on the help board saying I was banned (don't know if is a moderator or not) and told to check my PM. Unlike RA, I know what PM means but have no idea how to check a PM. I always assumed it would go to your email account if you got a PM.

ETA
This is assuming PM means private message.
