Losing Access to a Topic

I lost access to a topic where I posted yesterday. I suspect new user Antoine is the culprit, because he is quick to sling insults and seems eager to troll our community. Nonetheless, I cannot fathom how I was knocked off of a topic. “Best Tie Down Ever” is the topic if I remember correctly. Could someone check this out for me please?

That was me. I am putting anything Antoine/Awesomewash guy responds to in the lounge until @Chris can get him booted again. I’ll move it back for you but who knows what troll will do.

I think it would be more appropriate to simply flag any replies that he makes that are meant to derail the conversation as “inappropriate”. That’ll hide the comment from view, and get the attention of the admins much faster. I’ve even re-flagged some of his comments that were already flagged.

Will do. I was mainly trying to hide the ones with vulgarity from the general public. Hopefully an admin @JessicaPWR or someone will boot him soon

Where do I find the lounge? I’m in the mood to flag a few more posts, lol…

Mystery solved. I don’t get what people gain from trolling. How can one gain pleasure from inflaming with bombast? ANYWAY, I’m all for booting those who are divisive and prone to attacking. We are here to learn and teach, and for camaraderie. These trolls ruin the experience for the rest of us.

Huh. I must not have enough site privileges. These are all the topics visible to me:

Yea he’s something else!

Somehow I’ve lost access to the lounge, aa privilege available to association members if memory serves. I don’t really understand. I USED to have access. I’m startin’ to feel like the red-headed step child here.

Were you away from the forum for awhile? Because I think some of the trust levels on this new platform are based on forum activity. I’m a PWRA member, have access to the private forum, but can’t see the Lounge at all. But I was away from posting for a couple months. I think that set my trust level back to near newbie status :unamused:

HMMM. WELL, ain’t THAT a kick in the pants!

Guess Lounge privileges will soon be restored. Just earned this badge several minutes ago.

You are at Trust Level 3 - you should be able to see the lounge now.

Man did it get crazy in here this weekend…

So what exactly happened?

The guy I deleted had 4 account s tied to his IP address. I deleted all of them from what I can see.

he sure didn’t like me!

Just some guy who was determined to cause problems on a random pressure washing forum. I don’t get it either…

Are you able to tell where that IP comes from? City State?

Yep I can see that data in the backend.

Does he even own a PW business?
