So does banning mean nothing? He is back and trolling in the gallery. Could someone please explain to me how he is back? Pop...pop..Poppi!

Because a "ban" is for a specific username. I have talked with him and agreed to not ban his new username with his assurance that his previous conduct would not be repeated. Also, one derogatory comment on one gallery image is not "trolling".

So...what you are saying is...I could be banned as Poppi and return as someone else the next day? This perplexes me. Also, what exactly IS trolling? Thanks.

No, you couldn't be banned as Poppi or any other name. :) "Trolling" is generally used to describe someone who systematically puts low ratings on high rated images. In this case, a derogatory comment was posted but no rating.

Okay...thanks...One more ? I kind of made a mistake on the thread because I thought he was banned. Now I feel stupid. Is there a way that we could know if someone who was banned is allowed back, under a slightly different sn? I read he was banned...and, well, I don't know much about that either. Didn't know it was that easy to get reinstated. (To me is is like a horrible banishment, or something.)

I think it is sis. My isp's backbone to the internet, PSINET, got caught in a deal that removed them from accessing certain cable sites. For 4 days, I couldn't access Rosity at all. Was like being in art limbo. Finally, I contacted my ISP directly, and told them if they could not connect with Rosity, I had no use for them, and would pull mine, my daughters, my son's, Aurora's, and our company accounts from their server, and find another IP. Withing 30 minutes, I was able to connect. LOL, money talks and BS...well, you know Was a tough 4 days there. I come here often during work, and evenings, to browse and chat. Being locked out "is" like a terrible banishment.
