It would seam that Napoleand is banned :shock:
Is this the case? I want to know because he was a very useful member (which can also be said about the thing between my legs, wayhey)
I may have missed something but does anyone know the situation.

How rude.
I used my vote on the oposite as you're probably P_tucker or pseudonym.

He added a lot to the forum.
It was this one. Ended up being locked by the admins maybe thats why you couldnt find it, i had to trawl my own posts to find it.

awesome thanks mate, BBC News will have to go on mute for a moment.
OK, so he insulted Pseudonym with offensive language, but given the situation who wouldn't have reacted in the same way. The guy had an horrific crash and was insulted by some keyboard-warriors for 'over-reacting' and being a "cry baby". IMO, it was them that should have been banned. This guy's life has been turned upside down and some pr*cks on here can;t show a little sympathy? FFS.

to be fair, I wasn't insulted by what he said - this is only the internet, after all. Not worth getting upset about what is typed onto a computer screen by someone you've never met.
According to Jeff Jones - who closed the thread - the guy actually 'asked' to be removed/deleted, which sounds a bit dramatic. If he is indeed back on the forum now under a new username, perhaps he could clarify the situation himself.
As for whether he was banned fairly or not I think he was wound up and some of the things said towards him were out of order and they did rile a response, which does seem to be what the forumer that was involved likes to do.
Personally if he is back under a new name, which I hope he is, I hope he keeps quiet and just gets on with being a useful member of the forum as he doesn't need to explain himself to anyone not least the one who effectively got him banned in the first place.

ok, did you miss the bit where Jeff said that he had asked for his account to be deleted..? Sounds like the decision was his and nobody else's. But don't let clarity get in the way of your own confusion....

I like your thinking Brian, but no - it's not the case. No disrespect to the fella, but he's a bit heftier than me....
I suppose we are linked though, in the sense that his complaining about his accident was the main resaon I signed up here in the first place.
For one, I'm pleased NapD is back on the bike and enjoying it. His departure from these boards, for whatever reason, was obviously at a low point, and I think there may be times when it would help to stand back from "well, it's the internet, innit?" approach and remember that there are fragile human beings at the keyboards working through their troubles.
You didn't cause the crash, did you?
no - that wasn't me either... :P
Tend to agree here. Just another MAMIL, no?
Try WeightWeenies for rich guys with expensive bikes who like to post loads of pictures of them. (Although there is actually some genuinely useful and innovative stuff to be found on WW).
Yes I have.
I also have a dictionary.
Last time I checked (even prior to him selling off most of his bike equipment), he had pretty bog standard bikes.
I could take him or leave him to be honest and am pretty certain he would say the same about me. I took against him early on because of his seemingly self appointed 'leader of the forum' position. However, I thought everyone else was practically in love with him.
As it happens, my opinion very much softened towards him (though his probably not towards me as I would still take any opportunity to try and wind him up I could). Not that he should give a toss what I think but I'm sure he was/is a pretty sound guy.
His accident and subsequent treatment seemed unduly harsh.
I hope things have got a bit better for him.
