Who's Alex Jones BTW?
Obviously I'm not paying enough attention to bull**** media these days.
exacty my question. guess it has something to do with that lying british clown who was kicked out of his own for fabricating the story and now is a big loud mouth on CNN.
i don't know if he or cnn are bigger idiots
The bigger idiot here, by a mile, is Alex Jones.

Yeah, sorry DP356, I disagree. Dan Rather/Tom Brokaw/name 100 news reporters spent DEACADES on camera and never came across as the imbecile that Alex Jones is.
Stop defending or excusing him. (at this point I'm not sure which it is, but you've done it twice). He is a special breed, like Limbaugh (remember the Michael J Fox brew-haha). They are not entertainers by the way. They are hack pseudo journalists radio idiots.
Alex Jones is not a politician either. He finds SSRIs to be "mass murder pills" and is just as deluded regarding the state of the nation and world. He "wants" Piers Morgan deported for being a RED COAT?
ARE YOU ****ING KIDDING ME?!?!?!?!?! He stands on a 2nd amendment soapbox, and wants someone deported for exercising the 1st amendment?
INCREDULOUS.
Dare I think PGG would even think this dude is off the ****ing deep end!!!
IDIOT.

Hoyden,
Why do u always misinterpret what I say when it comes to guns?
Come on. I never JUSTIFIED piers Morgan in Any way. I compared their foibles and found joneses to be much more significant. No justifying ever done.

If I understand correctly, when your account is "On hold" it is a couple of weeks vacation. I have not seen anyone come back from being banned. I guess it is possible to set up another account, but I think banned is permanent. Is that correct?
Short version: bans don't get reversed, unless the ban itself was an April Fools joke.
Banned is banned. New accounts are automatically closed. Post-holds, infractions, and warnings are, well, warnings. Except for automatic insta-bans reserved for new account trolls and spammers, nobody gets a ban without multiple warnings, usually over an extended period of time. So an actual ban is a ban, not a super-duper double-secret second-tier warning.
Sometimes it takes the mod staff some time to notice or be sure a new account is a person who was previously banned. Sometimes those new accounts are even behaving themselves, and sometimes when these new accounts get banned, there doesn't appear to be any reason to the casual observer. Occasionally people will post in those threads wondering why someone got banned, and of course because of the privacy policy we don't comment. It's usually a safe bet that if someone gets banned for no apparent reason, it's because they were reincarnates of a previously banned user, and it just took us a while to figure it out.
So banned is banned. Except. Rarely, after a period of time, some previously banned people come back with new accounts and don't repeat the ban-worthy behavior. If they slide under the radar and we don't notice right away, and they string together a few months of born-again good citizenship before we do notice ... sometimes we let it go. While there's no telling how many people actually return with a totally different persona and never trip any flags, I suspect it's rare because generally people are what they are, and if they made it to the ban point in the first place, it's because they're pretty resilient TOS-ignorers.
Short version: bans don't get reversed, unless the ban itself was an April Fools joke.

A great pleasure to see Piers creamed
