whatsbestforum - what's going on


I thought I could reduce my presence here and participate elsewhere so I registered on this site called whatsbestforum. First it looked harmless. I did not read the about section. 

I made one comment, a speaker recommendation - did not name or mention anyone - just posted a link to a speaker site and I was immediately banned. The site went into an endless loop, with the you are banned message. I can't log off or view anything, the only way I can view it is if I start another private browser. On top of that, a few hours later, the message changed to "Your IP address has been banned."  Like I am some kind of criminal to be kept away with a restraining order and pepper spray.

I wonder if it's an exclusive site or a cult, and if anyone from here is a successful member over there. The about us section is truly disturbing. I am not taking it personally, but it does bother me of course.

... it's possible to live a quiet life here ... if one is aligned with the mods' political views.

I don't know what the moderators' politics are and they don't know anything about mine. Why would they? This is a site for audio and music.

If you can't avoid politics - and it's beginning to look like you can't - then it's likely you'll have further problems here. This site isn't for politics.

I think the moderators do a good job here. If you keep your posts on-topic and about audio and music; if you treat everyone with reasonable respect; and if you avoid politics - the odds are you'll never have any issue with them at all.
