Hey,

I was wondering why howard_hopkinso was banned (I think that's his name).

He was EXTREMELY helpful in this forum, with 25,000+ posts. Such as this (http://www.techspot.com/vb/topic51365.html), which Julio supposidly wrote.

Or is it just for safety?

Sorry to seem stupid, but he was great! (and I hav't been on for a while...)

Regards.

Also, I'm sure he didn't get hacked or someone used his account (seeing as he probably has the safest computer in the forum). And I did see this thread here (http://www.techspot.com/vb/topic98089.html), but it doesn't help.

This has been discussed way to many times. Use the search feature so that you don't just create ANOTHER useless topic.

I am not trying to be a jerk or anything, it just gets so annoying.

Now just wait to get locked.

I did, it came up with crap, non-related.

Plus, if you read my post, it explains that the other post doesn't help at all.

mopar is right. We had about 30 of these threads a long time ago and we were tired of them then (most got merged). Everytime this topic dies someone has to come and post about it. Stop. We don't have to explain to the entire forum every time someone is banned anyway.
