Don't be silly.

So can we find out the reason why he was banned?

Let me ask you this, why would he be banned for talking about nadal? There is only one rafa fan mod. Plenty of people including myself talk about Rafa all the time on the forum. Anybody banned gets labored over in discussion with all the mods.

Well it would be nice to have him back.

Thank you for trying to answer my question, I wasn't really expecting an answer. BTW we have a saying in Serbian: :I was not born yesterday" if that makes any sense to you. :D

Sorry, but I like Fiero so it is only natural for me to come to his defense. Anyway it is the board's loss as he is entertaining and knows a lot about tennis.:clap

We like Fiero. His ban is not permanent. We hope he comes back, even the best posters can overstep their bounds sometimes and might need a break.

Talking about missing posters, I have not seen Iona around for a long time, despite the trials and tribulations of Andy. Or, may be she is upset that Andy is getting married to someone else. ;)

What happened to SiSi, he is remaining silent also despite back to back good performances by Simona? Hope he is busy repenting for his sins like Kieran. ;)

The last time Djokovic had a multiple slam year was 2011.
The last time Nadal had a multiple slam year was 2013.
Djokovic lost his pet slam in 2014.
Nadal has won his pet slam for the last 5 years.
I'm trying to find a sign that Djokovic will win more slams than Nadal in the coming years, but there just isn't one.

"Pet slam?" LOL. That's funny. I guess the 3 of them do have their "pets". Although Roger had 2 "pets" for 5 years straight plus 3 near misses at the US Open and 1 at Wimbledon. I can see Djokovic winning maybe another 4 Slams. The question is - will he ever win the French? Frankly if Nadal doesn't win the French this year I'm ready to stick a fork in him.

A public forum is not where we should be discussing someone's status. It hijacks the thread and causes disruption. If anyone wants to know if someone is permanently banned or just on a time-out, they should pm a mod or admin. While we will tell you the status of the poster, we will not divulge specifics on the reason.

This isn't just for Billie, but for everyone. I'm responding to her post because it's the most recent one posing the question.

I'm a total square then, if everybody is getting banned and I'm knelt down in the confessional, even though I'm sweet as pie. Po' Fiero, me old mucker, banned, but I'm glad you're back, mate, you borrowed some exclamation marks off me and left me using this ¦ instead¦¦¦ :p

Kieran, Welcome back. I thought you were serving a silent ban until someone mentioned Lent stuff.
Hope you had enough time to repent for all your sins. ;)

I prolly could have done with a few more years, but I lied about them and got out quick. :snicker

Thanks for the welcome, seems like we're heading into the crux of things right now, doom or glory, greatness or foul, a rake of slams and MS titles waiting to be plucked from the tree. And Rafa heading into it all looking like a member of "the rest..." ;)
