I have a question to FReepers out there,and also the Moderators.
I was recently suspended from posting for several days, TWICE for the reason that I was posting the article of authors who are banned from this site.
Being suspended means you cannot even send a message to the moderator, so I was unable to ask for clarification. Had I been allowed to send a message, I would at least know the name of the author whose article was not welcome.
I learned that the article of one such writer -- C. Edmund Wright ( who used to be a poster here), who writes for the American Thinker, is not welcome in this site. All well and good, I will no longer post his articles here.
My question is this -- WHICH OTHER AUTHOR(s) is/are banned from this site? I certainly do not want to be suspended again for not knowing who is unwelcome?
Is there a link somewhere in FR that gives a list of authors who are not welcome?
Thanks very much in advance for your information.
That seems silly. If the article is legitimate, within the scope of allowable discussions, and isn’t a copyright issue, why should we not be allowed to post it.
Find some C. Edmund Wrong posts from the election and you will see why.
Lawrence Auster, but since he died I dunno if that makes any difference.

That was my question too...
All I know is this, I posted an article by C. Edmund Wright of the American Thinker and was suspended for a day.
This was the offending article:
http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2018/01/trump_versus_bannon_is_trump_right.html
I was suspended again with the reason POSTING AN ARTICLE FROM A BANNED AUTHOR ( no name was provided ) two days ago and was only reinstated now.
I am puzzled as to who is/are unwelcome. That is why I asked this question.
OK, is AllahPundit of Hotair allowed here?
Generally speaking, anything from crackpot sites is not welcome. Most people here can recognize what is and what is not appropriate.

That out of the way, my personal pet peeve is that POLITICO articles need to be posted in Bloggers, they can't be posted as news. It's ridiculous to fill out the entire article submission page and get a "POLITICO must be in Bloggers & Personal" message. Why POLITICO, specifically? It's trashy, sure, but then so is The Washington Post and we can post that as news.
It's been a long time since I've posted anything from POLITICO, so maybe it's changed back to normal, but still.
I know about his posts, I remember hearing about when he got the ZOT.
However, if the article he wrote is legitimate for discussion, I don’t see how it is an issue. It isn’t like he is posting or commenting on it. Who cares who the author is. We post CNN and NYT articles.
C. Edmund Wright is a jerk
See Edmund write. Write, Edmund, write.
You're too kind.
Please donate.
Asher....pretty sure he’s banned.
I have no idea about AllahPundit.
VDare I know is banned...a shame in my opinion but since I don’t own FR no one is asking for my advice. Good judgement on their part.
Nothing C. Wrong writes is worthy of discussion.
