Folks get zotted or suspended for all kinds of reasons.
Some are not apparent because really offensive posts get removed.

Not everybody zotted gets it for being a dem operative or a troll.

Last time I was suspended (during the last election returns, that was a bummer)
I got it for making sport of some talk radio guy, I invented
a story on a thread about whatever yapper getting arrested
for some kind of embarrassing thing and then admitted I made
it up and that I was “just yanking your chain”.

Boom, suspended for a week. Reason?

“You’re not the only one that can yank chains.”

I saw the irony, if not the humor.

And that is at the heart of this thread!

I STRONGLY believe this zotting business has gotten WAY WAY out of hand! In fact, things were far better before anyone ever heard of "the zot" IMHO!

Sounds as if the mod was having a very bad day.

Wrong place, wrong time, Gunner.

FWIW, LOL! Good one.

Well, at least you didn't blog about it. ;)

Your posts are usually so ‘in’ and cryptic I never know what the heck you’re talking about.

All I know about you is that your main purpose in life is to track down blog pimps.
