The mods may have politely asked you to not talk American politics (though this is hearsay), but as far as I know no one has banned or threatened to ban you.
It's not that simple, actually. People like me risk to be banned for their ideals, not because they'are breaking the forum rules (infact i have never broken any rule, never insulted anyone). The ableton mods have received quite a few complaints regarding the posts I make on the forum. Because of my strong ideals and the way I express myself, that is too "free" and nonconform. That is why some impressionable people could feel insulted. For instance, once Loopstationzebra (among other harsh offences) called me "fucking mong", because I wrote Tesla was a socialist (here in italy he is known as a socialist). Well, guess? He was not banned. But I was warned by the forum mods because of my reply ("in USA you don't even know he was socialist?"). Because, they said, this could imply that US citizens are generally ignorant (???!!!!). That is why i am monitored and everything I write here could me misunderstood. Things such as provocative humor, irony etc. transmit very badly here. I write "justice" and people understand "trolling", i write "no war" and some users understand "antiamerican bigot", etc. So they'll be forced to ban me, even if i have never broken any rule. If i will be banned it is just for my "uncomfortable" ideals. That is why i avoid talking about politics.
Nah, you just refuse to listen to any music that isn't on the radio and have probably never read a single serious study of any musical subject. Plus you have the uncanny
inability to express more than a couple of mantras without resorting to YouTube videos and quotes from others. Have any original thoughts of your own?
And no, the things you say aren't uncomfortable. In fact the reason people around here don't like you has less to do with
what you say and more to do with
how you say it. At the end of the day no one around really cares what you think, and honestly we probably don't care much what each other (the regulars) think either. This is a place to have some fun and banter. But when it gets annoying (e.g. when you post) then this place isn't fun anymore and it's no longer The Lounge, but rather something akin to going to a dentist.
One more time: It has less to do with the substance of what you say than it does the way you say it and the fact that you are a
socially annoying person online. You are a nuisance because you make this place less enjoyable to frequent.
If The Lounge were a party, you would be the guy no one wants to talk to.
Capisce?
After a while i discovered the same PH forum mod who banned me in the PH forum writes on KVR forum, too: 1+1=2. Now, every time i try to connect to KVR i get this menace message: 
Thanks, for me is a high praise!
