Can one still post on DP if status shows 'banned'

Something I been wanting to ask.

Can one still post on DP if their status (below the nickname) shows 'banned'?

If yes, what's the point of 'banning'. Just curious.

 

Banned means banned. You can't use the forum.

 

There's a VB Bug which can make a normal member - banned (just usertitle and color) OR a real banned member to allow to post.

Have a look at the above thread. The latest post is just hours ago. I have nothing against 'Ash1' but his status shows banned and it sets me wondering.

 

If its a VB bug then why its only with DP not with any other forum ??

 

And you checked all other VB forums ?

yes .. m using vb forum frm past 6 years !!! and never got banned like that ... and never hrd like that in any forum instead of DP.

 

No need to shout "!!!!"

Few features of DP programmed by Shawn,maybe that cause this problem ,else DP have a huge database which can also cause some problem or glitch ...

If you are Banned you cannot use this Forum.

 

As far as i know when you are banned you can't even use the forum

 

Know what banned means? It means you can no longer use this forum.

 

You can access the forum if you are banend the same way people can access you dont have an account.

Unless you have the vb bug that is

 

Yes, you can still post if you're "banned" but not really banned. There's apparently a VB bug that shows someone banned when they have been unbanned.

I've actually seen a few people post when they were meant to be banned

 

Banned members can not post I think.

 

Banned mean banned. No priviliges of a normal user. And I also wonder about the thread you pointed of "Ash1".

 

I guess there was some vbulletin hack for this.... but yeah i am sure at dp its just not there..
