    I don't know Waller and even if I did no bannings are discussed on the forum.

    I missed most of the posting through the day today but I'm getting a gist of what has happened today from what is left.

    I will say that all posts made by a member 'hide' or 'go invis' if the member either self excludes or close their account, which means to say that just because his posts have disappeared it does not mean he has necessarily been banned.

    Going to leave this thread open for now but will be on the look out for any overspill from whatever happened before.

    Word is that he self-excluded himself for a few months.

    Ok, Yeah I understand the rules about not discussing bans. Would just like to know if he has been banned as he is a forum great imo :)

    If any inappropriate posts are made then I understand your need to close the thread. Cheers

    yeh he said he asked for himself to be banned because the forum is like Sky Vegas, if it's there he will use it even though he doesn't want to. 

    Dno if it's true or not, maybe he was actually banned and trying to spare his own blushes, either way it's mental and prob the most stoooooopid of all the stoooooopid things he's done.

    gl him.

    WOW....serious? Bit out of the blue. Did he blow his roll?

    Never thought I'd say this but I will miss his posts, even the brags.

    He put something on this morning but that's disappeared now too. I know that he was getting some, shall we say, polarised views last night on another thread he'd started which mentioned the end of his mtt challenge. Hope he's ok and it doesn't send him off kilter.Can someone contact him seperately, say email, as he has been known to start hitting the roulette machines etc.

    Ah right, so he has "self excluded" from the forum only but will still be found on the tables?

    Don't wanna start any malicious posting and I've never been one to gossip (much) but why did he end his challenge.

    And yeah +1 prof hope he is ok....I like the donk

    I don't personally think he started the challenge with any intentions to complete it. It was probably a thread to brag that he has £3.5k in his account.

    I hear ya.

    All I know is that donk comes across as a "flash in the pan" kinda guy and if he has indeed self excluded then he will regret it in the next few days.....prob regretting it already

    FWIW On his profile page it says this;

    "This community member's page is currently being reviewed by the editors."

    A number of other players who have been banned recently have exactly the same statement on their profile pages.

    I did reply on his post this morning suggesting nicely that he maybe should take a break from posting to concentrate on his game.
    Maybe he took my advice???

     Yea i saw it Vespa but he wouldn't take offence at that. It was put in an acceptable, non-aggressive way. I got the impression that he felt a bit picked on at times. Mind he didn't really help himself at times, did he? I do hope he's ok though as i get the feeling that poker and the forum are a big thing in his life. The forum would certainly be a less 'active' place if IDCU isn't on it.

    I certainly hope he didn't take offence as i've got nothing against the guy myself, just thought he should take a break.
    Yeh the forum will be a less active place without him.
    Wonder who's next to put their head above the parapet !

    Just spoken to him on one of his tables.

    He is "sick of the haters" and has self excluded from the forum for 3 mnths

    I told him the "haters" are def in the minority and he should grow some balls and thicker skin and come back in 3mnths.

    LONG LIVE THE DONK!

    How do you self exclude yourself from the forum only? Is it even possible?

    I reckon he got banned.

    Ask an Admin/Mod to 'ban' you.

    I love forums. Such drama!

    My thoughts exactly. I reckon if you did self exclude it wouldnt delete all old posts either, dunno tho.

    EDIT: or do it NoseyBonks way which would delete posts lol.

    If we were to be technical then that wouldn't be 'self' exclusion as somebody else would be excluding you ;)

    I will openly admit I gave him a hard time lol but we had good banter and I didn't give him any worse than he gave me. I'm pretty sure he doesn't take my comments to heart... hope the big baby is reading this... lol

    Jokes :p

    But nah, pretty stupid to self exclude imo, just have a bit of discipline. You seem to have found some discipline in your game, start using it in other aspects of your life.

    He's just massively paranoid and overly defensive, why u think he's such a nit and only plays the nuts.

    He once folded QQ to a 15x reshove coz he thought he was 'flipping at best'   ;)

    Nice bloke off the table in my experience, overly enthusiastic sometimes and massively touchy also, hope if his ban is self imposed sky make him sit out for a good 6 weeks at least. Could learn alot from it.

    Anyway, as with others, I reckon this thread shud maybe be closed too as the OP has got his answer. 

    He's a massive wally but that's all he is, no need to go any further than that, esp when he can't reply. 

    gg donk, cya back in a few months!
