The official petition site is down, so this post will act as a petition.

Addressed to Staff of Special Reserve:

"www.gameaday.co.uk is a site intended for you to win games/dvd's for your contributions to the forums/site in general in the form of review/topical submission. Yesterday, a user named Monkey_Man posted a topic which included HTML on the forums, and over 5 offenders proceeded to post pages of spam HTML topics. Monkey_Man was banned, and many feel this was unjustly, as he simply proved that HTML was usable, he didn't spam up the forums. If you feel that he was unjustly banned, please leave a signature and comment below."

Thank you.
The Undersigned.

Please sign below if you think that Monkey Man should be un-banned.

Nope. Turbonutter did it a long, long time ago. Probably before he even joined the forums. I don't remember him being there anyway.

I didnt really know this monkey guy, Ive seen him around but dont have an opinion of him. So I cant really say if he should be banned or not.

He is a monkey so cant be that bad, cause monkeys are the best!

Will hear what SR have to say on the subject tomorrow hopefully. Although that brad guy was here today, as he posted in my topic.

I'm not sure exactly what M_M did, putting html in the topic titles is what I seen and he only did it a few times as far as I seen. The way I see it is that he just found a way of doing something that not many knew you could do. He may have started it but some others also did it too. I don't see anything in the rules about it so maybe there is another reason why he was banned??

You're an idiot! :-)

(Well, you did say...)

HTML is the language used to create web pages.
