I just got kick/banned from #macdev and #iphondev. I was asking an
exceptionally complicated NSStream question in #iphonedev, and though
I got a lot of pseudo-answers, nobody really even understood the
question to begin with; I hand't even gotten far enough in physically
typing out the text explaining the problem, so they couldn't possibly
have gotten the point.
After enough trying there, I went to #macdev instead, looking for
alternative thoughts. Fortunately, someone there was finally able to
understand the question, but only after dozens and dozen of lines of
IRCing in a PM. He gave some pointers, and now it's all worked out.
However, in the mean time, another user in #macdev started bitching at
me about reposting the question when I already supposedly got "loads
of answers" in #iphonedev (which I most definitely did not).
I say "bitching" because he wasn't just politely reminding me that
re-posting question is frowned up. His words were of a condensing
sort, and he was _bitching_ about it. So, I said "fuck you, /ignore",
and put him on "/ignore" Immediately after that, the admin RTFM_FTW
banned me, and he's not willing to lift it.
I get banned from #iphonedev and #macdev on a very regular basis.
Don't quote me on the numbers, but I think it's something like once
per month, sometimes maybe more. Every time it's by this abusive admin
RTFM_FTW. I've had open disputes with him in the past. Eventually I
politely told him that I didn't think we should interact anymore, and
then put him on a permanent "/ignore" in my IRC client. But the bans
keep coming anyway :-/
I feel that I'm being discriminated against. The bans keep coming from
RTFM_FTW, and from nobody else.
I wish I could put some sort of injunction on RTFM_FTW banning me,
because I'm certain no other admins would.
I'm not really sure what to do here. I'm really missing
#macdev/#iphonedev right now :-(

P.S
If you're on here RTFM_FTW, fuck you. Just leave me the fuck alone
already. I don't want to talk to you, and you don't want to talk to
me; we don't like each other, and that's fine. But stop fucking
banning me already, it's an abuse of your position. Feel free to ask
another op to ban me, and if that other op feel that it's fit, then
I'll be fine with a ban from _them_. But I doubt that's likely to ever
happen, because 90% of your reason for banning me is due to the
lasting dislike of me that you have from that time I talked back to
you earlier this year in #macdev, so just quit it already, please!
