		<description>James, I know you but I wont blurt out your nick. This makes three of us complaining of unjustifiable bans from Mingle2.  If only one person was complaining, it would be suspicious. Three people makes it obvious there is a problem. We need to complain. There is power in numbers. I notice currently, they have a pay membership option which greatly changes the member's rights as it concerns bans. They no longer possess across the board control as it becomes discriminatory. Contact me. We need to get Wynper (see above post) on board also.</description>

		<description>I was recently banned from Mingle2.  The Administration and Mods ban  any ideas that go against the majority opinion.  The site is one big clique and looks at individuals as trouble makers and bans them.  Administration and Mods like to claim that the site is one of the most exciting on The Web.  It is not.  The forums are very dead and/or populated by members of 'the clique'.  If you believe in individuality,avoid Mingle2.  be seeing you</description>

		<description>wynper,

I am another banned member from the site Mingle2. This was done with no clear explanation provided other then I was a "Christian Basher." You will also notice that Mark who posted above and several of the members of the Admin team are all listed as Christian on their profiles. If you wish to contact me so we can discuss further action, please do. Thanks.</description>

		<description>Regarding the above post, you were banned for repeatedly breaking our rules. If you wish to tell the story, that's fine, but do include the entire story.

 Continually protesting admin actions for the rules you agreed to, in joining. Continually bashing our mods. Continually baiting members (after being warned numerous times). 

 And now, here you are bashing the site on the internet...Mingle2 is the fastest growing free dating site on the web. We keep it that way, by keeping our forums civil.

		<description>I am another banned mingler... I have been on this site for some time and recently posted a news item about a doctor murdered in his church.  

The thread was about the murder or the doctor. I didn't bait. I received a warning that abortion was a banned subject. So, in Feedback I posted a question...since in the forum rules abortions wasn't a banned subject. 

Every trace of the subject and my question in feedback has been removed. I looked for anywhere to address the admin to no avail. Please....let's  find a way to talk to Mingle2 admins or at least let other know what a mess Mingle2 is?

Suspensions? sure but when you cannot even ask why?</description>

		<description>I've been on the site since it was JustSayHi and one thing I can say is the forums are moderated as they should be and problem members are dealt with. I have never known the site to ban anyone that did not deserve it in the long run. 

The forums are well maintained Mods &#38; Admin always take the time to answer to your problems as well as return your e-mail about any concerns you may have within the site. As well as all suggestions one may have. 

I would highly recommend the site to anyone.</description>

		<description>Nice to see a site that actually takes action against religion bashers. I can't even remember the number of sites I've given up on due to constant atheist trolling.</description>

		<description>I am a 36 year old female member who was recently permanently banned from the Mingle2 website. This was done without warning, explanation or further notice. The only reason I can imagine is that I predominantly posted on the "General Religion" forum and had been accused of "Christian Bashing." I would very much like to launch a complaint for discrimination based on my religious views. I’m not sure if this is possible however.</description>
