    It was the hair comment.

    Prost probably blocked you also for criticizing his nose, when it's better than Belmondo's

    Seen Hamilton is back training on his social media, not something you'd expect from suffering from long covid.

    Hamilton is apparently on Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat, and has thousands of followers. That could take all his time.
    I would not be surprised if he has people handling his accounts for him.

    I would suspect some form of bot filter that seeks certain terms/phrases and blocks users. Would be very inefficient to have people screen content for him (not that he couldn't afford it).

    Quite possible, also people like Hamilton can hire staff to handle their media, PR, answer their communications, etc ...

    Wait....not even to a forum member this is now a banable offense? But calling him a poodle is A-ok? Or calling other drivers a POS or rat bastard is fine?

    Well furoni’s contribution was totally useless… at least when u don’t like something about Hamilton u make a valid argument& u expose ur views with clarity…

    Last I checked a useless contribution wasn't banworthy.

    I find it bizarre that that statement led to a full site ban for 2 weeks. thread/section ban if he was warned, maybe.

    So, it’s cool for a mod to have Hamilton as his or her avatar with “scumbag” written over his face, but what Furoni said crosses the line?

    For the record, I don’t like either type of conduct, but the double standard is glaring.

    Well if we just want to be vulgar then that is not the customer I think fchat wants, additionaly I’d say if I look at furoni’s latest post he was on a tear of expletives.

    I agree with the message in the avatar but I do find the double standard very questionable.

    What I find interesting is why grown men go on a forum section to fight against a dude they don’t know.
    No parties seem to be willing to meet in the middle : you will
    Never convinced KTU that Hamilton isn’t the greatest and furoni that Gilles isn’t a legend so why on earth don’t people have each other’s on ignore?
    I mean if you don’t like pasta or pizza you wouldn’t go to an Italian restaurant right ? So here why do u not ignore each other.
    I don’t know about double standards but IMO furoni’s behavior regarding Hamilton is classless and he may not like the guy that’s totally okay & valid but such way of contributing doesn’t really help the forum.

    That is the whole point of the profanity filter. You are supposed to get a ban for circumventing it, not for relying on it.

    Whilst I pretty much agree with your entire post, I do find it interesting to say the least that he received a full forum ban for inappropriate comments towards a driver, that's pretty unlikely to be a member here, whilst we've seen, far, far worse.

    A thread ban and explanation would've been far more on point considering the comment he made isn't a member, especially given that other moderators can call Vettel a POS or Rat Bastard for example.

    Could be but I think, even though Ray Walston's Mr Applegate was in the show and the film, Vincent Price owned the role

    Would he have accomplished that finish/performance in a Williams? If yes, then I would agree that would be considered a splendid performance. When you have such a dominate car, not such a big accomplishment.
