Dang, that’s tough! I’m right there with you, wanting to take my own liquids with me… but they probably thought you had GHB.

I was going to say Reddit, but then I realized you meant from some fun place. So no, I haven’t been banned from some place fun.
currently working on getting banned on the rest of the reddit subs i frequen(ted).
Does that count?
This reminds me of an old cartoon; Old guy getting banned from the cemetary and rejoicing his new found imortality. Thought that was funny.
I've been banned off of Line for the crime of doing literally nothing. I created an account before a trip to Japan so I could add Japanese people I already knew or might meet while there.
I made the account without any significant issues, got the QR code to add a friend then got an unspecified error any time I tried to add them. I tried adding an official account with the same error. I looked it up and saw some suggestions about waiting a few days to try again so I did just that with the same results for any official account or my friends account. My brother made an account and tried to add our friend with the same results, then found that when using my QR code it said the account didn't exist.
After digging more into it and trying to figure out what was up with Line's support directly all I could find was an FAQ that said if you got an unspecified error when adding someone then it means your account violated Terms of Service for sending illegal messages, harassing people, etc that type of stuff. Still have yet to figure out how exactly either of us did any of those things before we could send a single message, but I'm sure it's a very good and logical reason which would surely also explain why Line doesn't answer my tickets or emails. Surely.
Happens to me with vpn. Ebay notoriously did the same thing and I have heavy suspicion it was vpn. I contacted support and they said I violated tos and they couldn't tell me why and said a new account to evade the ban is also against TOS. So far, I haven't had any more bans but I've had to make like 10 so far.
Probably got flagged as a bot by accident tbh
Happens sometimes, especially if you're on a vpn
nice try, officer
hahaha 📝🤨
Kicked out of Canada when I was in my early twenties.
Picture it. 1998. Niagara Falls (the Canadian side). I was visiting western New York with my gf at the time. She was driving and we had three of her friends in the car with us.
She was speeding so a local cop flashed his lights and pulled us over. He made her step out of the car. Then he came over, stuck his head through the driver’s side window and chastised us all:
“You know how fast she was goin’? One of you needs to be the designated smart guy and tell her to slow down.”
Then his eyes focused on me in the backseat.
Cop: “Where are you from?”
Me: “Georgia.”
Cop: “Yeah well you just need to get back to the border and get outta here. We don’t need your kind here.”
PWB?
Was there actual paperwork, or was that RCMP officer just power tripping?
Id say he meant he was told to get out by them, but it wasn't legally binding.
Yeah. Mounties like swinging their dick around as much as the next beat cop, and OP conspicuously didn't mention how much they were speeding by, exactly. Since OP wasn't at the wheel I don't see how they could be ejected, though. Being an idiot's passenger isn't a crime.
Exactly.
He said to leave and I was all “Yes sir! Thank you, sir!”
🙂
(No, really. I was like let’s GTFO)
