I had been on BGG for some time, the site in it's self is very good. So what happened? I was a member of a guild/group and when I finished making a post, as I do in all letters/post after my sign-off name I would say God Bless Ya!, or Jesus Lives, I was warned that doing this was overtly religious and not welcomed. Later on when replying to a post about the need to having more gay/trans inclusion/representation in actual board games themselves, said in a tact full manner, BGG said because of my past contuct (the God Bless) and my opposition to the LBG movement I was not the kind of person they wanted on their wed-site. They gave me a lifetime ban / and don't ask for reinstatement, for it will not be given.

God Bless You!
