Because I'm not sure if people still haven't been given the right to complain, I'll be starting this in the hopes that I can at least change his ban.
The thread in question is this one:
http://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=38823.80First of all, I don't know for how long the ban is. I suppose it's justified to give him one day or just a few hours to calm down. Anything more and it's much uncalled for and IMO not justifiable.
In the very same thread we see
this kind of behavior from Ichi, it has since been edited by Jack to make it much much smaller(I think he originally used the biggest font size). Notice something missing? If not, read closely: He was not warned at all, even when a moderator found it neccesary to edit his post.
In light of this, I don't think banning Sliver should've happened, especially when you see the likes of Levee posting
this:
gdissaray, your neurons must be full of crap...to believe that 1 billion trillion tons of water stay glued next to a spherical surface which flies through space at 107000 km/hr, means that you too can be accused of illegally carrying a brain inside your skull. Perhaps those three years you spent in first grade were not nearly enough to remove the crap from your mind...
These are personal attacks using swear words and at the same time flaming/harassing along with troublemaking(read
site rules for the very definition of these)
You'll notice that Levee is
continually using denigrating attacks. Notice something missing again? Probably, but I'll spell it out for you: He has not been warned by anyone either. The fact that his attacks are personal as well unlike Sliver who simply used profanity to put emphasis on the following word, makes Slivers ban even more questionable.
