He posted some stuff about another poster,
in the Animal Enclosure.
Where we are allowed to be abusive.
And he gets a full ban on his email and IP.

This is Draconian and wrong wrong WRONG of the Mods
to break their own rules.
Totally unhappy

Hi Mick

Those posts were made in threads in the Fan Forum and those posts were split from the threads in the fan forum and placed under the same thread name in the Animal Enclosure - which is what we do with such posts rather than delete them or leave them to clog up and fester in the threads.

The rules are followed. I have been communicating with him over the past few days about is re-entry (via PM) and the conditions he now finds himself in as a member of the community having now received the second worst ban available. An e-mail address ban from using his previous email address. It is more a matter of inconvenience and a wake up call.

It is not an IP ban.

I really don't want to IP ban anyone.

However I cannot control what he or anyone else posts - but if it breaches the forum rules then we have to act without fear or favour.

I didn't know the originals were in the main marketplace.
He is one of my favourite posters and would be sad to lose his knowledge and assessments, which are valuable as he used to work at the club and still has a connection.

Hope he stays.
