I believe the ban was justified under the grounds of:

1. Severe flaming.
2. Possibly severe trolling.
3. Insulting Staff Members.
4. Using heated language.

flaming/trolling = 2 infractions

insults/language are categorized under flaming I believe.

The ban remains unjustified. Did he deserve it? No. No one took it that seriously. It really should have been moved to the spam section so our users could continue to make fun of him.

Lol I find it funny, but doesn't make it fair :P. Just had to point it out.

By agreeing to these rules, you warrant that you will not post any messages that are obscene, vulgar, sexually-oriented, hateful, threatening, or otherwise violate any laws.

Note: Staff reserve the right to ban or warn for any unconscionable act. The above rules and associated punishments only apply when the staff can reasonably judge that a user does not deserve some other, perhaps more severe form of punishment for any unconscionable act they might make on the forums.

The ban is completely justified. Flaming is only worth two points? He broke the rule twice which is a build up of 4. Excessive cursing is worth another 2. Thats 6 infractions. Which is the same as a two week ban. I gave him a week. Not to mention it was very excessive and severe in both cases.

It does not matter if he was serious or not. He still needs to follow the same exact rules as everybody else.

Any more posts about his banning should be made in the appropriate thread.

Oh go on then, ban me too while you're at it. We both know I'm gunna get there sooner or later anyways.

If you really still think its unjustified he has had about 30 accounts on BP. All of which have been banned for various things. He was allowed one account back after he showed me a major bug in one of our user ranks however he was, and is forever on thin ice.

Well I don't understand how you can say flaming twice is 4 points and a description(cursing) of flaming within the same post counts as another 2 points, but I suppose they're not my rules.
