Life is a two way traffic. Most of the bans that have taken place cannot be blamed on the poster only and the moderator handling the issue is to blame too to a certain extent. Maybe bans could be avoided provided matters are handled properly. There are times when public warnings are issued to members and they are asked to reply back in a pm which defies my logic because the warning was public. IF a private convo is required the warning issued should be through pm. Then there are times when mods just warn in general in a thread but do not pinpoint any post or posters which I find very confusing because that warning essentially means that all posters are being warned whereas I feel only the poster in question should be warned through pm. Recently some mods have been way too "trigger happy" which is a bit sad because instead of enjoying the forum they have become way too serious about playing virtual police.That can and does get under the skin at times. I hope better sense prevails in both member and mods.
