Oh, you wacky mods. I know Robin Hill is a special snowflake and must be protected at all costs from seeing anything that might ruffle her idiotic racist feathers, but come on. I was right.

Has there ever been a poster at the boards who was banned even if following the rules?

I wish I could ban people who write in text-speak. Hell, maybe that should be a bannable offense

I can't think of any.

Closest I can remember was a user back on ezboard who was unapologetically anti-semitic, saying stuff that reads like a neo-nazi pamphlet. I think we banned that person after it was clear that he wasn't going to change and he meant what he said. So even though he didn't flame anyone, or post copy-righted stuff or break any of the other rules, he was banned.

I was banned once for using the phrase "anti-choice" to describe opponents of abortion. I don't think that specific phrase is banned anywhere in the rules - or if it is, none of my requests to the mods for clarification were ever answered.

One of the principle reasons I just lurk, anymore, in fact.

That is, by far, not the entirety of the story.

But okay.

No, you're right - it's not the whole of the story. But it's the heart of the story, and the part that mattered to me.
