That makes no sense.
Sure it does. He banned her because he dosen't like her/she insulted or bad mouthed him. Look at the crap you said to Tom and he never pussied out and banned you. It's an easy solution. Not saying you should have been, you certainly should not. I don't think mods should make decisions on personal convictions.

Martin I himself once said he didn't have it in him to ban someone because he didn't like them.

Well, Tom banned Burke's new account by the name of "Petrovich" without any reason and took no action against Claire, even though it was her fourth account I presume. No reasons given, however it's probably the same case as John and Claire, of course minus the provocation seen here.

5th I believe. But still, a moderator can ban because he dosen't like the person? That is terrible. In that case you wouldn't even be here andy, if Tom hadn't afforded you the respect and just banned your ass.
I've got to rush, and don't really feel like spending all evening justifying myself anyway. So, in summary:
Yes, a mod can ban arbitrarily. However, we do tend to restrain ourselves. I did not ban Claire because I don't like her. Truth be known, I don't really care about her either way.

Banned for answered back to a moderator.
If you're not familiar with the expression "the straw that broke the camel's back", I suggest you look it up. She hasn't been banned before for no reason. She logged on this afternoon and posted a plethora of mindless insults at random members. She was just looking to get a rise.

The absolute low of forum moderation in my book.
In a word, bollocks. I give up some of my time to moderate here because I like to give something back to a forum I've enjoyed participating in. I don't need abuse over it, especially from some spiteful fool who thinks she can just go around insulting people. Well, no, this place is built on mutual respect. That's both in the rules and in the praxis. If you disagree, petition Marty to reinstate Claire. If he agrees, I'll step down. This place needs her like a fire in the server.

But hell, don't ban me. PUT the cuffs away Mik :D
I have no reason to. I don't do that. I've never seen a mod here do that.

Beginning to doubt your acclaimed success with the ladies after a comment like that mate :D

Yeah, TBH even I think it was a bit harsh. Actually, waaaay too harsh if she was banned for this alone, but I really cant comment on her other actions, we'll just have to trust mikhail.

mikhail has anyone complimented you on your eloquence? I like the way you put that. Have you thought of writing? Fiction? Erotic stories?



Just kidding :D

Where do I see Marty 2's other websites? His 'network'?

That's a lot of posts, congrats.

Now get out in the nice weather! ;)
Too many posts to be honest. Nice weather? You mean that nice heat that makes you sweat off half your body weight? I would move to Sweden just to get away from this torture. :D
