LOL, I just went over to that website too. I decided to sign up but found out I already had, on August 11, 2006. I wonder what train-wreck of a thread took me over there.....
Hi, guys! Thought I might jump in to try to clarify a couple of things.
For the poster who asked what might precipitate being banned or to no longer be allowed to participate here, the truth is that you have to work at it pretty hard. Lovetoscrap posted a link to our posting guidelines. They basically say no fighting, no advertising, no profanity. Outside of repeatedly or outrageously doing one of those things, a poster has to be pretty rude or disruptive to be banned.
There's no problem with mentioning a poster who no longer posts here or has been banned, any more than mentioning an active poster would be. Actually, I don't think that there's any way for most posters to know who's been banned or who hasn't. I think the confusion about this comes in because some conversations about banned posters have turned into arguments or led to other rudeness toward other posters or even our moderators, and those things are problems.
We won't get into discussions about why any specific poster has been banned. That's really between that poster and the webmasters here, and there's no need to publicly debate it or to embarrass any of the people involved. Even posters who no longer post here deserve to be treated with dignity.
