IBTL!!
This board is a privately owned and opperated and is going to be the way the admin and mod's want it to be.
Love it or leave it, that's just the way it is.
Props to the mods that even posted in this thread with feedback on the whole situation. At other boards the only reply that members would get to a thread like this is "This is between the admin and the member in question and is no one elses concern."
I didn't see the thread in question, but can tell you from the experience I had when I was verbaly attacked by a member with mental issues that bans don't happen very often here. So if there was a ban issued it had to be for a good reason.
Maybe we should all keep in mind that all of the mods and admin are not being paid for what they do here and donate their time to keep this place running.
Cheers.
