1 Week suspension for Crane. Until March 22, 2022

[What_Exit]

@ECG is not available this week for personal reasons, however, the rest of the mods discussed this, and we feel the violation is straightforward enough that we don’t need to wait for his return to act on it. This is in your series of 16 posts in this thread

1. Crane is banned from discussing trans-related issues until further notice. We felt that Crane can be a constructive member of the board on other topics, but needs to refrain from further comments on this one. The ban will be posted.
2. Crane has earned an official warning and a 1 week suspension for his hate speech in this thread.

This thread is now closed.

Aspidistra finds loophole in hate speech rules?
