Irishman, his explanantion still doesn’t cut it if you go past the initial hammer post and read further.

Yes, it started with “not this again”\* but read the entire warning:

> [@Argent Towers, a moment of your time.](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/argent-towers-a-moment-of-your-time/529227/169):
>
> \*t’s a clear violation of the “don’t be a jerk” rule, which I can see we’re going to have to start applying more liberally. So here’s a formal warning: if you ever do anything so breathtakingly irresponsible again, or violate any other SDMB rules, or just generally behave like an idiot, you’ll be banned without further notice.

You respond with:

> [@Argent Towers, a moment of your time.](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/argent-towers-a-moment-of-your-time/529227/179):
>
> OOOOh a warning! That’ll show him!
> 
> Christ on a stick, are you deaf man?

So the only reasonable assumption is that what seems IMHO be a swift and strong warning was not enough for you in the specific case of Argent Towers. Tell me what would have been a more hammer-like response that doesn’t include a banning? Were you calling for a suspension?

\*I’ll note that by your definition you are “lying” about what Ed said, as his actual words were “I swear, it’s one fricking thing after another.”
