What’d I miss? What was the last straw? I think we all saw it coming… Please fill me in! Links would be helpful. Call me an ambulance chaser, but I’d like to know what happened. ---

I think [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=286387) may have been the straw that broke Blackacre’s back. Not that any of his other posts helped. ---

Who cares? Good riddance, I say. He was a troll who delighted in writing malignant posts to stir up trouble. ---

Agreed. I have to say this banning doesn’t make me bat an eye, as opposed to **lissener** , who I kinda miss. **lissener** may have been obnoxious and did bend the rules, but at least he had something of substance to say occasionally. **blackacre** just kind of struck me as a worthless troll. ---

It is unseemly (not to mention cowardly) to attack people who cannot defend themselves. ---
