**kevlaw** suspended for 1 week as he ignored moderator instruction & a warning.

Suspension has been determined to be a full week.  
**Suspended until Aug 3, 2021** 9:00 am (EST)

When you return be sure not to ignore moderator instructions and warnings.  
Never argue with moderators in the thread where you were moderated.  
Questions about moderation go in the ATMB or by PM.

First the modnote:

> [@Is there a non-bigoted reason to be anti-same-sex-marriage?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/is-there-a-non-bigoted-reason-to-be-anti-same-sex-marriage/947222/323):
>
> Modnote: Very carefully calling another poster a liar is still calling another poster a liar. Please don’t “attempt” to do this again.

Then the warning:

> [@Is there a non-bigoted reason to be anti-same-sex-marriage?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/is-there-a-non-bigoted-reason-to-be-anti-same-sex-marriage/947222/368):
>
> Official Warning and Thread Ban for kevlaw. Still finding clever ways to call other posters liars and still taking the thread off-topic. The accumulation of your posts in this thread are problematic. But more importantly you specifically ignored the modnote addressed to you. If you return to this thread expect a suspension. There is no style points for clever in accusing other posters of lying.

Which he ignored:

> [@Is there a non-bigoted reason to be anti-same-sex-marriage?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/is-there-a-non-bigoted-reason-to-be-anti-same-sex-marriage/947222/370):
>
> Are there any penalties for lying?

Additionally there were two other modnotes to drop side issues and not attack posters that he was the biggest offender of.

> [@Is there a non-bigoted reason to be anti-same-sex-marriage?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/is-there-a-non-bigoted-reason-to-be-anti-same-sex-marriage/947222/75):
>
> General reminder, attack the post and not the poster. I’m not going to mod this thread but some flags are happening and another GD mod will address them. @Hari_Seldon@raventhief

>
> Modnote: This is not an appropriate response in anyway. Please do not do this again. Everyone, please get back to the Debate in the Op. Not related side issues. And especially not each other.
