While not a prolific poster, **Fuel** has managed to maintain an attitude of supercilious contempt in the pursuit of ignorance, resulting in the following admonishments: [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=2914481&postcount=171](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=2914481&postcount=171) [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=6383875&postcount=26](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=6383875&postcount=26) and three separate efforts in one thread, beginning here: [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=7206659&postcount=13](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=7206659&postcount=13) to which he replied with [no display that he understood the issue of his behavior](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=7208374&postcount=30). He has, therefore, been given a 30 day suspension to reconsider his posting behavior. ---

Well. That was the _second_ most spectacular flameout I’ve ever seen in GQ. ---

I’m showing Fuel as BANNED, not suspended, has there been an error? ---

Doncha just love it when the notification is written by **tomndebb**? This was like having the morning anouncements in Elementary School read by [Alexander Scourby](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Scourby). ---

> [@scotandrsn](#): > > I’m showing Fuel as BANNED, not suspended, has there been an error? No, it’s just the way it works. A suspension is a temporary banning, and the software uses “banned” for it as well. An admin will have to change **fuel** ’s title when one gets around to it. ---

Well done, I think that a 3,000 day suspension is entirely appropiate even if a little lenient.
