(probably wrong forum, probably breaking unwritten rule to not question bannings, probably missed the post where he advocates pedophilia, but fuck it…) I go away for two days, and come back to find one of the SDMB’s most promising talents banned. I can find no obivous transgression from said poster. To ban the author of “GAH GAH SPIDER IN MY PANTS” there must be a damned good reason. I’m suprised to say the least. Little help here? ---

Question a banning all you want, but the preferred route to do it is to email a moderator. ---

Thanks Qadgop, I’ll do that. I wasn’t sure if it was OK to directly email them about this kind of thing. I wasn’t sure of the ettiquete regarding the subject of bannings. Mods: If you could close this thread I would appreciate it. Thanks.
