When someone is banned the posts and location show whether they paid or not.

Now to bet on how long it takes to shut this thread down.

I’ll wager 17 minutes from this post.

That’s just plum stupid. I mean, things like that just pique my iris. I can’t just lilac and take this anymore. I can’t even imagenta who came up with that policy. We’re jsut stuck in a cycle of lavender, rinse, repeat. What the fuchsia is wrong with you purple? It makes me want to mauve to another board entirely. Even with the burgundy numbers of new members, we end up pruning people like **The\_Grapist**. All the friendship and amethyst we once had is gone.  
(I’ll go shoot myself in penance now.)

No fair! The mods should have at least bent over to tie their shoes for a little while so we could get a good betting pool going. Now we’re reduced to corny puns.

Like Senator Kerry, you seem to flip-phlox on issues such as these. Don’t be a pansy.

(OK, I’ve run out of purple synonyms. That’s enough.)
