He made a couple joke posts about the whole Watto/Jew caricature thing in a General Star Wars topic where it didn't even make sense, so I deleted the posts and suggested he take it easy. He responded with an e-mail telling me I was wrong, shouldn't be moderating a forum because I failed to see the connection between his post and the thread, and informed me that he was ignoring my warning.
He was banned (temporarily) because:
- He's a troll
- His response to my mild warning, instead of stating his case and arguing his point, was written purposefully to insult my intelligence and thumb his nose at the moderators
- I'm sick of his particular brand of bullshit, don't like him personally, and would prefer he not be here
He seemed to think that #3 was a huge scandal because it revealed bias on my part and demonstrated a willingness to ban people because I don't like them. As any member with whom I've disagreed over the years can tell you, #3 by itself is not, and has never been, enough of a reason to ban anyone. It just makes it more pleasurable to hit the button.
He'll be allowed back in a week if he cares to return, for those of you who truly miss him.
