I have seen this happen after a regular member get a verbal warning like 3 or 4 times. I never saw it because if a meager speedbump. Iys not big brother attitude, its moderating a forum and admins are just beefed up moderators. I like TRS, but its not the first time a well liked forum member goes apeshit over the staff doing their jobs.
What I see is that alot of people taking the bait and breaking the forum rules because of this op's controversial attitude. Probably gave it leverage to bombard the staff with reports. Reports that are founded in the rules. I told Napo once (i think it was napo), when I was staff, that how can we fire the cannon when we have good forum members engaging in melee and breaking rules themselves? The banhammer does have splash damage.
Now, I know how the staff works and it pains me greatly to see such injustice throwed at them, for something so basic as a speedbump, the lowest of staff actions. One might think its just clicking around banning people but its not. It takes time and effort, the reason I stepped down, as I couldn't devote enough time to do anything real usefull.
The staff is always welcome to receive proper criticism/complaints/suggestions on the proper subforum. It is just very unfair to see it soiled by a momentaneous fit.
