Yes, that is pretty funny.  One can be kicked off of a privately owned site, for any reason, or for no reason, if the owners wish to do so.  Typically, though, there is something in a list somewhere called "rules" that people ignore that gets them kicked off of privately owned sites.

It is a bit like someone being shocked if they were asked to leave someone's private home, when they become obnoxious and piss on the carpet (literally or metaphorically).  What, I can't do whatever I want in your place?

Some people are really, really, really stupid.
