For one, it seems like a pretty silly offense, and even if you want to justify such a ban per the rules of the forum (which I would criticize in Randy's case, as he always engaged specific critiques), why disallow PMs?
This, i.e. the elimination of all "our" more engaging opponents, is what makes me completely disinterested in these forums at this point... it's like this place is only useful if I get the urge to come smell my own shit.
Do you realize that he had several verbal warnings, two official warnings, and a temp ban for exactly the same thing, and that he expressed only righteous indignation when we called him on it? The last time, his excuse was "if you all knee who wrote it, you wouldn't have read it". That's been upgraded to "I was in a hurry".
He was completely uninterested in following that particular rule.
What would you suggest we do? Take away his birthday?
