Sockpuppetry is the rule that got him banned, that's all.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

"Peanut Gallery?" I'm all for rules and necessary moderation, but not the aristocratic attitude of all too many site owners who rely entirely on their "peanut gallery" to provide content and the activity which keeps it alive. Why not just use the word "peasantry"?
Mr. Hanky loves you!

You are aware that it wasn't the owner who set this thread up and chose to title it, yes?

Even if it was, I think Mr. Hanky could serve to develop a sense of humor.

I must admit that when I was a mere member, before being raised to the lofty level of Mod (notice that capital "M"), that I, too was offended by being referred to as a peanut!

I'm more of a raisin, really...
