We don't ban based on lack of affection. There'd be a lot fewer members here if that were the case. You can search through the ban log if you're really curious 
Oh ok, thanks!
Um.. where's the ban log? Lol.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

It's complicated. He seemed to like to troll the staff.
There's been more than one case where we've had to ban someone that if it were simply a matter of personal feelings, many of us would prefer not to. fr0d0 was one of those cases.

Frodo was a lot of fun in the "ban the member about you" and other threads. He had a sense of humor. But, while I'm not a moderator here, I have been elsewhere, and anyone who stalks or threatens, or otherwise harasses staff in the role of staff simply can't be allowed. I've seen atheists I've liked here banned for stalking minors and other rules violations. It's a level playing field. Obey the forum rules and you won't be banned.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

I sure hope you guys don't also think I'm trolling you. I actually think before I say. I'm not just spouting stuff to get on your nerves, you know.

I sure think you don't think I'm also trolling you guys whenever I disagree with you and try and correct you. I actually think before I say. I'm not just spouting stuff to get on your nerves, you know.
People who like to make every conversation about them truly amaze me.

I sure hope they do. Those kinds of people might have mental problems.
I don't see what does that have to do with anything, though. Trolls don't talk about themselves much.

I actually got what you meant, girl*, I was just trying to give you a way out of this.
If you like calling covering all the bases being absorbed with yourself, than I seriously worry about your well-being[ in the event that you deem the former activity bad and neglectable ] seeing as one can't really survive if one doesn't take care of himself.
