Banning to one post and silencing based on one persons view is never a good procedure to follow. There should be more than one persons opinion and decision before someone is muzzled, expressly there should be a vote on the board by actual posters whether an individual should be silenced or curtailed. A single moderator or administrator CAN have a very biased opinion themselves (which is never even considered on this board), therefore affecting the important free flow of information and fairness.
Someone complaining about a poster to admin may be the one who is the problem! Let the board posters decide. Are we democratic or are we not? Allowing only one person or those not completely submersed in the daily chats to act as a supreme dictator and judge is akin to living the 1984 saga.
“If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” “I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.”
