Did you warn yourself, and tell yourself why you had been banned? How did you react to the ban? Did you complain?
Seriously, banning yourself because you are not sure you did the right thing seems even more meaningless than most other bans.[/b]

It's what both stocken and cadwah have been saying all along, and I don't see why it shouldn't be true. Of course it was a stupid idea, but if you'd delete everything which is stupid and has the potential to cause trouble, and ban the people who posted it, the forums would be almost empty.

Originally posted by PhlabibitWell, apparently either he or you decided that a ban was not justified in this case, so either he or you disagreed with you. Since you retracted the ban, I don't have a problem with it. And I was basically saying that you were handling this better than those moderators who are completely silent and let others do the work. Still, I am curious what you wanted to achieve by giving yourself a ban.

Originally posted by NordlysNoodles, you think this was worse than any time I did tell a user why I did ban them? No, it isn't. Someone wanted to drag it into the public and RHP members stood by what I did, others did not. It was a lot easier than going in circles with a user.

Is it the best solution? No. The best solution would be a PM from RHP saying "You were banned for starting a sarcastic thread sure to cause crap".
I'm not changing anything about the way I moderate, some want more, some want less... and I'll never make everyone happy.

Originally posted by PhlabibitYes, I know how it is to go in circles with you. 😉 Even more so when you told me in the end that you hadn't been the one who had given me the ban... But it would never have happened if I had got a warning instead of an unexplained ban (which in this case wasn't your fault).

Originally posted by NordlysI think the whole banning process requires looking at.

Originally posted by rmackenYou clearly have a problem understanding that I am cussing you, not Stocken. Although come to think of it, I imagine he's probably just made for the same cupboard.
Mate, all this came about because of Stocken as he is a member of the Jalepeno Donkeys, so try again.
