Posted before I saw this bit. So, to clarify. Your comments last night were deleted--not because there was anything wrong with them--but because they quoted a post that needed to be deleted. I suppose I could have just edited out the quoted part and left the rest but your post would have seemed awfully strange without the context. No offense intended.
Now, as for this Maypax business, I really think that people are blowing everything out of proportion. First of all, Maypax hasn't been permanently banned, he's been temporarily suspended. And while the posting of Woof's PM was the final straw, the cards were surely down to a larger pattern of behaviour going back at least a couple of months with the young lad. As Mods we sometimes need to send a firm message when gentler ones aren't sinking in and I'm sure that's what's happened in this case.
The irony, of course, is that Maypax would probably have been reinstated by now if people, including Maypax himself, had just let sleeping dogs lie (see what I did there?). But, the constant carping over a decision about which few people--including me--have all the facts has understandably frustrated my colleague (who is, by the way, an exemplary Mod) and I don't blame him for getting a little surly. My advice would be for everyone to just leave it now, let things settle back down and I'm sure we'll see Maypax again before too long.
I think you are mistaken Bob. There was no "constant carping", and as far as I am aware (and I get on here a little bit) his previous "form" was an argument with someone in which he wasn't the instigator, and posting an obituary that Woof didn't happen to like.
I would be interested to know..... hands up anyone who has been banned for posting a PM ?
you can put your hand down now Maypax.
A little common sense and all this cr@p would have been avoided.
Maybe if some dogs had slept a little deeper we wouldn't be having this problem now (see what I did there?)
This is my first and last post on the banning........ hopefully!
