Because banning people is fun? But really, we had some interesting politics on this forum. Temporary bans were common punishments. I was a mod, but I got in argument and it got me a temporary ban and a demotion after that, etc. No one every got really upset that I know of, and I'm not sure why we were so strict with such a small group. However, that's how we did it.
Anyway, nice to see you. There isn't much action on this forum anymore, but feel free to have fun browsing the archives. There's some really interesting stuff in there if you look around. Also feel free to bump any thread that interests you and I'll be happy to discuss it again or explain it if you have questions. Any new life in this forum isn't a bad thing.
