I expect that a member, after multiple private warnings (e.g. due to violation of 'Terms and rules'), is going to be temporarily banned. That is a status that is public. I can see that some 'temporarily banned' members will be humiliated by that (to different degrees), and some of those may later seek 'revenge' in some form.I understand. But if that situation happened in the past, how come the Admins managed to so deeply annoy a forum member who had contributed so much valuable content?
The 'Terms and rules' are accessible via a link at the bottom of this web site.And this begs the question: does the content not belong to the user who created/posted it?
In those is,
