I don't think so. Banning is an extremely rare event here. Dissenters tend to get overwhelmed. Who are you thinking about?
That is one of the funniest posts ever posted on this forum.

Well done. I really laughed.

a point of curiosity here, did Smokey actually get banned or did he just tire of posting stuff. I wondered a couple of times if the persona and point of view was all just a fiction which the author tired of so ended and adopted a new different persona.

Upthread it was observed a couple of times that banning a poster is rare. Binger thought that funny, doubting its accuracy I would think. I am aware of limits put on some posters for a period of time. I think LDSfaqs could only start threads in a limited forum. It limited the number of youtube links from him.

Is a question about actual banning somehow off limits or private?
Does anybody actually know?

Mg, your response creates more question than clarification.You are posting now so are obviously not banned. What sort of temporary ban are you referring to?

Smokey was a board terrorist. If there was anyone who should have been banned--I thought he was--it was Smokey.

This was a few years ago. Back in my wilder days. Thanks Kishkumen. No one home today except me and the kidney stone. Not fun at all.
