Shadowbanning is the most cowardly fucking way of moderating a forum.
People should know they broke a rule, and why, and what the punishment is. If you're too cowardly to face someone and tell them why you swung the banhammer at them, fuck off and get a new "job".
Maybe I wasn't clear, what I was doing was addressing the inevitable argument mods make, when they justify this by saying that it's punishment for broken rules.

Not that it actually really is that.
