i think having exactly 2 disciplinary actions available to mods, deleting posts or permabanning users, has forced this place to become more and more like a dysfunctional leftbook group. we can bounce back though probably, if we (mods and users) learn from this.
Having moderated a few forums in the past, I can say with certainty that if I just banned people for no given reason, I'd rightly be stripped of any power.
