I think you are splitting hairs here, I have always gotten warnings, before getting a ban, and I am sure everyone else does also. On mine it has said if you don't understand, get a hold of a mod, probably because I am one of the special people huh.
There have been several I didn't agree with. 😉
EDIT: I should add, if you are smart enough to shut u ...[text shortened]... ds than I have, but we have to be honest about it, and except responsibility for our actions.
This thread is now closed. You may talk with GB to find out why he has earned either ban, you can send feedback but probably will not hear anything back on the subject.
GB's first ban was for doing something he was asked more than once not to do. His second ban was for doing something else he was asked not to do.
Most users here will not earn a ban for doing these things, they will get a warning. Only when warnings are ignored are bans issued. The reasoning for bans are not public, much like there is no longer a ban list telling us why users are removed from the site.
Again, GB earned his bans for ignoring warnings on 2 separate subjects. Users are seldom issued bans for first offenses, and the reason for any ban is between the moderators, admins, and the banned user only.
