Anybody else interested in creating a "banned" area?

[Younggun]

Once upon a time, another forum I used to visit set up something like this. Only admins/mods were able to post in the forum. All that was posted was a brief synopsis of why the user was banned. It helped answer the questions about disappearances I keep seeing surface here.

If only the mods/admin could post in the thread it would simply lead to threads being started in other areas by those wanting to discuss the issue.

Like this thread for example. (No offense, Cam)

No worries.
IIRC I was told to start a thread to accomplish my goals, and it did.

What is the value of answering those questions?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Don't you know?
It was an AR type weapon....

For one, it stopped the "Hey, what happened to XXXXX". It also helped reinforce the line between acceptable and unacceptable behavior. Different forum. Different purpose. Different audience.

Don't know if it's the right thing there. Personally, I've noticed lots of those banned after the fact. Somehow I seem to miss their meltdowns. I've wondered what happened, but always assume that it's none of my business. Not my house. I'm just a guest here.

I'm just offering one option. I don't really get a vote. And...beyond idle curiosity, I don't really care.

I imagine many of the people banned are relatively new and not those that anyone would really care about, anyway. Such as the paintball idiot that was banned last week. I don't think anyone knew who he was before that and likely wouldn't want to inquire about a ban. As for people who have been here awhile, if they get banned, it's likely that everyone will know why, anyway.

Argh! You've already forgotten old Frosty?

It’s pretty easy to keep from being banned here. Hell, I got banned once and changed my name. Easy peasy. See if I make that mistake again........ Wait, did I say that out loud???

But...we've also got jerks that haven't been banned.
