And I gotta say this...
I have taken notice how busy activity on this board has been with locking threads, deleting others, the recent threat to ban flamers...but yet the jerk that sent me that PM has not been banned.
I hope that this isn't a message to SO's that it's perfectly ok to attack SO's with a vile pm like that, but if you're an SO and you do anything that could be construed as flaming, subject to the descretion of mods here, that we will be banned.
Am I crazy or is this what's going on here?

Glofishy,
Though there could be some bias here on the board (I don' think there is but I myself could very well be biased and not see it), I cannot accept that it would be so blatant.
There must be an explanation. Did you pm CV? If not, perhaps this thread has been overlooked as it is pinned and there is no "floating" clone to draw attention like there was on the All things in moderation thread. That is just a guess. Or perhaps CV does not have banning privileges. And/or perhaps Wes did not read pm's but merely came in to lock that thread and made a decision to not get caught up reading his pm's.
Those are just guesses of course but I am sure the truth will be something equally reasonable. I don't accept that either Wes or CV would find leaving that account open acceptable. And hopefully you are right and the IP can be traced to the member's regular posting ID so that can be banned as well.
A friend,
JohnG

Am I crazy or is this what's going on here? Personally, I am very Curious as to what YOUR answer is to the question.

I guess I'm crazy for asking the question?

I should have clarified my post.
I believe that you tried to ban this guy just because you said so, CV. It just seemed odd to me, and I really think I tried to point out, that Elphie's post was edited, an entire thread thrown in the trash, and the guy that sent me the pm wasn't touched during that entire process. I linked it here, but someone else linked it in the thread that was thrown away.
If it simply was an oversight, I can accept that and move on. But, tell me it was simply an oversight, because I don't want to just assume things.

Hey, Glo. CV banned the guy a long time ago. He didn't delete the account. When I ban people I usually don't delete the account because I don't want to lose access to their registration info in case they somehow figure out how to get back and start messing around again. Hope you see this. Sorry you were attacked in this way. - Wes

Flaming will get you banned It also makes all your nose hair fall out and then your fashion sense goes out the window, so you'll never have a decent handbag or pair of shoes again.
Sad, really.

Is it like a positive-negative effect? If you've been banned, what, like four times...? Does your fashion sense return? Does your nose hair come back?
When you fashion sense leaves, do you throw away your good handbags, or just wear them with the wrong outfits???
Please, tell me, I'm dying to know..!! ;D ;D ;D

Well, I can't speak for others who've been banned, but mine certainly did.

I know that what I'm about to say may cause sheer terror and mass hysteria, but that's a chance I'm willing to take in order that the truth may be heard.
You actually end up with the fashion sense of Boy George masquerading as Dame Edna the Borg at an Anita Bryant sponsored Star Trek convention in Tierra Del Fuego.
There. I said it.
I humbly pray to G*d to protect us all from that horror!!!
