Does anybody know what Martinus did to get banned?

He took a hard turn to the right, and was purged.



I mean, he should have seen this coming.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Sorry, but this is total bullshit. I can understand a temp ban for mouthing off to a mod. That's well deserved.

But this feels arbitrary and petty. It seems like this is more about satisfying personal vendettas and political differences than moderating the forum. Please reinstate him, or give him some kind of firm and reasonable boundary for his ban. Banning him because we don't like him is silly. There are plenty of posters here who are just as bad in other ways. This is Martinus bashing at its worst.

He responded to a Seedy post with "are you drunk?"

If that's true, then he shouldn't have been banned.  As CdM was told once, his own posts as a poster are fair game, just like everyone else's.

However, I'm going to choose to believe that it was just a software glitch that he was ever let out of the back alley in the first place.

Eat me.  I can abuse anyone I like in the name of peace and fucking quiet once in a while.

Eh, he was getting more annoying then usual.  Sometimes he needs to be reminded about his place in the world.

Untwist yourself, then.
