Same as over here.

May I ask what the term of the ban is? I know that when Larry went on one of his many moderator-abuse jags in October, he was banned for 30 days.

Belief in the afterlife is an essential prerequisite...

Obviously you all have noticed Brian's increasing animosity for this place and the moderators since his dethroning. In recent months he really stepped up the attacks on us.

Repeated warnings, repeated warnings, then we threaten to ban. Walking on eggshells with him given his prior position, very reluctant to do any "behavior modification" as he puts it. He seems to like the idea of being banned and further pushes the limits. Opts for a suicide by cop rather than a graceful bow out.

This ridiculous thread was it for him. Tom asked for his thread to be closed. I closed it.

He got what he wanted. Martyrdom. You all can build him a virtual monument if you wish.:D I believe the ban is permanent.

Damn.
