Wow, I managed to miss this whole episode, thankfully. I'm suprised about Princes' involvement, I had a few good chats with him, though he did go a bit queer over the past few months.
In my opinion, if anyone starts doing anything remotely dodgy, just ban them, what real benefits do the majority of people (including me) bring to the board? Would it matter if they (or I) was banned, would it really affect the forum as a whole? I don't think so.
Props to Hax and Tim for sortin it all out!
