Serious question. Not shit-stirring.
And yes, I am asking because I want to put a moderator on ignore.

Don't get me wrong, I don't want him banned - there are very very few people on here who, over the years, have deserved bannings. I just want to go into interesting threads and not read bizarre, outdated views for fear of replying with incredulity and get a wannabe bully threatening me with this and that. Far better to be able to ignore them. But no, apparently not.

Agreed.
There seems to be a pattern on here, too:
- poster writes something abusive/offensive
- other posters (quite rightly) pipe up and call them out on it
- mod weighs in and defends original poster and threatens those who replied with warnings/bans etc
- original poster walks away, satisfied with a job well done
Repeat to fade etc

That was a poorly executed joke, I meant you getting banned.

No, I think I got what you meant. And I wouldn't have put it past him to do that.

I really did think one of them would give me a genuine and sensible reason.
I presume there isn't one.
