"but I just don't think one incident of stupidity on the poster's side of things should result in a ban"
We are not for banning anyone on this board but if you did a little searching on the past couple of months posts on both boards, you would find this is far from 'one incident' from this poster.
At least one of his posts was deleted for being more offensive than this and another on the club board was censured by the On-line Communications Director. I believe he may also have had a warning in the past from Greg.
