The most recent ban of "The Redneck", I would assume from reading the mod/admin edit of his post, was the result of him calling another member a "moron". However, this specific "other member" directly called everybody who posted in that thread (rather, I believe, everybody in the forum) a "moron". Not only did this other member do this, but he/she also directly insulted and disrespected Ronald Reagan. (Regarding a similar topic towards another person, Del Murder had this to say: "You know, there are ways of questioning the merit of a person in the eyes of his admirers without being disrespectful or a complete jerk about it.") I realize that this other member has most likely already been banned, but saying "I'm sure glad he's dead" and referring to him as a "worthless piece of crap" doesn't warrant an edit? And calling one person a moron needs to be edited, but calling every member of the forum a moron doesn't?
But apart from the edit-worthy topic, and on to the ban-worthy topic. How is calling one person a moron, in obvious sarcastic response to the same insult, worthy of an automatic ban, when so many worse insults are floating around that are spoken as serious insults?
