Hey guess what! The reason for bannings handed down by the staff isn't up for public discussion! If staff wants you to know why PiP, or anyone else, was banned, we'll tell you. If you really, really want to know, PM a Knight or admin. Don't make a thread about it. Regardless, Proto's link is pretty self explanitory. PiP spammed up forums even when he was repeatedly asked not to do so.

Additionally, flaming a banned member is still flaming. I don't care if you didn't like PiP. If you don't like him, gossip about it in the privacy of your own PMs. Don't do it.
