It seems to be more difficult to ban on II these days.
One thing which is worse than profanity/discrimination, etc., is the ability of someone to lead others up the garden path to a promised end and not deliver.
At what point do you decide to ban such a person? I would be interested to read your comments; they may also be useful to the mods in helping to gauge the attitude of members.
Do you ban on past activity (e.g. threads closed for not keeping to the subject and just ranting)?
Do you ban on non-delivery after x number of posts?
Do you ban after members have asked reasonable questions about the system/software, etc., and been fobbed off, or even abused?
I find it extraordinary that a self-appointed guru can rant rubbish and have what appears to be a major following of desperate ppl who ignore reason at all costs. Yet, this is what seems to be happening here, today, at II.
You could easily argue that it is their own choice and responsibility. But when they get burned, the finger will point to II and the question will be asked: Why was a ban not imposed?
