Lenny, from this post, it is clear to me that it is the contest that upset
you and factored into your decision of placing the indefinite suspension.
You ask me how (what Chris did) is this analogous to what is normally done
on Lugnet? Well to me its simple, its not analogous at all because the
contest was not held here.
|
The contest is unique - it was a public attempt to remove someone from
Lugnet. I feel that its flagrant-ness, plus Chris’s obmission that it was not
intended as a joke, move it from the ‘only on this site’ situation.
I feel that it contradicts this portion of the ToU:
1. (do not) Restrict or inhibit any other user from using the discussion
groups.

Lenny, you don’t seriously believe Chris violated that do you? Even if anyone
WAS prepared to enter, it would be Larry, not Chris, not the entrant who would
be making the decision to leave. Chris has not restricted Larry’s use of the
discussion groups in any way as far as I can see.
And I believe that clause should be clarified anyway, because that is exactly
what Admins do when they suspend posting privs. Either make it clear what kind
of restriction you’re talking about, or make it clear that Admins are excepted,
or both.

only because I think it is detrimental to
punish any one that did not break any stated rules.
|
Here we get to un-easy ground. Who has broken rules and who has not is up
for grabs - it is the Admin’s job to make that determination, and we have. I
don’t believe that we need to justify our decisions to anyone except other
Admins.
|
And yet isn’t that exactly what you have been trying to do these past few days?
