He was banned for 1 month because of his bad behaviour.
He attacked me in his posts and I complained about it.

I did not save the relevant post and I do not remember the exact content but the
last case was when he said that I understand nothing about order of moves when I
only claimed that statistics about order of moves can be influenced by null move
pruning or by extensions so I do not consider it as important and I never
calculate the relevant statistics.

I also explained later in another post why I think that null move pruning can
reduce the % of first fail high without changing the function of order of moves.

Note that it was not the first time that Vincent is using personal attacks
against people and I think that the moderators were correct in their decision.
