a simple notice like Vincent has been banned due to insulting other members
would be sufficient. They may close the thread immediately after the first post
just to give a notice. There is no need to give detailed explanations and so on.

As I read the above posting I was sure it was wrong. I was very surprised that
it was true. I always thought in CCC moderation and banning is the last ressort
and won't be done silently.
