We didn't think his offense justifies a red card, but we needed to make him shut up for a while, as he was all over the message board. Since he didn't have a valid email address, ignored requests to provide a valid one or contact the moderators, his account was barred. He would have been reinstated a long time ago if we could figure out how to contact him. Amir
