So you're banning two of the most respected posters here for doing what other posters have been doing for years and are still doing... something which has never been a problem so long as it was used for humour purposes and caused no harm or malice.
Is this really how the community rules serve the community, by using the strictest letter of the law. In that case should we expect bannings of pesky members for taking threads off topic too?
Is this REALLY how decent long serving members deserve to get treated?
