As some of you might know Ron decided to leave this forum a few days ago in an abusive attack on me and the other moderators. After that we have received ongoing serious threats from him. Three of the moderators including myself have received serious threats, harrassments and extremely abusive emails/ICQ messages. All but one of these threats were made after his abuse and his decision to leave.
Breaking our rules is one thing, but making serious personal threats and harrassments is simply unacceptable. As a concequence we have today made the decision not to allow him to post here anymore.
We will accept discussions about our rules in public on the Site Feedback forum. We will however no longer accept or participate in public discussions about actions of the moderators, as a direct result of the events during the last couple of days. That includes discussions of this decision. For the very same reason, the SI thread has been removed.
I'm sorry to hear this, I thought Ron have maybe been 'above' this.
