What I can also state is that perm bans are/or were considered a very last resort. The usual routine is to PM to mediate/ request moderation in a moderating & reasoning way ; then progress to a warning or 3 that there would/could be a sit out ; then a sit out on the naughty step - perhaps more than once and sometimes even several times - and then a final perm ban....

If you're talking about Siouxie, she reads the thread and is in contact with various posters by other social media. The channel is there.

Then perhaps, as per my other post, someone in contact could PM to Abner or Abner PM to them to send a message through these lines. I did suggest perhaps DandNHill as they mentioned a FB connection, but if there are more that are perhaps willing, then all the better.

It has just occurred to me that some might maybe think I have some sort of insider knowledge from one side or the other. 👀 I do not.

If anyone wants to send me an email address, I'll pass it along. A couple of points though:

- that doesn't guarantee a reply
- internet feuds spilling into real life can get really weird, really quickly, a throwaway address might be prudent
- I don't know what any of this is about.
