LOL...You really wouldn't know, to be quite honest with you!

Have you ever had a ban?...Wait never mind a ban...Have you ever had so much as a warning for being controversial? 🙄

then what would the point of public forums be?

and people would only whine and bitch in the private forums (not that they already do anyway)

Not always - I recently got a forum ban [with no prior warning] for my posts in one of the DanVM threads.

Had you ever had posts erased about cheating before?

They keep records on stuff, which if I understand correctly we are not allowed to do.

We can forget about something that we may have said months or years ago, but they have it in their records. So, we may have had prior warning and just forgot about it, because it happened so long ago.

Some of us are more concerned about Chess!~ 😉

I don't remember. If so, it was months ago.

In any case, I'm not arguing against the ban; I'm just saying it shouldn't extend to private forums.

That's pretty funny; coincidentally he was banned from the site one day after that thread was closed by the Forum Mods.

Exactly. SG, pull your head out of that orifice, smell the roses and go play chess somewhere else. You're bad enough at it to be accepted almost anywhere...??

This is probably all pointless (see Thread 115937), but I'll throw my hat in with SG and the OP (Big Orange County). Forums mods patrol the public forums, not the private. IMHO, their bans shouldn't exceed their jurisdiction. Let the clan leaders and club admins who patrol the private forums handle their own enforcement (or not) as they see fit.

I like how you say 'exactly' as if you understand what no1 wrote. 😕
