Perhaps people should arm themselves with correct information before casting ideas about what really went on with Roo.
As Roo knows he is on a holiday, for his actions , comments, profanity and threats against no less than three other members in another thread.
To then have a sock puppet account appear to create more havoc for him and make a lot of noise didn't help his case a lot either.
I don't see anyone complaining that diesel fitter was also banned after abusing pretty well anyone who owned a Prado and also violating the sock puppet rules.
Now if any of you were put in the position of the threatened members, and with quite clear threats about how said member was going to visit and repay you for something you said with most likely violence in the near future.
And we as moderators did nothing, would that be fair to you?
What would that create for the future of the forum?
Rules are in place as is common sense which it seems was thrown out by the offending parties in this case..
Troublemakers no matter who they are, will not be tolerated. Holidays will be given so they have time away to consider their actions. Excessive and repeat offenders will find they may be removed for good. If they continue to violate and receive infringement points, they effectively ban themselves.
If Roo decides to come back when his holiday period expires,that is up to him. If he doesn't, that is his choice entirely.
Someone recently started a thread on double standards, and claiming we as admins/ mods overlook some people doing wrong. They themselves and others they know received holidays for making threats, it is a global thing on this forum. We don't pick and choose.
We cannot and will not overlook some to please others, its a level playing field. No exceptions.
That is a fair and level method of keeping this place running civil.
Apologies for taking the thread off topic, please continue the original discussion.
