It is not our policy to make general announcements when members are banned. My post above was made to respond specifically to the confusion which arose on this thread and to correct a misunderstanding which had occurred.

Davem was behaving in a manner which the moderators and admins of the Downs (who give their time voluntarily to run and manage this site for the benefit of all of its members) considered to be disruptive and contrary to the forum policies against disrespectful and offensive posting. Despite many warnings, he continued to do so. In light of this, and having seen a considerable amount of time spent by the mods and admins in debate over the situation, the Barrow-Wight made the decision to ban him without further explanation. Davem was well aware of what led to his banishment.

It was a decision taken in good faith, in what was considered to be the best interests of the Downs. It is not, however, a matter upon which any of the mods or admins intend to engage in further debate.
