No, bruceZ wasn't 'punished' for posting 'inappropriate' thoughts in the wrong forum. He's never been punished at all. Somehow you slip-slides from 'behaviors' to 'thoughts'. Tsk, tsk.
However I do agree with your suggestion to exile BruceZ from Los Dos Politardia... just so he's not tempted to repeat those behaviors.
For your reference, Here is what I posted. The blue is the post to which I was responding. The green is my written response.

The smart thing for BruceZ to do, if he actually wanted to post here... would be to post here.
Why should he want to post here? (I wouldn't if were him).
Quote:
After his quite inappropriate behavior last year, he really needs to re-establish his credentials with the community. He needs to give reason for people to believe he won't repeat any of his inappropriate behavior if re-modded. He needs to show some 'good faith'.
I don't really know anything about his "inappropriate behavior." I don't read the NVG forum or the politics forum or whatever forum in which he posted "inappropriate" thoughts.
However, I do occasionally participate in the probability forum.
Bruce Z. was an asset to the probability forum... an asset that is now lost.
I personally think that's a shame.
Meh... water under the bridge now... but perhaps we can look to the future.
A better, by far, solution, than demodding someone who is an outstanding (or even satisfactory) moderator of forum #A for making inappropriate posts in forum #B would be to suspend the forum #A moderator from posting in forum #B.
Mat (or Mason) would appropriately be the one to do any such suspending.
Just my opinion.

No. I didn't. (That's not to say I do know what I'm talking about... just that I didn't say I didn't know what I was talking about.)
I did explain that since I hadn't read the posts in nvg or politics, I didn't know what the inappropriate behavior was.
For clarity I should add that I believe Mat must have had a good reason to demod Bruce.

Are you still responding to me? I didn't write Bruce was punished. What's with the tsk tsk?

Again, that's not what I wrote.
I think in the future, suspending a moderator for inappropriate behavior in a forum he doesn't moderate would be a better response than demodding him.
That's a different, perhaps clearer, phrasing of my idea (which is probably not original).
You're free to disagree with me, if you like, but please try to get what I write straight.
