Just a minor clarification - both PP and I work for/with Mat & Mason in different capacities, and the modding itself is purely voluntary as it is for all other mods. Since we work more directly with Mat & Mason, they know us "IRL", etc., we've been trusted with some administrative powers that allow us to help out a little more. In my case, some of the administrative powers allow me to set up advertisers' accounts, etc.
In the end, any major site decisions are going to come from Mat & Mason. We might have a little more direct input than others, but they are the ones ultimately in charge.

This would be a question for Mason. But I never really get why it bothers anyone that it's filtered - you can either be more creative with your wording, or be satisfied that our clever posters know what the **** you're talking about when you call someone a ****ing *******.

He gets flamed, and responds badly. Stop that. But give him an option to provide the information about what he knows, if you find that at all credible, please. Has anyone talked to him, personally, about this?
As has been mentioned, there is an ATF thread about this already, but for those of you who are talking like we need to give him "another chance", it would be something like his 10th or 20th. He was always given a lot of latitude here; more so than almost anyone else.
It's also kind of funny to see people who had no idea he was banned and say he should be brought back because he was such an asset - he's been banned for over a month, and you're just missing that asset now? That said, I know a lot of people really enjoyed his posts, and that's part of the reason he was given a lot of leeway, but you should also know if you don't already, that many people didn't care for his posting.
