LOL @ the thought that someone is keeping tabs on anyone who posted something negative so they can ban them months later as some kind of vengeance.

I believe he chooses to use the account that is his.
Hint: It's not D.S.

And it's an insult to all the moderators here to suggest that their moderating decisions are guided by whether posts show respect to MM. Your posts show a serious misunderstanding of how things work around here, which is understandable since there's no reason you would have any knowledge of the inner workings of the site.

I find this totalitarian action reminiscent of an Orwell novel and am extremely disturbed by it. This self serving and rather petty action has; however, allowed me to understand the origin of this thread's title. That's not an insult, it is my point of view regarding censorship of free thought in what is suppose to be a free society; please don't minsconstrue one for the other.
Using phrases like "totalitarian action reminiscent of an Orwell novel" when discussing one person's tempban on a privately owned forum, I would hope this post is meant as a joke.
If you are actually serious, the bolded sentence above seems to indicate you don't get around these forums very much.
