   That's a very accurate summation of the sequence of events, the cause   
   and the effect.   
      
   The fact that I was, right up to the point of being banned at   
   Straczynski's demand, hand-moderated would also indicate that the   
   moderators had no problem with what I was posting up to the moment   
   that his high and fucking-mightyness decided it was a problem.

   do you have to be!  Precious tw*t.   
      
   Paul (expecting people to accuse him of homophobia now, and expecting   
   them to be 100% wrong. Perhaps I'm not talking sense, even for a Brit)
