red dragon: As a moderator of general chat, your personal opinion can have a great deal of influence over your moderating decisions. It sounded like you were telling antichrist that a name change might help in his situation of being banned on general chat board. I dont think moderating decisions should be influenced by a name that a person chooses to use, especially since the names are already approved by Fencer and/or his staff. And even though you stated it was your 'personal' opinion, it is still advice from a moderator of a board he is banned from. You cannot respond to a person looking for advice about a moderating decision on a board in which you are a moderator and claim that your advice was purley 'personal'. IMHO.
