Guys, I have been a member of this forum for quite awhile. I'm
definitely not a new name around these parts of the web.
It came to my attention recently that a good friend of mine
Readmoremagicbooks, was banned from this site because according to a
private message from Johnathan Bayme his posts were often negative and
not conducive to our art we call magic.
Now, I will not argue the fact that RMMB was very opinionated and
vocal about his philosophies regarding magic. I thought that was a
redeeming quality.
I will also not argue the fact that his opinions were often times
controversial and very challenging, however, they can not really be
classified as 'flaming' or 'bashing' somebody. His response were
basically retorts or questions that were meant to challenge the reader
and to stimulate thought processes and creativity.
Since, I have been a member, I have witnessed spamming and flame wars.
RMMB to my knowledge has only made one irrelevant post, that got
deleted. Everything else has been above board.
