Again, Off topic. I will stop answering after this until we get back on topic.
Being trashed is one thing and being banned is quite another. So what is your stance on this? Would you ban (temporary or whatever) users for posting such comments or refrain from doing that? You see, I'm quite explicit about my attitude here and don't beat about the bush. As I said it as well, if mods start banning users (with or without a signature) for shit posting (and that post is an instance of just that), they will end up heavily abusing their power. And would have to ban half of the forum users in the interim at that...
That's why I'm rather skeptic about individual bans just for shit posting (meaningless comments adding nothing to a discussion)
I would ban him and everyone else who constantly shit posts. They would get the usual treatment, 7, 14, 30, perma. It is not an abuse of power, it is doing their jobs. A mod's job is to clean up and prevent spam. That means that most of those shit posts would be deleted or trashed, and the users tempbanned as a warning. If they continue to shitpost, then eventually they will be permabanned.
