That qualification you make when you join Royse777 "and/or his cohorts" is a subjective opinion at best.
Sorry, I don't know what this statement means. Is this in reference to me escrowing fund for one of Royse's projects? If so that's kind of a tenuous connection (at best,) and deflecting from my comment about why this thread is Meta. I'm not here to defend anyone, or argue for or against any one specific person's ban. That would be a discussion I would have in the Reputation board, if I chose to.
Regardless, none of what you said changes the fact that this thread is full of comments that pertain to the reputation of one individual, and that makes it appear to be misplaced to me. If you want to have a discussion about the rules themselves, how they are applied, and what exceptions exist then it would be best to keep that discussion separate from how the mods and admins have handled one specific situation.
