To all the moderators,
Do you think it is fair to censor the word 'porn', especially after considering there are thousands of posts that contain that word? JSW has censored Tequilaboobs and mrfrosty for using that word. If you check, there are hundreds of threads with the word 'porn' in it. see for yourself.

JSW has threatened to ban Tequilaboobs before, and it looks like he is the type that holds grudges, as he just banned Tequilaboobs for using the word 'porn'. Is this abuse of power? and moderators, dont join ranks because he's a moderator. i expect a fair and logical response. Thank you.

WarcraftIV - woot!

Deal with this in a PM, it should be dealt with privately, only then if you get nowhere do you go public.

Hmmmm, odd 1st post for a Newbie.

If members have been warned by Mods and disregard the warnings then there is only one person to blame.

He was banned for the personal insult not the word porn.

First post eh?

You don't think they can see who you are from your IP, huh?

Anyway, yes, if you have an issue with the board management, keep your laundry in a private message to one of the aforemetntione porn haters.

Anyone who receives a temporary ban receives a notice like this:

77478

Per the information on that ban, both members have been permanently banned.

As others have posted, any issues should have been taken up with either the Contact Us (http://forums.macrumors.com/sendmessage.php) link at the bottom of each forum page. Or via PM to one (http://forums.macrumors.com/showgroups.php) of the mods. He was banned for the personal insult not the word porn. From what I saw of that thread, I'd agree with what you said.
