Not for the unilateral part. That's in the Charter.

But if you want to do it for having inadequate evidence, feel free.

Yes, they may be banned unilaterally. May isn't shall, and there was no reason you needed to take immediate, unilateral action over it.

I hate to see the Missus get recalled, I reckon she cares more about TR than 99% of TR's posters. But she dun goof'd this time. Mebbe insteada recallin Febble, we should go on and change the Charter so it sez "aint no unilateral bans, 'ceptin fer spam emergencies."

I mean, if NewUser423 comes in postin about FOSTER GRANT SUNGLASSES 50% OFF RETAIL then I reckon a unilateral ban is the right thing to do, but basin a ban on a rumor aint right. The Admins should be havin a member discussion thread first.

Well, it's fair enough. I should have discussed it with ksen and supernaut first. I guess I figured they'd lift it soon enough if they didn't agree.
