I've never suggested anyone be banned and probably won't. However, this guy came very close.

He seemed to write purely for shock value. There was seldom any logic to his rantings, more normally simple sexist drivel and adolescent comments.

His posts were offensive to women, and frankly, embarassing to many of us men. He wrote and acted like an oversexed middle school student. The lack of respect for others and immaturity in his posts were...well, hard to believe.

He appeared to exhibit the antithesis of the kind of behavior for which fraternity MEN are supposed to strive.

In my estimation, most of the "offensive" posts here on GC are deemed that because a number of people disagree strongly with a point of view or the way something is argued. Sometimes they're offensive, sometimes not. Other times "offensive" posts are simply due to a mistake in writing and/or misunderstood by the offended party or parties.

I don't believe that either of the above were the case with the man in question. I think that he knew he was being offensive, going on with his posts anyway, and sitting back to watch the fireworks.

My feeling is that this ban is justified.
