Well done mods. |

Re: leng jai's ban
Quite nice to see quite a few of the more sensible MTF posters (as few as there are) agreeing with this decision.  |

Re: leng jai's ban
I have imposed a self ban from posting in the 1 million to zero thread until Leng Jai is unbanned.

Re: leng jai's ban
I need to add a cheer for the mod decision to change the rule on the duration of a ban and make a distinction between fun trolling and malicious intent trolling. So thanks for considering the requests from posters and acting on them.
