Well... Maybe I'll get a DNP from you too because I post the odd post over there. Maybe 3 or 4 in the last month or so. (Actually I could go check I was praising their individual stats feature that even I could understand just yesterday). But I do have to say that I have absolutely no idea what is up with you and that site.
I wanted to reply to this:
> You say you think 6 weeks was too long, but why did you bring it up here if this wasn't the intended consequence?
If someone attacked me or posted to me after a DNP request I'd jolly well bring it up. Because it is not nice to be attacked. And it is not nice to be posted to when you are trying to get some space from a poster.
Would I forget about it in virtue of the block length that the poster is likely to get? No - I would not. Its about getting people to stoppit. The intention is to stop them doing that again. The intention isn't to have a nasty punishment delivered (at least it shouldn't be).
But then I have ideals about rehabilitatory justice rather than retrubutive.
