Again, I have to quote the scripture (posting guidelines):

1)
Quote
Members will not publicly question a moderator's decision.

All moderation concerns should be addressed in a private manner, either by private messaging or emailing the moderator in question


Whoever of the mods decided to delete his account doesn't need to answer to any of us. And we are all in breach of the guidelines for posting in this thread.

That being said, I think that if he had a lifetime ban on him. And that was the reason for why he was deleted, it was very unfortunate that he was allowed in for as many days as he was. Both to him, and to the community as it gives unclear message to both parties, and many here considered him "fritt vilt" - Fair Game.

Whatever other reason (multiple acount, fraudulent behaviour, foul mouth) is a concern between mods and Mr George Campbell.

Posts of a libellous nature are not allowed.
Everyone has a right to their own opinion, whether you think it right or wrong. Posting false information about an individual is not only bad form, but could become a serious problem, both for the poster, and for Amiga.org itself.


I am no lawyer, but speculating and insinuating about a persons mental health can be construed as of a libellous nature.

It's all fun and games, until someone gets sued ;)

I'm sure the laws are stricter in Norway and the UK.

But american court rooms are imfamous, and american lawyers in particular. It's all fed by urban legends, poodle in the microwave, slippery sidewalks and hot starbuck coffees. Granted these are not issues concerning free speech. But still, any legaleese is expensive. Even when you're in the right.
