Members only have received this message via logging on and trying to be a mutual participant on both boards , I can only say that I am disappointed in the censorship and uncorroborated accusations against a former member.
Banning of a member of this Forum

Hi everyone
A word of explanation. Today I have banned a member of this forum and deleted his last two rather pointless posts. His user name is “fatman” and he has been a constant nuisance both here and elsewhere over many things, including insulting members, and has in the past caused problems on other sites where he has been a member.
We have only ever banned members in the past who have joined up purely to sell items not connected with Jethro Tull, or who have left spam posts or who have insulted members.
It’s not an action that I have taken lightly and, after apologising to me some time ago about his previous actions and promising not to continue, he has seemed fit to carry on, for what agenda myself and others cannot fathom out.

I read the 'supposed offensive posts' before they were so abruptly and conveniently deleted and found no hint of spam , selling items or derogatory comments about members.
His points were neither aggressive or trolling and I would find myself commenting if I was even inferred to as 'Mr. Twatt' by anyone , let alone a moderator.
For my edification, can you also give specific examples where he has been "a constant nuisance both here elsewhere over many things, including insulting members...etc.."
I feel you owe the man an apology and in the hope of good will , you don't delete my post prior to sending.
Dan
