Are members being banned?

It is posted on another board that at least one member has been banned very recently, probably today. Coupled with the revival of the respect and tolerance post:
As a group member, I'd like to know what's going on. Do I have that right??

Still nothing from the responsible I see. Shame. Real shame. Wondering what it all means, eh?

Members being banned and posts, replies being deleted (which were not offensive) without request, consultation or discussion with other Admins, Community Leaders, or even the involved members themselves.

This was posted yesterday and there was a chance to respond. The only reason I bumped this. is for an explanation. Do more to less.

Surely the reason for the ban was known at the time as it was done as a well informed decision, without conflict of interest on personal grounds. If the admins feel there is no need to explain a ban, they could just say so. I would be interested there though, because I didn't see anything posted, then deleted that warranted either a deletion or a ban. Unless I missed something later. Karen were you approached before the ban and informed of any wrong doing?

No, I was not forewarned. Only Banned. Then Gailly sent out a forward to who? I don't know, but it came in my PM also with accusations.

What she was doing right before the ban was deleting my posts to the new discussion I wrote. Then I tried to post again, and it said I was banned, and that was the End of me for her.

Then she sent me another PM today which I didn't apprectiate either. What it sounded like to me was a threat!

serenity94 ... seeing as you asked for a translation ....

"Attention!

Anybody who does not agree with the Imperial Leader will be excluded! (ausgeschlossen literally means 'locked out').

Everything is in order.

Thank you very much :o)"

Additional: "ich bin einverstanden mit Ihnen" literally means "I am in(side)-understood with you" (you can't translate it exactly), so it means more than just "agree".
