Re: I\'m very sorry
 

Maybe you could explain what it is that Paul said that you think required an apology?

Pointing out that the hyper-moderation that is going on currently is killing the forum, and causing all the conversation to be about the moderators instead of about poker - I wouldn't call that bad-mouthing.. maybe more like a very correct observation.

Totally agree, massive over-reaction again, another good poster gone for no reason.

No, he didn't. Paul wanted to be banned, he got banned, end of story.

He needs to apologize for all the stuff he's been saying about Donovan McNab too...

Good point. If you want to be banned, you will be. Same story with Abdul and his mutual agreement to leave 2+2.

People who are taking this view are overreacting.

First, I haven't banned any WPT forum poster. I have suspended several for posting insults directed at either other posters or TV players. They're all be back after a few days off.

If you don't put up posts insulting other posters or players, you're not going to be suspended. I don't see why anybody would get huffy when following that rule is essential to maintaining an enjoyalble, non-hostile forum.
