If you're not willing to ban posters making improper posts in the forum you moderate, then you shouldn't be a moderator.

Do it yourself.

Dynasty, I am certainly willing and even eager to do it. But when I banned jokerswild the first time, Mat said he supported the banning but questioned it only on the basis that it might be perceived poorly due to the fact that I was also the target of attack. This situation is similar, as the "new" jokerswild has just called me the Grand Dragon and compared me to the Ku Klux Klan.

Don't worry, if nobody else does it, I WILL do it. I did however receive a LOT of flak on the forum after the first banning from posters who felt I that I should have recused myself (naturally, the only ones giving me flak about it were those who also disagreed with my political views). So maybe there is something to be said for having someone other than the target of attack actually execute the banning.
