Morning..

I was sick/ill/dying all weekend, and didn't get a chance to get on the board much.
I get to work thisĀ  morning and get an email from Tom saying he has been banned from WWW.SOHC4.US , and that was the extent of the email ...

Did I miss something that "big" that the mods felt it necessary to ban him from the site ?

As I said, This thread is not meant to start any trouble what so ever, I am just curious to see what happened/Lead Tom to get banned ???...

After much discussion amongst the mods, we decided to ban Tom and DG for 14 days to allow them to cool down and either make up or persue their commercial dispute elsewhere.  The demise of "El Cheapo" was Tom's own doing.

There is no doubt that we need lively personalities to keep the forum interesting, but we have to draw the line somewhere.

I've locked this thread as I don't want another 100-odd posts on whether we did the right thing or not.

Both will be welcome back in two weeks - I hope they do come back.
