See, here's where I get all muddled up:
Yes, I believe the first post qualified for a warning, and posting it on two boards would have qualified as well. Although that's where it's a bit blurry: first offense, never been warned before, new to the site, etc -- so probably only one warning for those two issues.
Even though my gut says that I'd want more to happen if someone posted that about me.
I think what's happened here has a lot to do with the perceived unfairness of Matt being blocked, while the original poster was not. Part of the problem, I believe, was that this happened at a time when there was no one right here to step in. And by the time GG came along, things had really escalated. But there are all sorts of threads to this web, having to do with the problems if new people were treated more harshly than people who've been here a while, you know?
I don't know. I am just glad this is Dr Bob's site and not mine -- I don't have to decide these things, he can have the headaches... ;-)
