I realize she disrespected your person but she did apologize. The chocolate was a reference to Lumptonia, a fantasy. The Lumptonians she insulted were fantasy characters. It's your board and you can ban anyone you want to but I think it's interesting to consider what's real and what's part of a game. Are you the protector of Lumptonia and all it's fantasy characters? Do they have the same "rights" and "obligations" as other posters?
If somebody maligned my butt and called me EVIL I might ban them too but I think I would consider the insult ridiculous enough that any apology would suffice. Was the apology disrespectful of your feelings personally? Or is Hannah being banned for not being respectful of the fantasy characters' feelings?
I'm not trying to cause any controversy,though I obviously disagree with your decision. I am interested to know how you see your relationship with the Lumptonians. They should consider their fantasy quite a success if you've been drawn into it yourself.
