Well, I happen to be indirectly responsible for Kadgar's infraction, and I personally think this is indeed preposterous. Ridiculous. Setting new lows. Or hopefully a misunderstanding, which is my best guess.
But really, I simply do not know what to think. I fail to see how this was offensive or even as much as distasteful. Kadgar answered my question, and he answered it in a polite, helpful and a clean manner, or as "clean" as the question could have been answered. He did not laugh at me, although he easily could have, in the face of my ignorance.
The only reason I see for this infraction is prudishness, which is a simply laughable culprit.
Is it me or is the moderating becoming stricter these days? I used to remember the past when I rarely received any warnings, but this September and October things were wild for me, me receiving a warning every week, to the point where any non-positive post of mine was deleted, no matter how polite it was...
Now, I am not criticising anyone, and most of my discontent is directed at the Frontroom as I am content, knowing that this is the best, friendliest, and cleanest forums I had the privilege of visiting, but still... And yes, I realise that the mods at the Frontroom were most likely to moderate my Frontroom comments, as the I am beginning to grasp the fact that "Kingdom of Peace and Love" may not be a quip... I previously though only politics was not allowed at the Frontroom, but it seems the mods are serious about keeping the posts positive there...
Anyyywayyy, I am exceedingly disappointed Kadgar was apparently given a two-day vacation for his post. I sincerely hope, that at the very least, that post did not earn him more than one point. Also, that Marge thread is one heck of a mess - half the stuff is deleted, posts are disarranged, and the manboob photo was deleted, but it remains in my quote...
EDIT: If Kadgar's post was slapped with an infraction, then for this:
...one should be perma-banned- no really.
