Stephen - although you have often been a valuable contributor to the NANOG list, you received your "last warning" about list AUP violations last spring. Because of your non-operational post below, and your gratuitous mention of Hitler, which could be offensive to some, we have removed your posting privileges from the NANOG list for a period of four months. Please refer to the AUP: http://www.nanog.org/aup.html Susan Harris, Ph.D. Merit Network/Univ. of Mich. On Wed, 13 Oct 2004, Stephen J. Wilcox wrote:

Of course my understanding of revoking posting privileges is that you cant post to the list.. not you are imprisoned in the merit dungeons, i think that punishment is reserved for Bandy/Husan/etc
However I do like some humor being injected onto the list, so long as the SNR doesnt diminish too much it can help to inject some life inbetween the 'paging bob smith' / 'anyone help me configure bgp' / path mtu / urpf cyclical debates.. actually we've not had Hitler discussed for a while, perhaps I can start a thread... ooops

Now perhaps this is a little off, but given the logic that you suggest his mention of He Who Had a Short Mustache might be offensive (by merely mentioning the name)... Aren't you therefore guilty of the same offensive violation? Gratuitous mentioning does imply that there is a context, and the context is something that would/should/could become offensive. *shrug* Seems odd. Humor is good occasionally. Oblique and non-meritorious censorship, however, is not. Bear in mind, I apparantly haven't paid attention or noticed any of his past behavior that may have warranted this. But it seems equally counter-productive to the operation of the list for what he did as what you did in order to let him know that.

Yeah, I noticed the different sender when I went back. (ah well...) Need more caffeine today. :) (Although it's hard to drink with the hole left by the fishhook) Scott -----Original Message----- From: D'Arcy J.M.
