Are infractions being scrapped?

[Agesilaus]

The other circumstances should of been marked down somewhere. Linking to a circumstance which wasn't warned/infracted is just an excuse to ban someone, really...

Depends on what that circumstance is to the moderator/administrator banning the member. It's a bit hard to forward claims of complete unfairness because the reason wasn't divulged to the public or because certain people remain in the dark of the reason(s) why or what they did to deserve earning the ban. And I have already acknowledged that all bans might not be deemed as 'fair' by some people, but that doesn't mean all of them are.

Let's discuss examples and say someone decides to use the forum to produce a small quantity of posts, then uses inappropriate language which is sufficient enough to provoke a warning/infraction and then comes back on later to do something serious like majorly spamming the forum with a real life image of someone else, an image which is high in disturbing detail and targets a specific member of the forum (bullying in other words), it's only logical to permanently ban because the intentions of that individual is to cause trouble profoundly, and refuse to interact with the community in a civilised manner more than anything.
