Have you ever felt oppressed b/c of your opinion?

really? coooooollll. wish i had that kind of power.

Does the banned member know how long the ban is? For example, if the ban was for six months they might think it was permanent and never come back.

Yeah, they will get a note saying why and for how long the banned was.

In my case the infinity ban works miracles with the Trolls.

i hate trolls. they are hairy and stink and stuff.

Someone told me that when you are banned, and try to log in, you get a cute little screen message that tells you how long you are banned for, why you were banned (is that called a 'raison'?), and who banned you.

That 'who banned you' part is interesting. I wonder what the mindset is when the bannee comes back and gets into another scuffle with the banner.

That depends on the person obviously.

Judging from the amount of Socks like the recent banning again of Marcus in the comics forum, i'm not so sure. Deleting cookies and shifting an i.p. Who can say?

Ironic
