      I was recently banned for my use of caps in this post, not much follow up other than the notification I was banned. I do see the original post was edited by leocg and now locked so no "replies" can be accepted. My feedback would be perhaps a notification of the problem to let the OP modify their post before arbitrarily banning said user would be more friendly!

      The 4 words I had originally put in all caps were removed!
      Here is a copy of the email I was sent.

        The forum setup does not allow users to edit posts after more than 30 minutes - it would have to have been edited by one of the moderators anyway. I can say it wasn't me who banned you, but otherwise discussions about moderation are not really allowed (everyone feels slighted one time or another and they always turn into "flame fests") so this thread is closed.

          @sharkyca For information:

          The topic was closed for being a duplicate and also an informative/tutorial-like one, so no need to keep it opened for discussion.

          Regarding the ban, the use of caps menas that the person is shouting and it violates rule number 6.
