The man had a sense of humor that everyone related to. He wasn't name calling out of a mean spirit, he was simply playing with people, and they knew that. I have witnessed hatred, name calling, finger pointing, political and religious wars from other bloggers that didn't even compare to how light dknowles was with his posts. I understand that you have rules, but making fun of a screen name hardly constitutes a banning. What are these sensitive writers going to do when the real critics of the world attack their fragile state of mind?
