So, you're basically saying that the good folks who spend their time, sweat and blood for this site, for free, run it into the ground because they put personal issues above their love for our hobby.
That's crazy.
Matter of fact, it's a slap in our face.

Not necessarily. I've been in plenty of debates on the site where I had to eat crow. The issue comes with airing in public how the staff conducts personal business with individual members. That's no one else's business and is in the TOS to not post in such a manner.
I usually agree with you oddball, but all due respect if he chooses to voice a personal concern, why should site admin punish him if they have nothing to hide about their dealings? Obviously not a matter of transparency, pharaoh posted just as much of the personal interaction 2 posts down as OP did, which I see nothing wrong with besides that due to your post before it seems hypocritical. Mainly don't see any problem with pharaohs post either because OP chose to post it first, which i think is fine in turn because its his concern.

Most here realize you are doing this for basically nothing, which most appreciate, I just think it's a bit like aquascape lately deleting negative feedback posts. He was easily disproven by pharaohs post and now comes off looking like an idiot, don't you think a month ban is a bit harsh? I don't even know the guy, but I'm willing to bet from the way he writes the smart people on this forum would have figured out he isn't as credible as you pretty quickly even if pharaoh didn't out him.

Just my opinion, don't have a horse in this race.

I'm pretty sure the people who built the site have sweat quite a bit. But Li is just going to use his son to simply dispatch you while you're busy being a keyboard warrior.

But while we're questioning abilities I'm going to ask why you can't type "earth" and "because".

This situation is quite different then the situation with Aquascape, IMO. In Aquascapes case they didn't do what was required of them. The result was they received poor reviews which they tried to hide. In both instances they where wrong. In this case the only one who did anything wrong was wilson4.

Wilson4 violated TOS, a contract he agreed to when he joined the site; which included having actions taken against him if he committed violations. Pharaohs explains that this isn't the only thread wilson4 created about this same situation. Since wilson4 didn't like the answers his other TOS violating threads got he continued to post new ones. How many times should he have been allowed to violate TOS before an action was taken? How many times should he have been allowed to tell his side alone before a Mod/Admin finally gave partial disclosure in an attempt to explain his one sided posts?

MFK is a free site and I don't really think obeying the Terms Of Service is asking too much. Nor do I think it's fair to compare someone violating TOS and the repercussions for said actions to Aquascape taking money for a product they failed to deliver and trying to hid that fact. MFK's TOS including Vendor status is readily available for anyone to see. So I don't see how MFK is hiding anything except wilson4's rep by not making a public display as to the reasons he's being asked to apply for Vendor status.
