Actually it was a platinum member who kicked you. The same platinum member who has done this a number of times.
I'll make a change that will remove his ability to report. It's happened too many times.

Is this the reason Bruno is gone?

Seems most unfair. He may be a bit controversial from time to time, but certainly not a spammer, troll or abuser. IMHO.
|
|
|
|

Have to agree.
He got a little shouty last night, but I didn't see anything more offensive than capital letters.
My vote: reinstate.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

As the one he got rudely shouty with, I was a little peeved by his "over-effusive" reply, but it certainly didn't merit banning -- and the only person who really has room to complain about that message is me.

Precisely.
I can see someone getting peeved with your message his was a response to - there are some ... um ... delicate souls ... here who can get "over enthusiastic" when they see even censored swearwords - but his was just shouty.
I see no reason for banning either. It's possible it's a vendetta thing: we know he got banned before.

Given that the problem with the thread is that no-one could tell what the Hell he was talking about, he did take it in a direction that few would have ("you have the right to remain silent", indeed).
I vote he's reinstated because I still don't know what, why, who, or even whether he was celebrating (telling people to change the language of a third-party site explains none of that).

I have a feeling there was liquid happiness involved.
It would explain a lot.

I have a feeling that copious amounts of happiness were involved!

Somewhere between Bob Geldof and DD, I'd say.

I'm mightily interested in knowing how the rest of that scale looks like.

It looks kinda wobbly.

Indeed you are, but you're not coming through as thinskinned to me.

Anyone can say absolutely anything to/about me in fun, but I reserve the right to not accept maliciousness (that's kinda one of the things that being English is about).
I don't think he was being soberly malicious; it read more like he was drunk and bombastic (annoyance level +1), he somewhat strongly implied that everyone was idiotic for not getting his opinion by looking at a wiki page (annoyance level +2), and he would not say what he was talking about (annoyance level +2).
So yeah, "a little peeved" describes it well enough.

I've just learned that some of his 'controversial' post, may be because of using Google Translate to communicate with us...
But even not - he is not spammer or abusive...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Controversial, only if you don't agree with him.
But troll, no.

I second that. 
I think they already implemented that. I even recall seeing the members' names on a member's profile whom they had reported. Not sure why they have undone that now... 
Your time will come, if you let it be right.

Wow, stop, I was being sarcastic ! I don't think public shaming would solve anything, but make it worse !

Oh, I don't always get sarcasm. 
But seriously, they did implement public disclosure of the members who had voted a member on his "closed" profile page and I think it was a good idea. Not sure why they have discontinued it though.

Does this mean you will instate Bruno?
I suspect the shouting was a case of alcohol too far...
