Question on ban announcements

these are from previous dances on this rodeo

John1990 has been banned for a week for consistently over-the-top aggressive posting leading to various infractions.
John1990 has been banned for a month due to a serial offender infraction (related to a long-standing problem with unnecessarily aggressive posting)
John1990 has been banned for three months for infraction points relating to trolling or baiting, and some carry over points from his previous ban.
unfortunate that it had to come to this but there was no real idea whether the guy was spiralling off a cliff or doing a bit.

I mean you can go two ways on it. Was his act killing the forum? Didn't seem so but maybe. Same time, has the forum lost anything?

A 6 month ban is a sledgehammer. Take it from me. But maybe that's what John wanted.

I can't believe I ate the whole thing
You could see a ban coming a mile off. Almost as if he wanted it. He didn't engage in good faith and just seemed to be posting for the sake of it sometimes.

Ymaxxxx was a bad poster but perma'd?

What he do. Links if possible plz.
He has like 150 posts and somehow already got himself a ****load of infraction points. Plus he was lying about his location, plus every second post was a horrible troll of some kind. He just seemed to be a generic anti-Indian troll, no point keeping him around.

what exactly did he do in specific terms

like a bit more specificity than "he was a bad poster/ he did a lot of trolling"
Made like half a dozen infractable posts in the space of 24 hours coming off a massive ban when he'd been around for about five minutes beforehand.

Also as a general rule, if you pretend to be from somewhere and be someone that you aren't, you're probably getting banned on general anti-multi hygiene grounds.
