In order to put some minds at ease...
Leonidae had amassed 25pt already. He was issued with a Warning last week about an area of his conduct where he wasn't meeting with the expectations of the AUP. For reasons known only to him, he chose not to heed the Warning and was issued with a further Infraction which, unfortunately for him and his fans, took him beyond the 30pt mark and resulted in his ban.
Now, personally, I can't imagine the thought processes of someone on last chance status when they decide to ignore a Warning and as a result I have very little sympathy and, had I been the one who issued the Warning I'd have also issued the subsequent Infraction - though I wasn't.
I don't intend for this to spark a discussion into what Leonidae did wrong, or the AUP, or which moderator did what. It's just an explanation for those of you who are/were his friends - he was on last-chance status, received a Warning which he ignored and was banned.
