In the past Eric, Ice or whoever would traditionally accompany a banning with a post announcing as much and indicating the reason(s). Seemed to me like a very effective way of both enforcing the rules and reminding everyone else of the consequences of not doing so.

Of course Eric can do whatever he wants, but this business of causing posters to disappear in the night for no discernible reason greatly diminishes his credibility IMHO.
