Here's one for the 
files as it shouldn't be necessary at all. Due to some abuse heaped on some of BP's volunteer mods, there is now an infraction in the system for Ban Whining.
When returning from bans, or via email during a ban, some members argue about whether the ban was deserved, sometimes quite persistently. While all bans are subjective to a degree, all infractions, especially those resulting in bans, are reviewed by the mods at large, and sometimes changed or reversed after discussion. If there is something we clearly missed ("I was referencing this horrible post to make fun of it"), let us know. (Please don't email Clarity for this; if you can't PM, mods can be emailed from their profiles.) Otherwise, assume the staff has already discussed whether the infraction should stand, and that further debate will result in an extended vacation.
The Ban Whining infraction adds 25 points (resulting in an extended vacation), and unlike most infractions, points expire in 7 days.
A list of infractions is here.
Question: I lost it for a minute during a game and was banned. I'm embarrassed. Am I really welcome back as though nothing happened?
Yes.
