But that does not address my point. My point was that it is evil to "disinvite" without explanation.
Check the modlog, they usually cite which rule was broken. I think "evil" is a pretty strong word, unfair maybe, but lots of things are unfair without being evil.
They should offer an explanation pinned to the top of the conversation tree. They should be clear and upfront. That's the pro-community thing to do.
A very brief one, sure, I could agree with that. Most assholes aren't worth more than a few words from a mod though. This is the internet after all, trolls abound.
