The way banning works is that moderators give warnings and after every 3 warnings a new ban takes place. There is currently no warning for trolling since it is largely subjective if someone is trolling or if their opinion is not popular. Admins (Me, D$, Lu, Stefan, and Decleated) can ban with just the press of a button. When we started the site we allowed moderators to ban outright and we dealt with a lot of complaints. Ultimately we try and make decisions that are the interest of the site, and for most of the last 8 years that means giving the users the benefit of the doubt.
