I stand with Pansyface

I DON'T FEEL LIKE I'M REALLY "IN" WITH THE REGULARS ON HERE BUT I ENJOY READING THEM.  

I'M UPSET ABOUT THE TREATMENT OF PANSYFACE, A REGULAR CONTRIBUTOR.

I DID NOT FIND ANY OF HER COMMENTS OFFENSIVE OR DISRUPTIVE.  

I DO FIND THE GRAY AND PINK FONT GO AGAINST ALL KNOWN ADVICE FOR ACCESSIBILITY FOR A VARIETY OF DISABILITIES INCLUDING VISUAL IMPAIRMENTS.

I WILL THEREFORE LOG OUT FOR 48 HOURS (THE LENGTH OF HER BAN).

PANSY...HOPE TO SEE YOU AGAIN.

    I'M WITH YOU WATERY. 

    I LOVE THIS FORUM AND THE PEOPLE ON IT BUT I THINK THIS LATEST DEVELOPMENT IS BEYOND THE PALE. 

    I'M OFF.

    HERE'S TO YOU PANSYFACE. X

    It's for 48 hours only and there are other ways of being disruptive on a forum that don't involve posts visible to all.   We don't know and don't need to know but, given the way Daniel and the team have coped with and responded to all the many polite posts, strongly expressed complaints and sometimes aggressive diatribes about the forum changes do you really think they would have blocked her without due warning or due cause?

    I'm sorry she's been blocked - for whatever reason - and I hope she will return.

    I also hope that the forum will soon be more easily accessible to people with visual impairment.

    Lastly, I wish PF and her husband all the best and all the courage needed to deal with her illness.

    Well said Watery,  I agree too. There have been others that have been allowed to continue posting after being quite offencive.

    As you can see I cant sleep tonight. But logging off now, maybe see you in 48 hours.
