Ok. I've thought this over and decided.

@Future

Prof will get a Chat Ban but rather then an indefinite ban, I would go for a lengthy period of 6 Months up to 1 Year (Your choice, Future) from this point in time.

I am the type of guy who believes in redemption (softy that I am) so I don't do or believe in permanent bans unless it is absolutely needed. Prof, as much trouble as he is to some people, isn't a complete nuisance like I've seen some people.

I do this respecting your status here Future. You've been a mod much longer then I have an Admin, so I'm meeting 75% - 25% your way in this discussion. And a year is basically infinity for some people.

If, for whatever reason, he causes more outright problems for you after the fact (before, during or shortly after the Ban is lifted), you can upgrade his Chat Ban to infinite. Even more problems, then I or another Admin will step in and give the proper procedure.

@Prof

Understand that Future has been given the powers of a Mod for a good reason.

His authority may not be as high as mine or Zoro's or Maddog but he is at least above you in those terms. As I said, he's been in the game much longer then I or Zoro have so i have to respect that. We Admins can't simply waltzs in and make every decision a Mod makes pointless becuase otherwise, what's the point of them?

Since it is only you who is making the complaint, it stands to reason Future is NOT abusing his powers for his own ends, otherwise others would be making complaints (in an orderly manner) as well. Therefore, I have to trust his Judgement on this manner.

Take solace in the fact you have not been Perma-Chat Banned at this time.

If there's not anything else, then I call these procedures to a close.
