content: Did I miss some drama? Was he somehow banned from participation? Or how can you "bring back" someone against their will?

content: Quote from: bingo600 on May 21, 2018, 08:14:47 amA poll asking "Do you want to bring back user xxxxxxx" is poor form, that's why it was locked.It firstly implies that we (moderators) had something to do with it when we didn't. And secondly you might have N number of people say "no, we don't want you here" for whatever reason, and well, I'm sure you can understand why that's not a good idea.We don't want to encourage the voting of people into and out of the forum.We told zhtoor this, but here we are again encouraging some sort of "petition".

content: Additionally such threads are absolutely OFFTOPIC in metrology.Especially, if they are not only double posts, but also fresh new double threads!Edit: I vote to close this too.

content: Quote from: bingo600 on May 21, 2018, 08:14:47 amI spotted the poll as I was about to spend 2 solid days away from the house and a PC. I did not know if he had been banned or something else had happened. the tone of the poll suggested he was banned yet I did not recall any reports. So I thought the safest thing was to lock that thread. If banned it was out of order and it looked like it would in any case just stir up some trouble.

content: Just to let people know, it looks like zhtoor has taken his bat and ball and gone home, deleted a lot of his posts, and has relabeled threads he started.
