>Ideally, you don't want to kick anyone off at all, for almost any reason. But there does need to be a "release valve" to get the heated, non-technical stuff outta the technical forums.

Agreed, and I like this OR idea.

I only recall one person being publicly terminated from the UT a few years ago (besides another prominent VFP figure who I think left more-or-less voluntarily). The one who was publicly 86ed was blatantly flaming with extremely crude language, such that almost anyone would agree called for his termination.
