Hear, Hear.
Unpleasant arguements like this can kill a list.  Newbies generally (in my experience at any rate) tend to lurk for  a while and see what a list is like, in the case of arguements like this they will often run for the hills before ever posting anything. And as for the arguement that the banning of the Abanes subject was unfair to newbies who hadn't heard of him they can either use the search function on Yahoo (which personally I despise as I think it's a little useless on occassion) or they can do what I did and ask for people to fill me in *offlist* whaich several people did including the Mods, thank you kindly everyone who answered by the way.

If an advisor says to me "My liege, he is but one man. What can one man possibly do?", I will reply "This." and kill the advisor.

  Greetings from Andrew!
  The lesson?  Amanda appears to be correct.  You don't
  like the rules, leave. No two ways about it.  Either
  you accept the rules or change the game.  You chose to
  be here, you had the opportunity to ask about things
  not covered in the FAQ(s) and had access to the
  hosts/modertaors.  Instead, you choose to have a
  rather (IMO) immature temper tantrum that does no one
  any good.  Were I asked what chases off newbies, I
  would categorically state that, in my direct
  experience, people who choose behaviour patterns like
  yours do so, *far* more often than does the moderation
  style that I've seen here and in the archives.
