Jeff, I don't believe that you've ever mentioned Poserpros to me before. What you said in the thread I referenced was (in total) Yes, the banning process is confidential info, but the banned member has made it public. When I asked 'Where?', I got no answer. So, the answer to my first question (I'm inferring here, correct me if I'm wrong) is: Yes, tutone1234 was the first person to make this information public on Renderosity. That seems to be a clear breach of confidentiality to me. Without it, I wouldn't have known why Entropic was banned because I don't go to PoserPros - I'm not a Poser user (like thousands of other members of this site). I've been to that site once, to register my nick, and that's it. If you regard Renderosity-specific information as non-confidential on this site once someone reveals it on a different site, that's extremely worrying. No member of Renderosity staff should have referred to that information openly unless/until it had been revealed by someone who wasn't responsible for keeping it confidential. It seems to be an alarming misunderstanding of the nature of confidentiality. Tutone1234 wasn't engaged in a private conversation with people who clearly already knew the reason for the ban. He posted to an open forum that can be accessed by over 100,000 members. That's the answer to question 1, anyway. Would someone now please answer the other two questions? Thanks.
