[Sticks]

I have created this thread so when a poster is banned, the moderator banning them can give a short explanation as to why they have been banned.

I have seen this done on another forum quite well.

My suggestion is that the moderators lock this thread, and only unlock it to give the reason why a poster was banned. That is how it works on the other forum and avoids long arguments from those might disagree with the action.

You could also make it a sticky.
