112. "you can be banned without ever even going there" .... yes.

Some mods use the BOG ban list as an adjunct to a personal ignore file.
Getting into a debate with one of them, and winning, could find you in BOG perdition.

IMO the BOG is overly regulated with mods having too much individual discretionary power. I don't see how that helps any rapprochement of (the image of) Obama with a "left" that feels neglected. The idea is contrary to public statements that Pres. Obama wants a "debate". I don't doubt Obama's word.
