bans from the board (one was technical - the other one was actual), and I've had maybe 100+ other warnings or penalties over the years, I think the moderation lately has been significantly less overbearing than it has in times past. There are times recently when I've posted something that was definitely outside the rules. Maybe I didn't realize it when I posted it, and maybe I did it intentionally hoping it would slip through, but in virtually all the cases in the past 4-6 months, all the mods have ever done is give me a warning. From my point of view, it's been unusually light-handed moderation around here lately.
