Dear fellow members and board,

We are approaching 48 hours post ban and I still haven't been provided a single reason. In his first email here Ge0rg offered:
> We can discuss the specifc details off-list if you wish
so.
When I had already messaged him kindly asking for an explanation immediately post-ban, still no response.

So I guess in addition to the  previously mentioned things I'm still owed per the CoC I'd like to officially report the entire conduct team to the board for violating the CoC, I expect board to meet in private and come up with an appropriate punishment for them.

Thanks again,
still waiting,
moparisthebest

I want to be crystal clear, the only reason this thread exists is because the conduct team violated the CoC by not contacting me and informing me the reason for the ban, if that had been done I could have either accepted the decision or appealed to the board.

And I'm still waiting...

There's clearly many misunderstandings here on both sides.

No one has told me why or warned me ever, please link to explicit messages that violated the CoC with reasons why from <https://logs.xmpp.org/xsf/2026-06-05>, if the mod team discussed and agreed there were violations this will be easy. The CoC says they already should have been provided.

It's absolutely possible the conduct team discussed this and agreed on the ban beforehand, but since no one contacted me and you didn't say when I contacted you how could I possibly have known? Please provide the exact timestamp of the report and ban decision.

Obviously I have no other venue to ask for the explanation the CoC promises me. I don't believe in secrecy and have nothing to hide, the members need to see these kind of decisions to determine how to vote.

You're literally replying to an email telling you why in a thread where you were previously told why.

so I obviously don't  know if it was discussed and agreed on by the conduct team before the ban

As you've been told several times in this thread, yes it was.

says generally the accused should be contacted first before punishment and that also was never done.

Several warnings were issued by mod team members during the discussion. I know because one of them came from me. It's true no one used the word "ban" because usually the approach is to suggest not threaten...

Please stop using this venue for this, as you've been told. You already contacted board and they are (obviously) already aware of the situation. If you cannot leave this list for the intended purpose we may need to discuss extending the technical implementation of the ban.
