Is Viva Hate even truly banned!? I had a look back at some of his final posts, and while he got a warning for 'inappropriate behaviour' it doesn't say "banned" or "on timeout" under his name like it does for every other person who has ever been banned. It only says 'well-known member'.
Maybe you know for a fact that he is banned but it was my assumption that he left for one of (or both of) these reasons:
1. He built a reputation here over nearly 15 years which he chose or felt compelled to wreck by posting all his pornographic fantasies and using this website and the people here as fodder when he had previously kept the two separate. Bored and searching for new kicks, he found it by detailing his fantasies to people like Skylarker and realitybites who knew him for years but had never seen that side of him. He's what the zoomers call a 'coomer' and after he detonated his reputation to achieve his cheap satisfaction, he couldn't stay because there was nothing of him left after that; he had forever altered how the people here viewed him. Of course some people, like Dave, started to view him more positively, but that's Dave -- there's no accounting for that man's taste and he's perhaps the worst judge of character on this website.
2. Viva got spooked because someone found out his real name and they began posting cryptic references to it anonymously. He thought it was me! He PMed me and tried to get into my good graces but I wasn't interested in being more 'fodder' for him and getting subjected to his mind games so I didn't reply. He got nervous that the anonymous poster was going to contact his family and that his real life and fantasy life would collide. He would lose all control at that stage, it's not something he could easily talk his way out of, so in an effort to prevent it from happening he concocted a story about getting banned and seemingly disappeared. I could be wrong and maybe he did get banned but I thought something along these lines was what had happened
