No more on this issue please.
All of Mojo-chans posts are now gone as he originally requested.

I said no more talk on this please, it's done.
MojoChan requested deletion, and he's now gone. The end.

--- Quote ---He reported a random thread and just put abuse in the reason for reporting, got that twice. I think that counts for asking to be banned.

Blimey! Without even asking him to expand on that either? Remind me never to trouble a mod with a problem I might have...
He's previously flown under my radar mostly (that is, he's not stood out as someone to avoid or ignore, or particularly to notice in any way) so really it is only this and t'other thread where I noticed things, and what I did notice is that he was polite, didn't use ad-hom attacks and tried hard to explain his point of view by way of analogy. By contrast, he was unfailingly attacked by a rabble verging on a mob that had tasted blood. No, none of you had to pop up and have your say but you wanted to join in on dissing him anyway.
Not a surprise, actually - you see this anywhere a number of people congregate, particularly if they are protected by a screen and hundred of miles of wire. But what was a surprise was everyone basically saying they, in contrast to him, were mature about it. wtf?!? No, really, y'all could have just read what he had to say, shake your head if you're that way inclined, and leave it to the mods. But that wasn't good enough so you did in fact hound him and deliberately chose your words to wind him up. And then felt cheated why he just persisted in explaining his viewpoint without using swearwords or making personal attacks.
Way to go. My view of some users who had crossed my radar has been somewhat altered.

Sorry, you said to not post whilst I was composing. Mea culpa.

Sorry if I was not clear, he used the "reason for report" box to send us abuse. The reported was just the first post on a random thread that had many pages. Couldn't even be bothered to send me a PM or anything.
THE END.
