"Chat ban"
Ah...well that explains it - soon after joining AH I was dissertating on 200 regarding the mating habits of homo sapiens of the Castle Clan and their near relatives of the canine family - all with a sincere thought towards educating one of our less aware individuals as to proper politeness when sending "private" messages to people they had not been properly introduced to.
Alas...No doubt some confusion arose over certain "technical" wordage I employed in this well meant diatribe and, so, causing great anguish and emotional damage to said individual - they felt compelled to defend themselve from such. Lo and behold an hour or 2 of solitude was my lot in life at the time.
<phhhtttt> ...we all have to eat a little dirt now n' then eh!
