It is just those that post useless content on the forum then say "Hey, what about my free domain?" are not in accordance to the contest rules and obviously just want the domain name and then they'll never return. It's quality that counts, not quantity.
I wouldn't say we have ever posted mean threads to be honest. Mean and truthful arn't the same thing. We are not saying "Oi you useless piece of (enter your own four letter expletive here), get off the forum". I think everybody is giving him ample oppertunity, we are not biting his head off for a mistake.

I see that some posts he has made over the past few days have been removed (either by himself or eUKhost).

People making mistakes doesn't annoy me. Even if the post isnt fantastic quality it doesn't annoy me - they have put in some effort and thats what counts. Some of us arn't as technically experienced or capable in different areas of web hosting as others but I value everyones useful input, however small that may be.

However I see nothing has changed. He is worrying and was worried about being banned so he obviously must think he is doing something wrong. I have only seen 2 posts by him so far today and my mind hasn't changed. In the first one he contracdicted something that has been told to a potential eUKhost customer by eUKhost sales which isn't helping anyone and in the second one he copied my post from above and just reposted it with other copied content.

So far all I have seen is misinformation, plagiarism and a plee from him for us not to spam.

If he was truthful on the promise to post quality content and he wants to be part of the community how about, as a gesture of good will, he forfeits his post count (for current and future) posts as he seems to completely ignore anything we say!!
