WELL DAMN! I get these nasty PMs from CH complaining about him being discussed on a thread where he cannot respond. The only I see out is that rule. And, while I didn't like listing the names either, how else can such a rule work? You tell people not to talk about people unknown to them?
Tell X to remove notoorabout and I'll explain the situation. And where is CH? He's the one who caused his name to appear. Maybe he should explain it.

The reference to asking you to remove the notoorabout from him if you want to discuss it with him is that he doesn't post to or about you since you asked him not to.

Why didn't you just put him on Ignore, if that's good enough for Poet, btw?

Laz also said in another PM that CH had never complained about being named to him.

I'm going to suggest that he remove the names and see what happens. If someone starts talking about a banned person, they can be told in PM. But now you can see how the names came to be there: CH didn't want, understandably, to be discussed where he couldn't reply. Having been "discussed" many times where I couldn't reply, I am entirely sympathetic.
