This new management post-SI Bob is less tolerant of caustic posters and antagonists,
I disagree with that. It appears significantly MORE tolerant to me. In a PM to Jeff I suggested they tighten up, announce they were tightening up, and do it.

and personally I think its a good thing.
I agree.

a permanent suspension
A permanent suspension is generally called a termination. JLA will be back on the 30th.

But now that has changed I think, because there was some guy harassing me endlessly on the amazon thread, he had been suspended a few times, and then one day he was totally gone.

know). JLA really is over the line with his constant barking
I hope he takes this as a warning shot and changes his behaviour.
HOWEVER, other people have made posts as bad and worse and nothing has happened. And that includes X the Unspeakable. Some of her posts have been posted on this thread bi Bill.

He isn't. Back on in a few days.

Only he hangs on the coffee shop threads and they are more lenient there.
Not so. Not any more, anyway. That used to be true. Now the only way to keep politics off a stock thread is moderate it. There are any number of what used to be stock threads that are now political war zones.
