I think you are confusing him with someone else. When he first came 
here, he started posting image after image, most of which didn't look 
like he put any great effort into. Not simply inexperience with the 
software, just plain shoddy work. That's not a problem with the server 
admins, but he started posting dozens of images at a time, and chewing 
people out for daring to comment on them. According to him, he was using 
the server for *storage*, not as a place to post things for discussion. 
When people objected, he refused to stop, on the grounds that the 
povray.org server was a public place and he could do what he wanted on 
it. He has started flame wars almost every time he posted. He was 
eventually banned because of a single incident, but he had a long 
history of inappropriate and antisocial behavior.

This isn't censorship, it's kicking out a rude and disruptive guest.
