No matter how healthy or beneficial something is, there is a time & place
for everything.
Posting images with adult content on a newsgroup that is not specifically
adult themed is inappropriate, and that should be obvious. As obvious as
posting images in a format that the majority of posters were unable to
view, then insisting that the world should get up to speed and get the
'correct' plugin.

Well, since I quit bothering to view any of his posts after his jpeg2000
binge, I missed all the images in question, yet I approve of the ban, so
obviously content alone was not a factor. This is not a forum for
art/sexuality/religion/philosophy, it is a forum for PovRay. If you aren't
posting for reasons having to do with PovRay, don't post here.

That would certainly seem irrational & extreme to me.  I commend the admins
for removing such a disruption.
