By using a bit of profanity perhaps Andy has given his detractors the ammunition they have been looking for to have a go at him, after all he has the integrity to stand up and say what he thinks rather than stick his head in the sand and say nothing when something is wrong. Some people don't like this.
So he said something that wasn't liked, so what? Deleting offending posts would have solved the problem, banning Andy does seem like a piece of 'payback' for disagreeing with a mod.
Its a perverse situation that an honest collector and dealer who freely gives his knowledge and shares his collection with us all (not to mention the fact that he opens his doors to allow fellow collectors to sample his hospitality) has been banned but yet we are content to put up with dishonest, crooked purveyors of crap who sneak in as members under false names.
It smells.
