I PM Joe Daniels on the TGM site about the bannings, this is his reply.
titled: unfortunate bannings
"I have not been informed by anyone who has been banned. We have had some problems with spamming as you know.
If someone has been banned accidentally they can email me and I will fix the problem. "
Although the site is inactive it holds a great body of work- Yoda's 1st year of posts. It is worth reading/saving them. btw- Lynn's has only been posting just shy of 14 months- geez, seems like a lifetime ago.
