Lots of reasons, just read his most recent posts. But you'd probably be better off just asking John (D) about it.

Was there one post or thread that closed the deal? I've been trying to keep up but things have been moving quickly the last couple of days.

Probably right about when he started making personal threats of physical violence. When John threatened to do away with the forum, and GR, he kinda started spiraling out of control like a rabid animal. About ten or so of us recommended just banning him and keeping the forum. Thus far, that is what happened. He was warned.

He was banned for being himself.

In a nut shell, Bob has it spot on.

He likely did everything he could to get banned, and thereby get out of his challenge to VR

I think we were only getting a partial look at the real Gr until the end when the full look came out.

My thoughts as well. It got real ugly real fast. I kept thinking that he has to be working on getting himself banned.
