That also creates an answer for me.
NO
At least I never have in the past. And Im fairly sure I wouldnt here. In fact, I find a subtle satisfaction in my posts and offers still creating thankyou's and comments on boards I can no longer answer on. Just create a webpage or a blog (or forum) saying you were booted from that forum and make all your comments there. Someone on the old forum will point there every time the question comes up. Much more satisfying than pissing off all your old peers by deleting the stuff.

Were I to create something, I would say no. On other forums for other games, largely tabletop, where I have actually created content I would want the community to have it even if I got banned. However, the questions are completely different, the category of things I want to happen contains only a tiny fraction of what is found in the category of things that should be allowed to happen.

So you've been banned from several forums?

Of course! As often as its been called for here, you find that surprising? Ive been spanked and demoted on this forum more than anyone I know. Ive also been on Internet since its birth. I was bound to end up on forums whose policies tended more to match those who felt I should be banned from here. There are forums for everyone (and consequently, NOT for everyone). There are also forums, chats, newsgroups where I get to do the banning.

There is also the fact that the more forums someone is on that requires them to be a certain way (forums where you are moderator, or run by friends, or very useful but managed quite strictly, or like Shrapnel all of the above) the more need there is to be on forums where you do NOT feel like you have to be that way all the time. If you only have one forum, you tend to try and force it to be everything.
