If that's what you think, then you clearly don't know how banning works. If you were banned, you wouldn't even be able to see the forums. All you'd get is a message informing you of your ban, along with the reason you were banned. Just ask any of the admins here at the USNW, and they'll tell you the same thing.
As for the alleged "hostility" you mention, keep in mind that you weren't exactly pleasant to us, either. Whatever "hostility" you may or may not have received from our members was a direct consequence of your own hostile and immature behavior on our forums. If you had been more pleasant and mature in your dealings with us, perhaps you'd still have your AIN membership (although I have my doubts, since your ongoing membership in the Union of Nations violated our rule against being a member of more than one union at a time).
At any rate, I'm not here to argue with you on the meaning of banning, or on the reasons for your AIN membership being terminated. However, if such discussion helps Jon and the other USNW admins/officers understand why you were kicked out of my union, I'm happy to consider it a convenient side-effect. Nevertheless, I have no interest in discussing this matter any further with you.
USNW admins: To avoid cluttering up this thread with further discussions regarding Agunter's removal from the AIN, I encourage you to PM or Skype me if you want more information on this subject.
Thank you,
