I think it would be a great idea for people to find out why members are being banned.
Well, perhaps a description of which rules were broken. I think posting personal/private messages is a breach in respect and judgement. To be told someone was colluding in a negative way through PM in a manner that was deprimental to the forum is much more sincere that actually posting the text.
It's just a question of respecting peoples right to privacy no matter what they may have done.
Sorry I disagree. It is clearly stated that PM's can be monitored. Furthermore, if you read some PM's of people who were banned, you can see that they were planning something quite disrespectful and rude to say the least. The ban prevented them from doing so.Well, perhaps a description of which rules were broken. I think posting personal/private messages is a breach in respect and judgement.

What are the intentions of everyone else online?:?

We are judged by our intentions and the PM’s proved that their intentions were not as they appeared to be at all.
It was posted on a public forum to insure that people knew why they were banned. It is like (hypothetically) when someone commits a crime, people need to know what crime they have committed to form an opinion. If we were left in the blue without knowing why they were banned and without evidence, we may doubt the mods intentions for banning them. Posting the PM's cleared the doubts from people’s minds (in most cases I presume).I agree, can you also show me where it says they will be posted on a public forum
Agreed, and that is presumably why a forum requires moderators to ensure issues like this are spotted and dealt with.
Are we not judged on our actions then? I simply fail to see how public display of wrong doing is required, if that was so why can't we all access each others PM's to ensure intentions are honourable
another ban this has happened before?hmmm another ban :rollseyes
Can't be arsed.
Have expressed my opinion and switched my PM system off accordingly.

We considered making an explanation thread, but for now we have settled with the idea of posting a link in the banned user's signature which links to the post explaining their ban. The recent bannings have been the result of one banned member's 14 attempts to return to the forum, and a few attempts by another.
