ucp isnt under a world of there own & thay sure as hell dont have there own set of rules in the real world when it comes down to admin breaking staited law.
See if you make such bold statements Mr. Fpv maybe you should do your homework instead of trying to burn someone in front your net buddys to make yourself look cool, because the truth is if you insist on banning people because of something thay dont agree on you will find that you wont have a leg to stand on when someone cracks the shits and shuts this site down threw a court of law.
Please please please do your homework and dont come back with immature remarks that you just think of in your head.

The member in question posted a large amount of inappropriate language and insults both to members on site and people off this website.
Like it or not, that is not tolerated by UCP, and action was taken against the member. Infractions were given - look at them as warnings - to say that his actions weren't tolerable, yet he continued on and had thus been served with a ban. A single day ban. Not exactly like it's the end of the world, he'll be back within 24 hours. Look at this as another warning. If he repeats his actions, he will be punished again, but fortunately we're a friendly group, we do enjoy the company of members, and we're more than willing to give them a second chance.
And to the member when he returns, you're a good bloke to hang around with at events, I had a good time chatting with you. Just realize that there's other ways to bring the message across other than swearing and insults.
Finally, back to the original subject, I can definitely see why he's shutting his website down. I've posted very few photos recently, and the ones I have have large watermarks on them because my photography has been stolen without my consent a number of times. I don't mean my photos appear on a forum somewhere through an admirer, but rather they appear on advertisements, print media, cd covers etc. WITHOUT my consent. This is unacceptable, and I daresay that Michael Plitkins is under similar circumstances. If other people stand to gain from his photos without his permission, then he has a definite right to take action. And I fully understand his decision to shut down his website until further notice.
