As far as Tang goes he may be back soon. The Mod that recommended he be banned to the Advisory Board mentioned two weeks. Noreaga who was recommended for banning by another mod (neither one by me) may be gone for a longer period. To be banned a vote is taken once a mod has posted a thread in the Board Room with details then AB members vote. Majority rules. I have only recommended one person to be temporarily banned this year, he was back in a week.
