I heard that back in the day the admins were so harsh they'd ban people for the smallest of things, even for no reason whatsoever. I'm not sure if that's true or not though.

Not that I remember, but there were "Bat Weeks" where Mellis came down extra hard for infractions. That's probably what most people recall as being unfair, since one pretty much had to keep up with the forums to know when Bat Week was occurring.
