Of banned LF users with more than 7 edits, one stands out, and another is mysterious. The one with the most edits and upvotes, etc., is obvious, and then there is one more, H-G Branzell, with no apparent reason.

No other users with more than 7 contributions have been banned.
Update 1/22/2017.
Lenr-forum software has been improved. One can now see short bans, with duration as a pop-up. Right now, we have:
Henry
This member limits who may view their full profile.
There is a lock icon right now for Henry (it doesn’t copy). Moving the cursor over it shows the ban length. “The user Henry has been banned until January 23, 2017.” For permanent bans, the “until….” is not shown.
Anyone who uses the cover of Voodoo Science as their user icon on lenr-forum is trolling, ipso facto.
All the trolls.
mmm…. we could call a response like this “trolling,” couldn’t we? While LF may be banning trolls with few posts, I only went down to 7 contributions, 5 users have been banned with 8 or more contributions. Three might be called trolls, perhaps, it’s unclear, they could merely be deranged. Two not, as far as I could tell. Present company excepted, then, what about HG Branzell? Active for about 10 months. Why was he banned? There is no clue that I could find. I could guess decent reasons and I could guess poor reasons. Apparently the same user, from before registration on lenr-forum,

on Mats Lewan’s blog. His comments there seem to be better informed than most of what was being written at the time, in early February, 2015.
Or perhaps this, from 2014, on JONP: http://www.journal-of-nuclear-physics.com/?p=861&cpage=5#comment-1009720.
(the WordPress installation is apparently set up to prohibit some links in comments. I will fix that, in time. For now, a link with http:// is converted to not display. Without http:// but with www. at the beginning, the link is then displayed with http:..supplied. Downright weird.)
