I see significance to the fact that the most recent posts by both Mitchell76 and shack were on April 4. It's very possible that they received coincidental match penalties. The Toronto Passions contest probably has no bearing on Mitch's departure, so shame on anyone who assumed Philip/ @Toronto Passions had used 'blue privilege' to make Mitch 'sleep with the fishes '.
It's always easy to confirm if shack is currently on a temporary ban. He has enough posts and reaction points received that he normally appears in the top 20 for both in the Members category. A handle on a temporary ban is removed from both lists until they're reinstated.
The fact that posts by both Mitchell76 and shack can be located using Search means that neither has been permanently banned. shack's posts also still include his 'custom title' - that would be replaced with 'Banned' if the timeout was permanent.
It looks like no one else noticed shack's absence enough to take note.
