See this message in the "The Awesome Phillip E. Johnson" topic.
Syamsu needs to contact Admin by e-mail, if he wishes to be restored.
Discussion of Syamsu's suspension can be done in this topic.

Syamsu cited the following to me, in an e-mail, as an indication that he currently does have the administration "blessing" to participate outside of the "Free For All" forum:
Elitism and Nazism, started by "The General".
This topic has not been active for a month, and had totally slipped my mind. Mind refreshed, I realize that I too was willing to let Syamsu participate in the above cited "Evolution" forum topic. People may be interested in looking back at that topic. At the moment, Percy has posted the most recent message there.
AdminAsgara, in message 11 above, said:

It has nothing to do with speaking outside of the FFA. It has to do with the direction he attempts to lead almost every thread he participates in. He has been asked to keep that particular direction confined to certain topics in the FFA.
I think her statement pretty well summarizes why I took the action I did.
Looking back at the "Philip Johnson" topic that contained the suspension event, I now see that it was MrHambre's message 7, that was the trigger for Syamsu's bringing into the topic, the material which I deemed objectionable.
All in all, a messy situation. In hindsite, I'm still unsure if my action was the correct thing or not. But I felt I needed to make a decision, and take an action, rather than waiting, and then finding out that I wished I'd acted sooner.
The bottom line is, a suspension need not be terminal.
