I'd not be surprised to find an admin who overrides this and makes it permanent.
You've found him, David.
Perhaps I should have told the OP early in the piece, what I have explained to a number of new Members of the last 7 years plus, namely
Just in case of any misapprehension on your part, we are not an official arm nor organ of Linux, just scored the dot org name - we are manned by volunteer staff who share a love of Linux and have varying skills in various departments.
So
(every linux update has an error so stop doing them)
has no valid basis. It is up to the User to let the appropriate agencies know of any issues they have with Linux. That can be expedited with something as simple as a search engine inquiry such as
where complain about linux problem/bug
I was the previous Staffer to give the OP a 3 month "vacation"
A perusal of the following

and
https://www.linux.org/threads/panel-problems.49766/post-229163
can shed some light on why.
All Staff have been extraordinarily patient with this fellow, not the least myself.
It has however come to (perhaps long exceeded) a point in time whereby the Member's behaviour and the wasted human resources of our valued Members/Helpers can not justify the Member continuing to hold Membership here.
I know David
@KGIII will support me in this as will
@Rob and
@JasKinasis and likely a number of you good folk.
Within a few minutes of leaving this thread, I will rescind the "vacation" and ban him permanently.
TIA of your understanding
