I can't think of anything offhand. If someone's a member in good standing I'll usually just remove it and issue a warning. Insta-bans usually only happen for a) spam or b) someone who posts something awful almost immediately after signing up. In every case with a long-term member there's been a lot of ramp-up and plenty of opportunities to avoid it.
Must be nice.
Man, I'm way delayed with reviews. I've got 4 movies to write about!
I wish The Last Starfighter had a widescreen release on Laserdisc. I'd be all over that

At least twice probably, but I've been too lazy to change my list.
I suppose that's fair. I'm trying to think of the last time I saw a film that might have deserved such an honour - It's Such A Beautiful Day probably comes the closest.

I like the ones that get left unfinished, whether it's because the user got banned (Sci-Fi Slob) or the user left some slots blank and said they'd fill them in later only to never actually do that (Pyro Tramp).

For example, say 9 and 10 you have Scarface and Terminator

You perfer, Violent Crime and Drugs
or The ass kicking robot movie

U pick then you move on up as u go. If you get stuck might as well watch both of them again to see who wins
I'm interested as to why you think reading about different movie plots might help with ordering them on a list - to me, that only provides part of the experience of actually watching the film and might not actually be the best means of judging a movie.

A possible solution would be the addition of a profile top 100 that's basically a longer version of the current profile top 10 this site has, but that might detract from the top 100 threads being such events.

Obviously not referring to spam.
