I don't think Jon Awbrey is actually banned - at least, I can't recall it. Rather, he 'left the project' rather volubly (on this mailing list especially, to the point of getting moderated) and then, like many 'departed' users, returned under different names. I'm not sure of the specifics.
He was banned after exhausting the communities patience, and indefinitely blocked by User:Gwernol on September 7, 2006. He has since created over 100 sockpuppets. He used them to edit war incessantly at [[Truth theory]], an article filled with his original research, until the article was permanently deleted. Since then he's been edit-warring at [[Charles Peirce]], another article he has filled with his original research. I believe he's edited the latter article with over a dozen sockpuppets.
And he's a frequent poster to Wiki Whiner Central (aka Wikipedia Review), where he's one of several participants who goes on about how horribly corrupt, evil, and useless Wikipedia is, and how big a waste of time it is to actually attempt to edit it... while all the while continuing to come back with more sockpuppets and edit Wikipedia. "Do as I say, not as I do."
