That is kinda harsh. Banning for mis-posting? Heh. Isn't the internet about free speech? Posting in the wrong forum isn't that big of a deal. Also, yes, grammarical and spelling errors CAN be obnoxious, but it's their own fault if they want to make themselves look less educated; it's nothing anybody needs to punish.
As for flames, those posts should be deleted. For the most part, they have no value whatsoever and are made just to tick people off. It can sometimes be hard to distinguish when an argument turns to a flame war.
If you don't want to be forced to decipher someone's post...just skip over it. (I have become very fluent in the language of 'bork'...after years of IRC, I have learned to speak l33t 5p34|<, b0rk, and many others...)

FIRST is hard. It's supposed to be. We can't keep giving people a check and expecting them to succeed. We need to stop this model. It takes a village to raise a child but it takes a community to build a FIRST team. - Andrew Schreiber [more]
