Forum ban - No Ingame ban - Yes
You can get banned from the forums, very easily. I have seen people get forum bans for less than what CSM members have posted. --

Originally by: Goumindong Jade has had a full permanent forum ban in the past and was allowed to participate.
Full permanent bans ain't what they used to be.
Originally by: LaVista Vista The fundamental role of a CSM member is to communicate. It's a 2 way communication in my mind. A ban will keep you from doing this job.
You must be an INSANE forum ***** to think such a statement. I read the AH and JPSC and a post by the CSM is a rarity, not the standard. Communication from CSM delegates? AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. CSM can't do their job without posting on the forums? You overestimate the power of the eve-online forums.
LaVista Vista, I suggest you actually go take the time (omg, effort incoming!) and read the AH topics, not just the ones that interest you. Note how many CSM repsonses their are. Then go to a topic that you or another CSM member really cares about and see how many CSM repsonses over one line are in that thread. Communication? My ass, more like using the CSM to further your own agenda. Don't bullshit me. --

No, it means one over-zealous forum moderator and a few CSM members with an axe to grind can kick a legitimately elected CSM member for potentially no reason at all.
I think we all can agree that posting something completely heinous like 2girls1cup should be banned and possibly banned from CSM for being such a douche, but you are forgeting that people get banned from the forums for small infractions and that will be exploited to UNJUSTLY kick someone out of the CSM.
I could go on and on with the holes in this topic. I mean you guys used IRC or some chat program, right? Wasn't LaVista Vista (I forget who) kicked from said chat? Shouldn't he be kicked from the CSM? What if my computer just doesn't like IE/Firefox anymore and I can't log onto the forums for 2 weeks, should I get banned from CSM?
The number of ways CSM members, forum users and CCP itself can abuse the system noted in the OP should not be taken lightly.
Also I'd like to hi5 my GS brosefs. --
