If you are a business or and individual I strongly caution you from using NamePros or WebHostingTalk since both of these communities will allow anyone to make statements against you and then the owners of both sites in total bias will then close your account and prevent you from providing a response.
Both of these communities will make up rules on the fly that do not exist in their community rules and will enforce these made up rules as they so choose. Both forums have owners which are unresponsive to resolution of account suspensions. NamePros more specifically which is owned by Ron James has for the longest time concealed any contact information in it's whois records and further does not provide any on it's site.
Primarily I would suggest the reason for hiding this information is because the owner does not want to deal with any legal disputes or complaints. A quick search on the Secretary of State's website does not show any registration for NamesPros under LLC's or Corporations.
NamePros owner actually also runs the DNOA (Domain Names Owners Association) and further has a few initiatives which would suggest that Ron James believes in fair business practices but I assure you this is not the case.
Alternatively.... if you are looking for a community that does practice fair moderation and enforcement of rules checkout DNFORUM.COM and Digital Point.
Webhostingtalk.com and NamePros.com two communities known for heavy handed moderation!

You know, you should really get your facts straight. I highly doubt Ron was the one who banned you. And, being the owner of the site, hardly has time to deal with asswipes like you.
There are many that know the reason why you're banned, and it's a good one. So don't go acting like you're all innocent and being banned for nothing.
Further, NamePros is an incorporation, not a "corporation" or llc. So it won't show up in your little search.
It's funny you should mention digital point and fair in the same sentence - fair moderation my ass.
