Being a moderator at stackoverflow (where we also saw former mods going berzerk and ended up banned or self-deleting their accounts) I fully understand BippyM stance.
And he disclosed the private conversation he had with DamienD, and also globally why he was banned (I myself noticed the change of behaviour, the trolling with whdload, arcade ports, and generally not-so-nice behaviour), but doing that he did you a favor. In general moderators don't disclose why users were banned.
In stackoverflow (or meta) someone who posts something like "why this user was banned" receives post closure or deletion. So EAB is rather transparent after all.
