Ok, I'm gone.

Shouldn't be banned? You do remember the last few times he was around, don't you? The kid went bonkers.

Let him stay; he hasn't done anything wrong (but he wasn't fooling anybody who knew his writing style and past accounts). I think he's definitely matured.

He would have been banned if he had outright admitted he was JewCon and asked for a second chance, like Einzige was. Though we should have allowed Einzige to stay, too.

Called it.

You weren't the only one, ya know.

That might be true, but he proved himself to be reformed.

What went through your mind that made you think quoting scripture to me would change my mind?

Please stay!
Mods, please don't ban him!

This case is so fact specific, that I cannot render an opinion. But those calling for mercy should consider the precedent issue. Instead of a bright line, we would be going to a fuzzy line, among other things. It seems far better to me, for someone to petition somehow to return, and maybe be on a probation period, then going this sock route. The sock route sort of rewards bad behavior, and that is a negative in my book. Except, maybe there is no alternative to such bad behavior to seek a second chance, or third chance if a soft hearted one.

As I said, this puppy is highly fact specific, and I am assuming the petitioner here, has been under his current sock, an estimable Atlasian. Absent that, it would not be a case worthy of my yammering, I don't think.

Sure, let's let him stay - I'm sure he's matured and won't troll.

While we're at it, let's let everyone back... Einzige, Ogis, hey, why not even let Hamilton back!

And don't forget about TexasIndy and jamespol...

Seriously, people?  99.9% of trolls aren't gonna come back and say, "I haven't matured at all.  I think you should ban me."  They're gonna say, "I'm better now.  I won't do it again.  I promise."

What does it take to ban them as soon as they start trolling again ?

Capital idea!

Well, we could make a "swap". Ban Pingvin instead, let him stay. JewCon is way more tolerable than the Russian neo-fascist.

Problem is that Pingvin haven't broke any rules, that'd warrant a ban.

[minionofmidas]

It's not a very good rule.

This discussion needs to continue. This rule cannot be excused.

Im not surprised by this, for some reason. Klecly always did seem differant. I thought he might of been Feeblepizza when he first joined.
