^ Actually... exactly.

Over banning contributes to killing lower traffic forums faster. Seen enough good people lost over trivial things and the after affects on their respective forum.
Some folks may not like someone, but others may, nothing wrong with that. But it's selfish to want someone banned when others may enjoy them just because you don't like them. This was the hidden message behind that ABF poll.
Even timeouts are bad because they discourage returning. And it's funny, it's also always the people encouraging over moderation that say the forum is getting worse.
Most did not like the reason the person in my example was banned and we lost some great members as a result.
EDIT. There was some personal info posted that I forgot to mention too.
Oddly enough, the guy's a member here though I've not seen him post in ages.

The years pass by.....
And the neo-gewbacks are still at it....
And as if anyone would think twice about a prestigious invintation to such a lovely forum as those glorious gentlemen over there.
Give me a bit and I'll see if I can't get him sorted.
@Baloo, Rot would be the 1st to admit he's trying to lightly troll you but knowing him outside of that video of him that got published on Tosh 0.2 or w/e that show is, He isn't trying to be disrespectful. Bored maybe, but that's about the limit of him. lol
Edit: Your account is sorted now.

As disturbing as that video was, you've got to hand it to rot. No shame and no line he won't cross to tell off someone who he feels is being a douche. It's been a long time, and I was just a lurker in those days, but if I recall that was his response to that writer from Retro Gamer who was getting into it with everyone on the forum after they called him out for errors in his article. Rot really let it all hang out after that, pun not intended. You've got to respect that level of dedication.
You guys should find that thread from back in the day. It was magnificent.
