RE: Peanut Gallery Commentary on the Staff Log of Bannings and such like.

Like I said, I don't doubt that whatever it was he said/did behind the scenes is wrong. I respect you guys enough to know you wouldn't just feel dislike for someone for no good reason.
What I'm saying is just that he is suffering enough already. He lost his life partner unexpectedly all while unsuccessfully trying to start a family together. That's basically like losing your whole family (spouse/kids) overnight, and one of the worse things any human being can go through. He doesn't need anymore "punishment" in the form of hurtful comments. If he has broken forum rules, it is perfectly fair to ban him objectively. But I dont see the point in just clapping back with comments as a way to punish him or whatever, when he is already being punished by life itself.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
