I'd like to say again that (unless I'm much mistaken) the staff don't technically have any more power than before. If they all decided they wanted someone banned, they could ban them. Or as Steel is saying, perhaps not even that many need to agree. They're not obliged to tell anyone the reasons, as far as I know. So they could quite easily nuke someone without this "power", if they decided to.
All this represents is putting forward a more formal way of doing something they could already do, which they perhaps would agree was the best cause of action but because of their sincerity in sticking to the rules, wouldn't choose to do.
Everyone will be made aware of this, and undoubtedly anyone being such a fuckwit as to need this extreme measure will have caused upset aleady and can be warned. If they ignore this and carry on like a fuckwit, poisoning the forum in general, on their head be it. It's not much to ask members to refrain from photobombing multiple threads with disruptive behaviour. I know this is subjective, like all rules are to a degree, but if someone is upsetting most of the forum with their behaviour, that's a bit more than "an opinion".
That's my opinion anyhow
