It usually involves an excalation of measures. Warnings first then temporary ban then finally the permaban. I can imagine the discussions around the guy.

Suffice to say, it's about time.

I have to say the biggest benefit of Pengy's ban for me is not being drawn in to being mean to him. He was just so blunt and assertive that I found myself answering back in kind and that doesn't sit so well with me.

There were times that the staff's tolerance has backfired to bite the staff's ass, e.g. that-who-will-remain-unnamed.

There was a certain h0bb1t who gave us a few headaches as well.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Not asking you to name them or anything, but do you mean they were too tolerant? Undecided

I was there then and we let that person remain far too much time on the forum. Oh well, better to err...

Unfortunately he left us with no other choice in the end. We gave him every leeway possible.
