Should D3V be unbanned?

Thanatos mentioned having a poll as to whether or not D3V should come back.

I assume this will work as much as the yawgmoth thread did, so feel free to express everything.

Closes in a week.

I have no problem with D3v. However, it seems as though he has scared off some valuable members. I really do not know how or why, but I'd rather that not happen anymore -- so if he were to come back he'd need to not scare off peeps :P.

Taken from the other thread:

All I'm saying is this ban is trivial since he didn't drive anybody away. MJ left for personal reasons and Grav left because posting on a forum is immature and he's somehow above that. You're the only person that was going to leave because of D3V. You guys just need to squash your harsh feelings for each other because you're both some of my favorite posters on this board. Learn to get along. You can't argue that D3V is a contributing member in one way or another. Maybe I'm the only one that thinks that; yes he can be an enormous ass at times but I still think he's valued here.

So, in all reality, I don't think he scared anybody away.

In the real reality, your facts are wrong.

I personally don't really care whether he's unbanned or not. If he is unbanned however, it's my personal opinion that there should be a way for people who didn't want him back to be able to block his posts.

In fact, I think it'd be great to be able to block members' posts in general.

You're looking for this icon , which has been available for many, many years. Since vB3.0 days at least. And you could still block people before that. Right now, it appears when you mouse over the avatar area of a post by a non-staff member.

Oh, well then...never mind. That's probably why I never noticed it.

Which is also my point. If you don't like D3v, simply block him! That's what Medieval Bob did in the past. There's no reason to ban a contributing, valued member simply because you don't like him.

I have a feeling if KA wasn't part of the staff, D3V wouldn't be banned. And no I'm not blaming you or pointing fingers, it's just an observation.

I'm trying to be mature about this. You should do the same.

I won't say the ban was unjustified. To use his own terminology, D3v can be a royal douchcanoe at times.

Nevertheless, on the subject of his being immature, I've found a number of the new members to be much less mature than D3v (obviously because they are younger than he) to the point where this forum is beginning to annoy me.

I miss the random news-related threads he perpetually started, which generally prompted long discussions.

Fuck it. Bring him back.

What I've been saying for at least a month now. These forums are annoying, dude to the influx of young, immature members. It's actually stopping me from posting in threads because I don't want to be involved in childish spam.

Bottom line is this: He was a contributing member that was an asshole at times. But who isn't, honestly? We're all assholes at times, that's what makes this forum so great, IMO. Drama@Zelaron is hilarious.

you mean me right
