I actually hate the whole banning thing (except for spammers) it tends to deaden the forums (as has definitely been the case with Epic and PMTS forums) and I am happy that fairly heated discussions and their proponents are allowed to exist on this forum.

Many people that have been banned at one time from the PMTS forum have come back and become huge contributers. I'm not a huge fan of the banning either except there have been times when someone's agenda has been to disrupt rather than to contribute and learn and then it not only makes sense but is necessary. Harald used to have an itchy trigger finger. We see very little of that the past couple of years.
