Admins should listen to the community more, so I feel we should submit the idea for a user to be banned if there's good support and see what happens. If it gets passed, the admins ban that user. If not, they don't. This is just a bad idea. Doing this basically make admins pointless and the way this could be abused is just ridiculous. The community should not be the ones deciding who is banned and who isn't since that just opens it up to witch hunting. It's already been pointed out a million times that petitions aren't binding contracts for admins. They don't have to listen. The reason I'm supporting is so we can have our voices heard by them, and at least have them consider something. I agree that if this did let the community decide, it might lead to witch hunting. But the community isn't deciding anything. making a massive petition thread that targets a specific user isn't witch hunting then? regardless of whether it will get them banned immediately or not That would fall under a personal attack, I would think. But I'm talking about witch hunting as far as the idea that the admins will be forced to listen to the community's descision. Obviously making petitions to get someone banned just because you don't like them would be a no-no.
