Obi, I look at it this way. I've moderated a popular site for over a year now and know pretty well about these things. Bans should not be something in the sense when "it's up it's up" they should have a purpose, to teach the member what they did will not be tolerated here. Otherwise they'll keep on doing it causing more drama until they finally do something bad enough to get them banned again. Bans must have a human judgment side to them, or they're pointless. If the purpose of a ban is to just keep them away for a period of time, it is for nothing. If the purpose of it is to teach the member actions have consequences, then it has a point.
