In a recent talk with Boo boo, he informed me that he is willing to behave and wants to come back to MusicBanter and join us in bantering.

I for one think he deserves a second chance. Who is with me!?

EDIT BY CONAN:

Alright, let's get a little project going, eh? Let me make this clear that this chart won't change anything - but perhaps will just give us all a little more clear a perspective.

Boo Boo's Parole

Pros

Cons

Legitimate entries will be added to the list.

First, he's well past the 2nd chance. He's honestly probably closer to 10.

Secondly, why? Has the Prog forum been less hoppin?

No one thats ever perma-banned comes back with a new attitude. You know why theres only ever been 3 who've had to ask, because everyone else who posts here isn't enough of a raging **** to get perma-banned in the first place.

He's had emotional barriers since he showed up here. He once got pissed at me and thought I hated him because of a fight over Sting. STING! I had to be told by another poster that he was even upset in the first place.

Don't get me wrong, the guy could be alright when he wanted to be. I liked his opinion, but for ****s sake, I think we've had enough.

I think he's a nice guy, I think he's funny, I think he contributes to the forum at least more then fucking guitarbizzarre, and I think the reason he was banned was outlandish to begin with. Everybody fights in the shoutbox, its really not that big of a deal.
And I think if upon his return he gets harassed, you should give warnings to said harassers.

Well... I don't know him aside from what I've heard of him. He seemed to have a good taste in music, and from his posts that I've come across he doesn't seem too bad. Personally, I believe in allowing people another chance, but then again I don't know enough about this to really give a decent answer. I think it would be interesting to see what would happen if someone could put him on "parole" (if that's possible - for all I know, terminating a ban may not be an option).

Yes, it has. It's for the most part just Tore with Skaligojurah and myself occasionally dropping in (along with a few others).

EDIT: Didn't see the poll. Voted 'yes'...

TheBig3

Not a reason.

Wasn't meant to be. I was just answering your (sarcastic?) question.

TheBig3

In my round-about way of reasoning (which always pissed Boo Boo off) I was asking "what is our benefit, as a community, with him coming back?"

He already had like 10 bannings, and countless warnings. The thing that got him his years ban was an argument in the shoutbox where he specifically made light of his unwarranted sense of invulnerability from the due process of moderation. He laughed at the mods being weak in terms of their treatment and specifically stated that if he got another temp ban he wouldn't change his behaviour at all.

That led to him being given a years ban. If we let him back early, those mods are just playing into exactly what boobs was banned for making light of.
