I have to agree, it's egregious in this instance, the user should be permanently banned. The collective of Music Banter stands to gain a lot more then anyone including the user will lose.

Sometimes things just don't work out, better to cut ties now before it gets real ugly.

Another point:

I think people are voting more against CoryAllen2 then they are thinking the choice through. Who cares if his posts are gone, the damage is done, it's the future posts I'm worried about.

I lol'd.

But yeah, coryallen actually makes the forum less enjoyable for me. I know a lot of us have tried to make him change, but he just won't. Maybe in a few years time, just maybe. But for now clean the slate.

he has made 150 threads in 4 months. I don't really care if he is banned or you delete his posts. He doesn't get on my nerves.

Lolrony.

what? I'm surprised he is even aloud back here after making that many threads. And i have made like 10 threads, most which are better than his.

Delete all his posts? This is stupid. From what I saw he was just a young guy who needed some guidance, but instead met 100 members who bashed him every chance they got.

Coryallen detracting from the forums?... there's a thread that links to naked prisoner abuse pictures. But yeah, I'm sure his "trash" like a thread to post new bands in is really making this site turn into rubbish.

His threads are pointless? That's like the pot calling the kettle black (when you make a post like this). Just do it, or don't do it- you don't have to make a fucking thread advertising it.

^ Someone needs to relax a little.

I agree, he is a young man that needs guidance. Unfortunately he's proved to us all that he doesn't want guiding.
If we were to be as hard-line and unfair as you suggest, then corryallen would have gone a long time ago.
It's obvious he enjoys posting and coming here, but it's also quite clearly obvious that his pointless posts and threads aren't being enjoyed by others.

We and countless others have tried everything to steer him in the right direction.
I put him on a voluntary post limit which he couldn't stick to for more than 1 day. He even made an alternative account to dodge around the situation. (perma bannable on it's own)
He's had warnings and infractions for trolling the boards, which have had no effect.
He's had a temporary ban and returned as if nothing had happened. If anything he's got worse.

We could give him a perma ban (which we could have done a long time ago) and within a couple of days the name corryallen2 will be forgotten, or we can give him one final chance. One last wake up call.

If by deleting all his previous posts and rehabilitating his behaviour on MB saves his MB membership, then it will have been worth it.
Especially to corryallen.

He's not being treated any differently to any other member here. If anything he's been given more chances than most.
And like every other member, the fate of his membership is in his own hands.

I don't believe he will change. If he was going to he would have by now. zzz is an example of a member who turned himself around, however I think coryallen is too young and dumb to get that.

*pffft*

sure.

I voted for no. I don't care if you ban him or not, he does occasionally get on my nerves. The rest of the time I just ignore him. But I just don't see the point in deleting his posts/threads.
