"One thing I would agree with is a 2-3 year ban. This would give certain people a lot of time to grow up. It wouldn't be set in stone - it would start out as a permaban - but then they could appeal via email to their banning after the 2-3 years has passed. If we feel that they are genuinely sorry and sincere about it, then we can let them back in."

That's an interesting idea. To add to that, if someone came back after this period and did something else, then they should be banned for good, though that would probably be the rule anyway.

Take care all.
