This thread is in protest to Rioter's recent banning. While I am aware of the reason why and some of what happen behind scenes, I think banning a member (who has been a member since 2001) that was contributed quite a lot to this site for something that is a very small thing in my opinion.
Not to downplay any dis-respect at MsM that rioter might have said but still, he was a valuable member.
For those in doubt.....
Case Study
Try looking through those and see what you find. While being an ass he has also helped out many, many, many people here on AO as well as in IRC. There are several other Seniors and Addicts on here that have contributed nothing to this forum inluding myself. While I think some punishment should be addressed to him I don't belive that banning his account perm was a good solution. With so many trolls and skiddies on here lately and very few of the Seniors still currently posting I would think that we should allow an active and helpful member back.
I am double posting this in both GCC and Addicts. Please only reply to GCC one. I am doing this to make sure all can see this thread.
Please give your opinion on this.
