I thought that would get your attention, nice title eh?

I have read several threads in the past few weeks that make reference to Banned users who have returned under new aliases. I am first going to congratulate these folks on there persistance and resourcefulness. I am curious though about how these users, and the rest of the AO community who have never been banned such as myself... feel about their return.

For those of us who have never been in this uncomfortable predicament:

Is it benificial to AO for these folks to again be lurking in our forums?

Should we ban these folks again as we learn of their return? Would it do any good? Or do you feel (as I do) that we should give them the opportunity to redeem themselves. Then neg the sh*t outa them if they screw up again?

For those of you whom this thread is in reference to: (you know who you are)

Do you plan to be a benefit to AO? Or are you back simply to cause more trouble?

Do you expect the entire community to welcome you back with open arms? Or just the "friends" you made here who have supported your antics in the past.

Please don't anyone take this the wrong way, I am simply curious as to what everyone here thinks about all of this, and am tired of reading between the lines in these forums. Don't let this thread become some infantile flamewar either, lets be intelligent adults, and by all means be nice.
