#!markdown I don't judge you or NSMB too harshly for it. I really did intend it as something like a vote- for what I'd like to see here. I'm familiar with the Vandeman banning, and I expressed my disapproval of that too (but not in the respective article as I recall). To me, it's obvious tibor96 has been making unreasonable comments and we, your audience, don't need protection from them. Fine that you disagree of course. I don't think I'd be put off if I was a target. My arrogance will likely lead me to establish myself as a target anyway. Perhaps the most significant reason to not ban someone, though, is that it takes away the chance of the banned person apologising or making an independent comment that might be worthwhile. Even if that might be very unlikely. For the purposes of discussion, I disagree with your point that people who tend to find only flaws with offering solutions being as bad as you suggest. I see some benefit in that, if only to challenge others which isn't so bad. But I don't think that tibor96 was only finding flaws. I think he or she was being insulting and unclear quite frequently. And seemed to be setting an extremely idealistic ethical standard. But I found many of the comments quite hard to comprehend. Lastly, I feel bad for you if you if you've had deal with anyone making comments like that on a regular basis. Maybe I've just had a horseshoe up may ass, but tibor96 seems unique in my 38 years of experience.
