I didn't have any issues with the guy, but he himself admitted to re-registering under a new nic when he was on a vacation. That's like insta-perma-ban, right?

So why are so many people all up in arms to unban him?

Plus, with all the notes he's been leaving on bbzzdd and such, I'd never ever ever ever let him back even if he brought me 20 virgins!

Am I the only one that feels this way?

Yes. Especially on Anandtech.

Apparently he got a vacation for whatever reason. Then he re-registered under a new name to get around the vacation.

So, now, he's trying to start this campaign to get reinstated. But calling the mods names and crap isn't gonna be the way to do it IMHO.

I'm not trying to convince the mods one way or the other. I just happen to think they were justified, and don't understand what basis the "unban" crowd is working from.

I don't really care either way, but the point of re-registering was to display how hypocritical things have become in P&N. BBond is quite obviously the permabanned BOBDN, yet nothing is done. shinerburke was asked not to post in the area for some ridiculous reason, started up the ____ Mango persona and...received a ban.
