That is not going to happen!


Hell, what Shiner did wasn't nearly as bad. If it's like that, and you wouldn't even consider letting Shiner back, then this shouldn't even be an issue.


Agreed.

Instead, it's open and stickied... odd, huh?
 
IMO, he was given an lifetime ban, not a 2-3 year ban, and he accepted it. Seems simple to me. You want to play, you've got to pay.

Lifetime ban is a lifetime ban, not a "I'll come back when this all blows over in a few years ban".

*shrug*
 
What Shiner did might have been against the rules here, but it wasn't wrong. *After* he was already banned he behaved childishly, but that was after the fact. What Dennis did was deplorable. Despite that, it's been a long time, and I'd be willing to forgive him. However, if you can't see through your own political bias and realize that there are others who deserve forgiveness more, then you might as well not let anyone back.
 
Is it too late for a poll?

I'd certainly give him another chance. He can be banned again, as quick as a wink, if he causes anymore, uh, grave errors.
 
if shinerburke is a definite no as the mod posted, then dennil coming back shouldn't even be an issue. shinerburke got permabanned for way less. lock this thread, there's nothing more to discuss.

Popularity can do some people wonders on forums. Its obvious that Dennilfloss is friends with a mod(s)....
I have nothing against him, but i think that if others cant come back from a permaban for less then he sure as hell shouldnt be.

Why is this even stickied you ask? Think about it.

yeah, what gives?
 
Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice..........



Or as Ian Hunter said, "once bitten, twice shy."



Are we banning everyone that makes a claim and is found to be up to some shenanigans?

I wonder if Flossie comes back if his alter ego Wombat Woman would make a re-apperance?
Haha, about time people started acknowledging that she was just another alterego. It was hysterical how blatantly "she" would rip off essays and whatnot from the Internet and pass them off here as originals.

acutally this thread is misleading. it should be renamed "should dennifloss be allowed to go back to using his old username?"

ding ding ding ding!

how many of you think he's already here under a diff name for years?

btw- why is something that happened FIVE years ago being made such a big f'ing deal of today?!?!!?
 
IMO, the only person who should make this decision is Anand. This is his house, and it was his name that was most affected. It's not like we were the only people who heard about it. This made the news!!! I can't guess how many times this was thrown in Anand's face by the media. It should be his call.

Hey Red, when did the mods decide that WW was his alter ego? At the time you guys vehemently denied this.
